Developed by Vankrupt Games, Pavlov Shack is the Quest version of the popular PC and PS5 VR Shooter Pavlov. Initially released in 2017, Pavlov has evolved past its origins as a military shooter into one of the most fully featured FPS games in VR. Players can access weapons and vehicles from both the modern day and WWII, fight zombies and superpowered predators, and play hide and seek, all in the same game. Go up against some of the best players of tactical shooter in VR with Pavlov Shack.

“Pavlov has been the pioneer in community-driven FPS gameplay, and we will continue to develop with the community in mind,” said Dave Villz, Owner of Vankrupt Games. “We are looking forward to seeing what the community creates within this new version of Pavlov.”

Pavlov Shack comes with the updated Modkit 3.0, new tools that allow multiple mods to stack within servers and allow modders to build out various maps within the same modpack. This will provide faster iteration of existing mods, and make game modes separate entities from the maps they support. 

In addition to the 300+ maps already available, Pavlov Shack will launch with 3 new maps:

  • Harbor: A new map set in a small coastal Swedish town where local fishermen and small cargo couriers used to inhabit before the insurgency started. This map is best played on Search and Destroy, Team DeathMatch, and King of the Hill.

  • Pinehill: A new map set on a Canadian logging company's compound serving as a forward base of operations for NATO. Designed specifically for Search and Destroy, but Pinehill is also complimentary with The Hide, Infection, Gun Game and One in the Chamber. 

  • Container Yard: A beloved map returns, taking place in a shipping container lot in storage and transfer station based in Kentucky. Play Container Yard with TTT, The Hide, Infection, as well as Deathmatch.

Pavlov Shack provides players with fully fleshed-out game modes, including:

  • Search and Destroy: Team up in this classic 5v5 competitive game mode where you must attack or defend the bomb objective with no respawns. Your aim, positioning, and communication skills will be tested. 

  • TTT: Use your social deduction skills to uncover the mysterious traitors in this casual murder mystery game mode. With different roles, objectives, and gadgets, players have to reveal who is secretly the murderer or get away without getting caught. 

  • Zombies: In this co-op mode, find new weapons and discover the secrets of the map while you survive waves of zombies with your friends as each wave gets harder and harder. 

  • Hide: Nine players must find the Hidden, one super-powered predator controlled by the 10th player, as they pick players out one by one. Look for clues, and communicate with your team, or else you will all be dead.

  • Prop Hunt: It's time to play hide and seek, but you turn into props around the map! The other team must find the suspicious objects that could be players. No trash can will ever look the same. 

​​​​​​​

  • ​​​​​​​Traditional FPS Game Modes: Experience tried and true game modes such as Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and Gun Game utilizing Pavlov’s visceral gunplay in a more casual setting.
