Evaluation

Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality launched on December 5, 2016 as a VR adaptation of the original Surgeon Simulator. In the months following launch, Bossa Studios issued several patches refining VR controls and fixing bugs (December 2016 through March 2017). No new content was ever announced or released beyond these post-launch polish updates. The most recent developer communication was a bug fix on March 2, 2022, which resolved a black screen issue — nearly four years after the last substantive update. There have been no posts since that date, no DLC listings, no announced expansions or roadmap, and no signals of ongoing development. The store description references only content that shipped at launch. With no post-launch major content ever released for this title (the one "major_content" post in the news feed was for a completely separate Bossa Studios game, Worlds Adrift), no outstanding commitments, and developer communication having ceased as of March 2, 2022, the game is best understood as a finished product that has been fully delivered.

About this game

Surgeon Simulator is bringing the ER to VR! The most critically acclaimed and infamous surgery simulation game as you have never seen it before! Built for Vive and featuring all of the surgeries and twisted humour of the original favourite plus a few new surprises…

Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality transports you into some of the most unlikely and possibly unsanitary surgeries possible. Bob’s life is in your hands in this darkly humorous VR game, taking you closer to bloody surgery than you possibly ever wanted to go! From the operating theatre, to the back of an ambulance, to outer space, your patient’s welfare will be in your virtual hands.

In addition to the original surgeries we’ve added exclusive new features for you to play with in VR. How about brain surgery in the dark? What about a hand-held camera to admire your surgical efforts from any angle? New achievements? It’s all in Surgeon Simulator: ER!

Whatever you do, don’t press that button in space!
