Top 10 Survival Tips for Deadly Delivery VR on Steam & Meta Quest
Deadly Delivery VR is an upcoming VR-only co-op horror game where you and your friends become delivery goblins working in haunted mines. You will carry parcels through pitch-black tunnels, dodge monsters, and hope you hit your quota before something in the dark finds you.
The game is set to launch on December 4, 2025 on SteamVR, with Meta Quest support as well.
Whether you have tried the demo or you are planning to jump in at release, here are 10 survival tips to help you stay alive (and maybe even keep your coworkers alive too).
1. Respect the darkness
Deadly Delivery VR leans heavily on darkness and limited visibility. Your flashlight and any portable lights become your lifeline. Running into the dark without checking corners is the fastest way to bump into a monster.
Move slowly, sweep your light around, and make a habit of checking behind you — not everything makes noise before it attacks.
2. Communicate constantly with your team
The VR version is built around online co-op with proximity voice chat, meaning your voice is part of the experience. Call out monsters, directions, important map landmarks, and when you are about to pull a lever or run for your life. In Deadly Delivery VR, silence is more dangerous than noise.
3. Know when to drop the package
You are there to deliver parcels into haunted mines, but sometimes you need both hands or full freedom to run, climb, or help a teammate. Do not be afraid to drop a package temporarily when you hear a monster, need to climb, or are trying to rescue someone.
4. Use the environment as your ally
The mines are not just empty backgrounds. Use ledges, ladders, carts, and obstacles to kite monsters, create chokepoints, and watch elevation changes so you can keep an eye on threats.
5. Do not ignore progression and upgrades
Deadly Delivery VR includes progression systems, gear upgrades, cosmetics, and even pets. While cosmetics are for fun, gear upgrades make your life easier: better lights, more useful tools, and quality-of-life gadgets for your shift. Spend your earnings wisely between runs.
6. Learn monster behavior patterns
Like the Roblox version, Deadly Delivery VR features monsters with personality — some may even look and act like your teammates. Pay attention to what triggers them (sound, light, proximity), how fast they move, and where they tend to appear. Patterns make the game feel fair instead of random.
7. Use voice and body language together
VR lets you do more than talk. Gesture, point, nod, and shake your head. Point at threats in the dark, wave to get attention without shouting, and nod to confirm plans. VR body language can save your life when everyone is panicking.
8. Set comfort options early
Before you dive into the mines, spend a moment in settings: pick the right movement option, adjust vignette or comfort tunneling, and set audio levels so you can hear both monsters and teammates clearly. Being comfortable helps you stay focused when the horror kicks in.
9. Join the Deadly Delivery VR Discord
The Deadly Delivery Discord server for VR is where players organize groups, share tips, and get alerts about updates or open betas. Watch for patch notes, ask about builds, and find a regular crew to play with — the game is much more fun when you recognize the goblins next to you.
10. Remember: horror plus comedy is the point
Deadly Delivery VR describes itself as a comedy horror game. You will scream, but you will also laugh. Expect teammates slapping each other, dropping parcels at the worst possible moment, and hero plays that go wrong. Survive when you can, die in funny ways when you cannot, and enjoy the ride.
When Deadly Delivery VR launches on Steam and Meta Quest, you will be ready to clock in, grab your parcels, and see if you can make it through your shift in one piece.
