10.Moss

Experience one of the most breathtaking worlds available in VR with Moss. Discover Quill’s story as you guide her through puzzles and obstacles in an epic quest to save her uncle from the fire-breathing snake, Sarffog. The game blends first-person and third-person perspectives effortless, giving you more control over how you interact with virtual reality. You can get the game on PS4 or PC.

Moss made a wonderful first impression and never let up. Spending four hours with Quill in this VR world was a joy, and no one element or environment type wears out its welcome. Its mix of combat and puzzles hooked me quickly, always kept things fresh, and left me wanting more.

The world of Moss feels like a real place, populated with characters that act like living, breathing creatures. The addition of VR elevates the experience to something else entirely.

9.Beat Saber

Smash your way through an endless number of blue and red boxes to your favourite songs in the most hyped VR game on the market. A must-own for any VR owner, you will dance, sing, lose weight, slice and stumble your way through an infinite number of songs. Wielding Lightsabers has never felt so good and never has three minutes felt so long in the epic Beat Saber. Get it now and get fit on PC and PS4, seriously, NOW.

Beat Saber should be the go-to for introducing people to the potential of VR gaming. Its simple to learn, damn near impossible to master rhythm gameplay is outstanding.

Beat Saber is an exhilarating rhythm game that makes a strong impression on PSVR with challenging levels, superb motion tracking, and well-tuned difficulties.

8.Five Nights at Freddy’s VR Help Wanted

If screaming is your thing, and you didn’t get enough of your favourite streamers or yourself being scared on the original Five Night at Freddy’s, you can experience the horrors all over again, only this time up close and personal in VR. Struggle to survive the nights once more, where the footsteps, the scratches and the singing all combine to give you nightmares for days to come. Remember, in VR, covering your eyes won’t work when the animatronics are at your door.

 Five Nights at Freddy’s VR: Help Wanted is definitely one for series fans or those that enjoy a good scare.

A hallmark of excellence. There may be flaws, but they are negligible and won’t cause massive damage.

7.FOCUS on YOU

If dating is not your thing, get some practice and confidence in VR with FOCUS on YOU. Sit back with your controller, relax and practice your best moves in a single-player interactive story where you can experience realistic, heart-racing dates with Han Yua, the cheerful female lead. Learn how to take photos in the park and pick up dates at the same time in VR’s best dating game. FOCUS on YOU and date at your own pace on PC and PS4.

This is a glimpse into the future of what VR storytelling and visual novels can become. If a full length story could capture this level of immersion, it’d be a game changer!

6.Nostos

Explore a rich open-world setting either in VR or standard mode as you discover historical sites and remains of war. Travel across deserts, grasslands and mountains in a beautiful classic anime inspired world. Team up with friends or go it alone as you gather resources, build shelter and fight against the looming extinction that faces you and the rest of the survivors.

An ambitious new open world adventure from Netease that straddles the boundaries of VR and traditional desktop MMORPG. Nostos is a magical experience that ultimately has some way to go before it hits its lofty goals

Nostos shows the world’s end with some sci-fi elements incorporated. It adopts the style of the traditional oriental animated films.

5.BONEWORKS

Boneworks showcases the next step in virtual reality by demonstrating the potential that VR has with physics. Play through the generous length of the campaign by completing physics-driven puzzles and steady combat, or immerse yourself in the game’s Sandbox mode. Heavily influenced by Half-Life 2 and Portal, Boneworks is available on Steam for all PC-based VR headsets.

There’s plenty to be desired in terms of story, level design, and even the physics simulations that it so heavily leans on, but Boneworks is awesomely interactive, engaging, and has tons of replayability potential.

The totality of the game lacks effective pacing as it bounces back and forth from puzzle to combat with little sense of synergy and no apparent climax.

4.Shadow Legend VR

Jump into the single-player action-adventure game built exclusively for virtual reality in Shadow Legend VR. As always the gods are at war with each other and it is up to you to save the medieval realm of Anaria. Find hidden treasure, complete puzzles, find bows, swords and magic weapons in a near life-like adventure. Take your life to the next level and slide into VR where you can play fetch with your dog, feed carrots to your horse or cook steaks.

Shadow Legend VR is recommended as a demonstration of the interactivity that VR can offer, couched in an enjoyable fantasy adventure. This is one of the better fantasy VR titles available on PSVR.

Shadow Legend VR could do with some more combat opportunities, but as an exploration RPG with so much to do in such compact, beautifully crafted areas I can find little to complain about.

3.The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners

Enter The Walking Dead universe in a frighteningly realistic walker-infested New Orleans. A first-person VR action game, enter as a hardened survivor as you bring to life the comic and show. Experience close combat and fight off the undead with melee weapons, shotguns, pistols and bows and recreate your favourite kills from the TV series. Every decision you make is driven by you, as you live your own survival horror the way you want to.

Despite its minor issues like relatively boring environments, repetitive mission structure, and human AI that leaves a bit to be desired, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners is easily the best zombie game in VR to date.

The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners is a noteworthy step forward for VR gaming, proving that a Deus Ex-like Action-RPG can feel right at home in a headset.

1.Half-Life Alyx

Set before Half-Life 2, players take on the role of Alyx Vance as she and her father Eli fight the occupying alien Combine. There may be no Gordon Freeman, and it isn’t quite Half-Life 3, but Alyx is promised to be the next part of the Half-Life story. You can jump into Valve’s flagship VR title and enter the legendary world and lore of Half-Life in March 2020, available for all PC-based VR headsets.

What is a VR Game ?

 

Using a virtual reality headset you can transform your regular and dull surroundings into something new, vibrant or terrifying.

Whether it’s racing around Monaco in the fastest sports car, gripping your wheel and forcing the accelerator pedal down while somehow managing to feel the force, or taking to Google Earth VR and experiencing the places you always wished you could visit on the incredible street-view that it offers, virtual reality brings to life the possible and impossible.

What Does it Take to Run VR ?

Virtual reality is for hardcore enthusiasts, so it’s only natural that you need a hardcore set up to get the best out of its potential.

Requirements for VR can differ from game-to-game, but NVIDIA recommend nothing less than a GTX 1060, but you could be looking at frame drops and issues with anything less than the RTX 2060. 8GB or more RAM is recommended and a CPU of the Intel Core i5-4590 being the very least needed.

Your requirements will change depending on game, and even on which VR headset you are thinking of purchasing. It is important to research thoroughly to ensure you understand the requirements and what performance you will be looking at.

Oculus Quest / Rift / Rift S

Oculus are no newcomers to VR and offer some of the industries most impressive headsets.

The Oculus Rift came first, giving affordable prices to consumers. Next came Oculus Rift S offering better visuals, software, better screen door effect and comfort.

Most interestingly is the Oculus Quest, a completely portable VR headset offering the same games and same experience as though it was tethered to your PC, but without wires and without restrictions.

HTC VIVE Pro

HTC have moved into the professional market by offering the VIVE Pro.

The headset offers high resolution AMOLED screens, boasting 2880 x 1600 resolution and offering a room-scale play area of up to 10m x 10m with their new SteamVR Base Stations.

It has a standard refresh rate of 90hz and a high field of view of 100 degrees. A headset designed for the professional, it is one of the best on the market for comfort and specs.

PlayStation VR

Boasting full immersion with 360-degree vision and 120fps visuals, it changes your space to a living, breathing game world.
