Gameplay
The game is a stand-still wave shooter where you clear each stage by battling swarms of enemies. There are five planets, each consisting of 4 stages, including boss fights. During gameplay, the player is given a skill tree, to unlock special abilities and improve current stats, as well as weapons. The weapon arsenal consists of classic weapons along with specialized weapons such as bow (with regular and explosive arrows) and energy sword. The ammo can be bought in the store with credits collected during combat. Another novelty is the introduction of shields, which serve to protect the player from incoming projectiles, apart from physical dodging. The game offers several modes of play, apart from the story mode, such as arena, endless mode etc.

Reception
The game received positive reviews. Gaming website UploadVR gave it 8.5 out of 10 stating "Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope combines frenetic action, testosterone-laden humor and beautiful graphics into a solid VR package that kept me coming back for more punishment. It has few minor blemishes and may not have lasting power for some gamers, but ultimately it's one of the best VR wave shooters you can play. Now where did I put that rocket launcher?".
Zara Stone, writing for Forbes magazine praised its mixed reality wizard.
It was included in Rock, Paper, Shotgun's list of top 22 VR games for PC.
