About RUMBLE
RUMBLE is a VR‑only title that centers on a physics‑based earthbending combat system. Players start in the Gym to learn bending basics, then can test those skills in 1‑on‑1 Arena battles or customize moves with Shiftstones. The game also includes a shared Park for up to six players and a Rock Cam tool for capturing photos and video.
The game runs on Windows via Steam and lists features such as tracked controller support, cross‑play, cross‑progression, online PvP and family sharing. It is currently in Early Access, meaning new content and cosmetics may be added over time.
01 / THE GUIDE
Gym Training
The Gym contains a variety of tools designed to teach the fundamentals of earthbending. These tools let new players experiment with the physics‑driven combat mechanics before entering competitive modes.
Because the Gym focuses on practice rather than competition, players can spend as much time as they like mastering basic motions and controller tracking, which forms the foundation for later battles.
- Allocate a short session to explore each training tool and note how the controllers respond.
- Compare the feel of different tools to decide which best matches your preferred movement style.
02 / THE GUIDE
Arena PvP
The Arena hosts intense 1‑on‑1 matches between earthbenders. Matches occur online, pairing players against each other in real time.
Success in the Arena depends on applying the techniques learned in the Gym and reacting to an opponent’s bending actions, highlighting the game’s physics‑based combat.
- Observe an opponent’s movement before committing to a bend to improve reaction timing.
- After each match, note which bends felt most reliable and adjust practice in the Gym accordingly.

Shiftstones Customization
Shiftstones are items that grant new abilities, allowing players to personalize their combat style. Each stone adds a distinct power that can be combined with existing moves.
Equipping different Shiftstones changes the range of techniques available, giving each player a unique set of options for both offense and defense.
- Test each Shiftstone individually to understand its effect before mixing them.
- Try pairing a defensive stone with an aggressive one to see how they balance in combat.

The Park Multiplayer Hub
The Park is a shared space where up to six players can train, hang out, or play minigames together. It functions as a casual environment separate from the competitive Arena.
Activities in the Park include training together and lighthearted minigames, providing a versatile setting for group interaction and practice.
- Gather friends in the Park for joint training before entering the Arena.
- Experiment with different minigames to discover which ones reinforce your bending techniques.
05 / THE GUIDE
Rock Cam Capture Tool
The Rock Cam is an in‑game handheld camera that lets players create photos and videos of their gameplay. It offers a way to document training sessions and battles.
The feature is unavailable on Linux, and by extension, the Steam Frame, but works on supported Windows installations, allowing players to share highlights from their VR experience.
- Record a short clip of a Gym practice to review controller tracking later.
- Capture a quick photo after an Arena win to share with friends.
