About this game
NOTE: This game requires a Meta / Oculus VR headset and controllers (Rift S or Quest 2 with Link).
Bag your limit in a one-of-a-kind VR experience!
From one of the designers of the best-selling Deer Hunter and Bird Hunter series of the past comes a thrilling new hunting game, designed and developed from the beginning to be played in VR!
The Hunt
Deep in the immersion of virtual reality, keep your eyes peeled for doves and your shotgun at the ready. But be sure that your target is a dove and not a crow or songbird or you’ll have to pay a fine for breaking the game laws!
Earn money for each dove that you bag and spend your earnings to buy new guns or “power ups” for a day (such as highlighting downed birds to make them easier to see). Choose your shotgun from a wide assortment of pump-action, semi-auto, side-by-side and over-under (in 12ga, 20ga, and .410).
Bag rare banded birds and see the location where they were banded and the age of the bird on special certificates in your farmhouse. Can you collect all of the 40+ band locations? Other, even more rare, birds await you in the field as well!
Your Hunting Land
Explore as you hunt your choice hunting lands in Texas and Arizona, land that totals more than 1000 acres of prime dove habitat. Your dove hunting paradise contains sunflower fields, hay fields, high desert wilds, stock tanks and more. You hunt with a full 24 hour day-night cycle, so you can use your headlamp to get to your hunting spot before sunrise or find that bird that you downed just before shooting hours closed at sunset.
The realistic dove AI means that you are much more likely to find doves feeding in the early morning and evening, roosting through the midday, and sipping water and picking up some gravel in late mornings and early afternoons. You'll find both White-winged and Mourning Doves during your hunts!
Doves can follow different patterns on different days, meaning that spot where you bagged your limit on a previous day may not be nearly as busy the next time you hunt. It is important to know where, and when, feeding and watering areas are…and where the birds roost, as you may kick some birds out of their roost by walking through!
Hunt Your Way
Hunting Life VR: Dove Season allows you customize your hunting experience to be what you want it to be. Do you want a realistic hunting experience with just a few doves that can spot you if you’re not in cover? Go for it! Or maybe you prefer tons of doves with no non-game birds? We’ve got you covered! Want to forget about game laws and just go out and have fun bagging birds with no limits? You can do that too!
For an added challenge, create a hunter in "Hunter Mode" (introduced in version 1.1) that locks in difficulty settings and removes the options to purchase special items that make your hunt easier!
Action Challenge
When you’ve gotten comfortable with hunting doves in Dove Season, be sure to try out the Action Challenge where you are set in the path of a never-ending flock of doves and you must down as many as you can before time runs out! Special silver and gold doves are worth more points and they add to your time. Stringing hits together will increase your score multiplier. Action Challenge takes it all: speed, accuracy, target recognition!
Hunting Life VR lets you enjoy the outdoors your way!

Patch NotesOfficial
Update - Patch 1.2
Patch v1.2 adds a new hunting area (more than 550 acres) in the rugged high desert of central Arizona. The hunting area is inspired by the area around Cave Creek and Carefree, northeast of Phoenix. Added: - Arizona Map - New Stands for Action Challenge in Arizona - White-winged Doves (more common in Arizona, but also found in Texas) Fixed: - LODs on many tree models improved to improve visuals and performance - Rare bug with birds falling through terrain - Rare bug with Action Challenge giving double credit for the same bird - Very rare bug where player could be stuck in Action Challenge - Colliders for some tree models larger than they should beRead full article on Community Announcements (TomShif)Patch NotesOfficial
Patch - v1.1.0
Patch Notes for v1.1.0: Added: Bird Spookiness setting - Controls how likely birds are to see you. When birds detect you, they will speed up, dodge more often and often turn away from you. Added: Hunting Pressure - When you down a bird in a certain area, pressure starts to build in that area. On low settings, birds will rarely care about past hunting pressure, but on the high settings, birds will actively avoid flying to or through the areas of hunting pressure. Added: Hunter Mode - When creating a new save, you can choose to enter Hunter Mode. This mode locks in the following settings, which cannot be changed: Bird Spookiness: High Hunting Pressure: High Bird Population: Low Spawn non-Game Birds: True Enforce Game Laws: True In addition, daily special items cannot be purchased in a Hunter Mode save. Added: New white skinned over-under shotgun rewarded for an Action Challenge score over 10,000 (it will show up below the Action Challenge buttons in the menu barn). Fixed: Tree LOD culling issue that was negatively impacting performance, especially on lower graphics settings. Fixed: Lightmap issue that was causing lighting and shadow artifacts on terrain. Fixed: Very rare stat tracking issue resolved. Fixed: Very rare issue where movement controls would get stuck moving in a certain direction Fixed: Rare issue where semi-auto shotguns would not accept reload shells Fixed: Rare issue where doves would go to roost and not pick up their daily pattern again. Fixed: Issue with legal baggable ambient animals not showing up in the trophy room upstairs in the farm house if bagged outside of hunting hours.Read full article on Community Announcements (TomShif)Patch NotesOfficial
Patch - v1.0.9
Added: Two hand weapon option. If this option is enabled, you must grab the gun with your left hand with the left grip button (and NOT the right grip button) to aim and fire. With this option enabled, you MUST have your left hand gripping the shotgun or the gun will not fire. With this option disabled, you MAY still grab the shotgun with the left hand, but it is not required for firing. Letting go of the left grip button or pressing the right grip button (which is required to open barrels on side-by-side or over-under shotguns and to slide the action on pump shotguns) will snap the gun back to default facing. Note: Two hand weapon use is still a work-in-progress and will be further refined as development continues. Fixed: Weather transitioning instantly. Should be smoother transition now. Fixed: Issue with reloading semi and pump where extra shell could end up being loaded (actually was more like “queued up” for loading when a shot was fired, but resulted in being able to shoot 4 times). Fixed: Issue with over-under sometimes registering two hits on birds. Fixed: LOD issue with poplar tree models causing drastic pop-in Fixed: Issue with non-bird ambient animals sometimes falling through terrain Fixed: Issue with birds taking off from roost sometimes starting below the terrainRead full article on Community Announcements (TomShif)Patch NotesOfficial
Patch - v1.0.8
V1.0.8 Patch Notes Fixed: Weather incorrectly updating Fixed: Score keeping on clay launchers not registering hits correctly Fixed: Graphical artifacts on some video cards when using Oculus OpenXR runtime Fixed: Bird AI distance checks were ignoring update frame commands (should result in a slight performance increase). Fixed: Corrected number of birds in medium and low population (too many would spawn in certain circumstances) Added: OpenXR control schemes for Index and Vive controllers Added: Sign to tutorial barn. Changed: Renamed ‘Hunting Vest’ daily purchase to ‘Deep Pockets’ Changed: Break barrel shotguns now snap to fully open and fully closed (though there is a small 5 degree window where the barrel can be open, but not open enough to eject shells / load Changed: Adjusted 3D settings for ambient sound effects to give more varied apparent directionsRead full article on Community Announcements (TomShif)AnnouncementsOfficial
