The World of Darkness is spilling out into video games again. Apart from the increasingly tangible Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2, there's another long-winded name to keep tabs on this year. Wraith: The Oblivion - Afterlife is a fir...

The peculiar PlayStation VR game Paper Beast is launching on Steam later this summer, and if you're into the idea of studying fantastic wildlife in a strange land that you can physically reshape, you're gonna want to check it out. It's the...

Last year, famed podcaster and amateur historian Dan Carlin, along with MWM Interactive, released War Remains, a virtual reality experience that put guests in the shoes of a soldier on the western front of World War I. It was only availabl...

VR parkour, as a concept, is full of thrilling potential – but only if it's done well. Only if it nails that sense of scale, speed, and danger without making you ill. After seeing the trailer for Stride, a first-person platformer comi...

If there's one thing you'll quickly (and continuously) learn as a new VR owner, it's that sales are crucial. After breaking through that initial financial barrier to entry, it's important to build out your early library with restraint. When...

Like a Witch, Valve fans have wailed and moaned out of their own sort of tortured agony. They want more Left 4 Dead, their cries directed at no one in particular, just into the abyss and for anyone who's nearby. Like a Hunter, Valve has pou...

For better or worse, Twin Peaks VR is about what you'd expect: a chance to spend a bit more time in David Lynch and Mark Frost's subversive universe. It doesn't look particularly great, even by virtual-reality graphics standards, but I coul...

There's good news and there's bad news. The next game in the Half-Life canon won't require the $1,000 Valve Index hardware to play. That's a bullet dodged. However, it will require some sort of PC-based VR setup, and that's going to be...

Stress Level Zero just announced a December 10, 2019 release date for Boneworks on Steam, and it's the kind of game that can sell itself with a single gif. (Okay, actually, let's make that two.) It's the kind of game that comes with a "Hey,...

Horror and virtual reality tend to go hand in hand, and while I've sleepwalked through some supposedly scary VR games that didn't end up being all that impactful even with an added sense of immersion, generally speaking, the genre suits the...

Five Nights at Freddy's VR: Help Wanted freaked me the hell out earlier this year, and I say that both as a compliment and as someone who isn't invested in the wider series. It hit the spot. Thinking back on everything I played on PlayStati...

Enter our contest and pick up a copy of breakout VR title Moss for Steam or Oculus Quest! Being a silly human, I can't say I've ever experienced what it's like to be a cute little four-legged creature. Imagine scurrying around the forest so...

Enter our contest to win a Secret Location VR game bundle for Steam! Today we've got three games up for grabs instead of our usual one! Well, two games and a cinematic VR experience, but still. Three is definitely better than one. Developer...

Cats are assholes. Everyone knows this. Why we keep them around I'll never know. My roommate has a cat, and his favorite thing to do is sneak into my room when I'm asleep and lie horizontally across my face. He'll jump up onto the coffee ta...

Leave it to virtual reality to get me swept up in the Five Nights at Freddy's craze. While Help Wanted will resonate best with players who are already familiar with Scott Cawthon's wacky world of killer animatronics, it's still perfectly pa...

Not to jinx it, but the next Walking Dead video game – The Walking Dead Onslaught – sounds promising. Really, really promising. With the way other adaptations have gone down, it's about time. Onslaught is a built-just-for-VR exp...

At 800,000 sales, Superhot VR has officially brought in more revenue than its non-VR counterpart. It's an eyebrow-raising headline at first blush, but the more you think about it, the more it checks out. The notable milestone was confirmed ...

If you're dying for more songs to play in Beat Saber (especially all you PlayStation VR owners), the wait won't be much longer. DLC is on the way with a mysterious Music Pack arriving on March 14, 2019. Beat Games shared a glimpse of Beat S...

My only real hangup with Job Simulator is that it had to end. It's a silly game about day-to-day tasks like office work and cooking, but through the lens of robots who don't know the finer details of humanity's distant past. When everything...

Rock Band creator Harmonix is cooking up a new rhythm game for virtual reality players called Audica and it's brimming with potential. Using a pair of blasters, you'll shoot, smash, and paint color-coded targets to the beat of the music. I ...

In case you haven't heard, Beat Saber, a VR rhythm game released in the middle of last year, is a bonafide hit. The gist is that you use two remotes (in each hand) to simulate virtual lightsabers, then slash cubes to the beat. It's a simple...

I have no idea if Harold Ramis would have approved of this, but this is a thing now. Remember the 1993 classic film Groundhog Day? Most of you do: it had a killer premise and a perfect lead in Bill Murray. Well it's back, in VR form. Like m...

There have been 22 Angry Birds games since 2009, which is a fact that Wikipedia just told me. That's a lot of mileage out of hucking birds at pigs, swine-icide and demolition by avian assault. For its next game, players will have a muc...

In this contest, the prize is virtually free. Win a Steam key for VR game Evasion. I gotta admit, I wasn't entirely sold on the whole VR thing until I got a rig, myself. It definitely takes a bit of getting used to, but man the different ki...

Slowly but surely, the United States is getting in on the Mario Kart VR action. The Vive-backed virtual reality experience has been playable in an arcade-scale setup in Japan and the UK. Now, Bandai Namco Amusement America is bringing Mari...
