The gameplay in "Final Assault" is praised for its engaging and intense real-time strategy mechanics, offering a mix of multitasking, tactical depth, and replayability through various modes like campaign, skirmish, and online multiplayer. While some players find the controls and campaign lacking, the overall experience is enhanced by stunning graphics and a fun, immersive environment, making it accessible even for those new to the genre. However, the gameplay can feel simplistic for hardcore RTS fans, and prolonged play may lead to discomfort due to the physical demands of VR.

- “It has beautifully designed maps, a fun sense of immersion and control, while retaining an essential element of simplicity to its gameplay.”
