Evaluation
STRIDE: Fates launched on May 16, 2024 as a full-release VR parkour action game — a sequel to the original STRIDE. The developer, Joy Way, shipped two post-launch feature updates in the months following release: a June 13, 2024 patch (v1.15) that replaced AI-generated assets with original artwork and voice acting, and an August 8, 2024 update (v1.16) that delivered enhanced climbing mechanics, improved weapon interactions, new gun skins, and a range of bug fixes. These updates reflect a responsive post-launch polish phase rather than a sustained content expansion program. There is only one major content event in the news feed — the launch itself on May 16, 2024. No DLC has been listed, no future content or roadmap has been announced, and there have been no developer communications since August 8, 2024. With no unreleased DLC, no announced future content, and developer communications having ceased after the polish updates, the game appears to have launched as a complete, self-contained package. The last meaningful update was August 8, 2024.

About this game
Enhancing everything players love about the freerunning nature of STRIDE, the full-fledged sequel 'Fates' pushes the parkour action formula even further with new story-oriented gameplay.
Raised in the slums of dystopian Airon City, at the very bottom of food chain, you got a golden ticket out.
To survive and climb the ladder in elite police forces of SkyChase, you will have to deal with power shifts in gangs, dirty family feuds, corporate secrets, forbidden tech and much more.
Your fate is bound with other motley characters in this story. Will you accept the destiny or fight against it?
◉ Climb buildings, vault through windows, and slide down cables with lightning speed.
◉ Explore major locations under the watch of snipers and drones.
◉ Engage in tactical close-quarters combat.
◉ Use your gadgets and hacking skills to outwit thugs and corporates.
From dirty slums to affluent skyscrapers, you will visit many places to enjoy the view and challenge your reflexes in action-packed gameplay.
Reworked STRIDE Engine now offers advanced levels of graphics, physics and interactivity on PCVR. We refined every aspect of the original STRIDE: shooting and weapons, enemy variety and their AI… the list goes on and on.
When you run, fight, interact with characters or solve puzzles, you will feel a major leap in technology.
‘Fates’ is a separate game that offers a smooth entry and deep gameplay mechanics to keep you hooked until the end-credits and beyond.
It is newcomer-friendly and doesn’t require your skills or knowledge from the original game. STRIDE: Fates is a great fit for everyone from narrative lovers to fitness enthusiasts.
