X8 is a 5v5 VR hero shooter game that immerses players in thrilling battles. The game unfolds over 14 rounds where teams must collaborate to either deploy 'The Syphon’, a data-siphoning device that detonates after a countdown, at designated map locations during an attack or deactivate it within 30 seconds using 'The Defuser' in defense. The team that eliminates all attackers or thwarts deployment to score the most points emerges as the victor.
