Knights of Fiona

Knights of Fiona approaches the JRPG formula from an uncommon direction by building the entire adventure around virtual reality. Rather than adapting a conventional role-playing game to a headset, it attempts to make the player feel physically present as a knight inside its fantasy world. Developed and published by CharacterBank Inc., the game combines first-person action, party-based adventuring, story-driven progression, and cooperative multiplayer with the colorful presentation associated with anime-inspired RPGs. The result is an interesting blend of familiar genre ideas and VR-specific interaction. The adventure takes place in Gallia, a world shaped by a long history of conflict. One of its most intriguing ideas is that powerful thoughts and emotions can become tangible forces. Hatred has manifested in the form of dragons, leaving generations of warriors struggling against creatures that represent something deeper than ordinary fantasy monsters. Defeating individual dragons does not necessarily solve the underlying problem because the resentment responsible for creating them continues to exist. This gives the setting a thematic foundation centered on emotion, conviction, and the consequences of prolonged conflict. Knight Commander Fiona provides the story with its central purpose. Through a binding oath known as a Gesh, hope itself can be transformed into strength, and the player joins the knights gathered around her cause. This premise fits the game's emphasis on companionship particularly well. Party members are not simply combat units occupying predetermined roles; the narrative presents cooperation and shared conviction as meaningful sources of power. It is a suitable concept for a game designed around experiencing an adventure alongside companions. Combat is one of the clearest examples of how Knights of Fiona distinguishes itself from a conventional JRPG. Battles unfold from a first-person VR perspective, requiring players to participate directly rather than choosing attacks from a menu. Swords, bows, and magical abilities offer different styles of engagement, with physical movement and aiming contributing to the experience. Swinging a weapon or lining up a ranged attack naturally creates a different sensation from pressing a controller button, while large enemies benefit from the sense of scale provided by VR. The three-member party system is particularly important. Players can undertake quests with companions while playing alone, but online cooperative multiplayer allows up to three people to adventure together. This arrangement encourages complementary approaches during encounters, especially when party members use different weapons and abilities. Fighting alongside actual players can make battles more dynamic because positioning, communication, and coordinated attacks become meaningful considerations. VR also enhances the social aspect by making companions feel as though they occupy the same physical environment. Solo players are not completely excluded from the intended experience because companion characters can fill the remaining party positions. This preserves the core group-based structure without forcing everyone to organize multiplayer sessions. Even so, cooperative play arguably represents the game's most distinctive attraction. Seeing another knight physically engaging an enemy while providing ranged or magical support produces the sort of immediate teamwork that is difficult to reproduce in a traditional third-person RPG. Outside combat, Geogallia functions as an important hub for the adventure. Instead of reducing downtime to a series of menus, the game provides a handcrafted location where players can explore, encounter NPCs, accept quests, and experience story sequences. Areas such as the station and seaside surroundings contribute to the feeling that Gallia is an inhabited place rather than merely a collection of battlefields. This quieter side of the experience is valuable because VR benefits from environments that encourage observation and exploration instead of constant fighting. The anime-inspired visual direction complements the premise well. Characters, creatures, and environments favor stylized fantasy imagery rather than realism, giving the game a recognizable JRPG personality. Full English and Japanese voice support also helps character interactions feel more substantial when conversations are experienced face-to-face in VR. The presentation may not compete with the production values of the largest role-playing releases, but its artistic direction is appropriate for the type of adventure it wants to deliver. Its free-to-play structure lowers the barrier to trying the game, although additional purchases and story-related content mean players interested in the broader experience should consider how much of the adventure they ultimately want to access. More importantly, the game remains fundamentally dependent on VR hardware. Anyone expecting a normal desktop mode will find that this is not the intended way to play. Steam Deck compatibility is consequently extremely limited. Knights of Fiona is a VR-only PC experience and requires compatible VR hardware, so the Steam Deck by itself cannot provide the equipment necessary to play it as intended. It should therefore not be considered a practical native Steam Deck game, regardless of whether portions of the software could technically launch under SteamOS or Proton. Players looking specifically for handheld play should treat it as incompatible for normal standalone Steam Deck use. The game's greatest strength is ultimately its willingness to commit to the idea of a genuine VR JRPG. Physical combat, cooperative three-player adventuring, AI companions, an explorable hub, narrative sequences, and a fantasy world built around emotions becoming power give it more identity than a simple VR dungeon crawler. Its niche hardware requirements and developing level of polish prevent it from being an easy recommendation for everyone, but players who already own suitable VR equipment and enjoy anime-style role-playing adventures may find its combination of immersion and teamwork genuinely appealing. Rating: 7/10

jrpg и этим всё сказано, пустой и максимально плоский мир для вр совсем не подходит (но все равно сделано красиво и интересно хоть и не без косяков с черным небом в камере) боевая система ну за 3 квеста обучения сложно сказать что-то прикольное есть но это хуже чем в Shadow Legend VR, теперь самое худшее что есть в игре загрузки и их много, можно играть одному но без интернета нельзя что означает нужду в сами знаете чем а у меня приложением и двигло юнити мне выдавало ошибку пока не закрыл сами знаете что корче в игре есть интересные моменты но без русского и терпения читать (хоть и можно всё проскипать) игру покупать не стоит

不難操作 好玩

公开测试时中文缺字库，到正式版未修复，繁中缺的会比简中少一些 公开测试有zh线，正版版发售几天后取消了 有部分剧情做的不错，剧情解锁会卡等级 一个战斗bgm从头用到尾，后面藏了一首歌 关卡怪的种类没几个，多数是换个色，养成提升主要是武器特效 个人总体评分：5/10 剧情视频：https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1wvYn61EMy
