About Skydance's BEHEMOTH
Skydance’s BEHEMOTH drops players into the Forsaken Lands, a dark‑fantasy VR adventure where the outland warrior Wren the Hunter seeks to lift a village curse by confronting massive Behemoths. The base game is single‑player, VR‑only, and runs on Windows via Steam.
The free Rites of Wrath DLC adds two modes that are open to all owners: The Arena, a wave‑based combat challenge on three maps, and the Behemoth Trials, a ritual space that lets players face any campaign Behemoth in a custom loadout. The Arena introduces coin collection and weapon breakage.
01 / THE GUIDE
The Arena
The Arena is presented as a fully fledged feature that expands on the earlier Beta Arena Mode and now includes three distinct maps playable during day or night. Players must survive successive enemy waves while gathering coins from defeated foes.
Collected coins can be exchanged for golden weapons, but those weapons are subject to breakage, sometimes at inconvenient moments, so players must manage their arsenal carefully. Completing the regular Arena unlocks an Endless version that continues waves indefinitely.
- Watch for moments when a weapon breaks and switch to a fresh one before the wave ends.
- Try the Endless variant after you feel comfortable with the three standard maps.
02 / THE GUIDE
Behemoth Trials
In the Behemoth Trials players perform a ritual on a hallowed ground that grants immediate access to any Behemoth from the campaign, using bespoke loadouts designed to maximize the chances of success.
The order and number of Behemoths are chosen by the player, allowing back‑to‑back battles such as Shacklehide followed by Nightscraper or any other combination the player prefers.
- Try the bespoke loadouts provided for each Behemoth encounter.
- Experiment with different sequencing to discover a flow that feels natural.
03 / THE GUIDE
Virtual Physicality
Skydance describes the game’s combat as “Virtual Physicality”, meaning all attacks are executed through tracked VR controllers that translate the player’s physical motions into bone‑crunching melee.
Because the experience is VR‑only, navigation, weapon swings, and enemy interactions all rely on the player’s real‑world movements captured by the controllers.
- Keep a clear play area to avoid obstacles while swinging large attacks.
- Use the controller’s tracking to gauge distance before committing to a heavy strike.
04 / THE GUIDE
Forsaken Lands Biomes
The game’s world is described as containing four biomes, with snowy tundras and swampy marshlands explicitly mentioned as two of them. Each biome presents harsh conditions and hosts enemy swarms.
Surviving across these biomes is required to progress the quest to end the village’s curse, and each area introduces distinct environmental challenges.
- Adjust your combat stance to suit open tundra versus dense marsh terrain.
- Stay alert for enemy groups that appear more frequently in certain biomes.

Steam Integration
BEHEMOTH lists Steam Achievements, Steam Cloud, and Family Sharing as supported features, indicating that progress can be saved online and that the game can be shared with other Steam accounts.
These Steam services operate alongside the VR‑only requirement and are available on the Windows platform; no macOS or Linux support is listed.
- Open the Steam overlay during play to view achievement progress.
- Enable Cloud sync in Steam settings to keep your save data backed up.
