No Man's Sky VR

No Man's Sky VR isn't a standalone VR game as such and is instead an updated version of the title that allows you to play the entire game within virtual reality.

Aside from the ability to invite thirty-one of your friends plus yourself to explore the galaxies, it's one of the vastest open worlds ever employed within a game which gives you plenty to go around discovering.

Of course, putting No Man's Sky into VR makes it one of the most immersive games out there, and given the expansive of the world that is procedurally generated, you'll never get tired of things to explore.

There's also a variety of missions on offer in an open world where you can trade goods, build bases, and hunt bounties, amongst other things, giving you hours of enjoyment from one great game.

Reasons to buy:

Demeo

Demeo is a VR tabletop game that has you and some friends pushing through dangerous dungeons for loot, glory, and more.

There are a few classes to choose from, each of which also gets news cards and abilities as you go overcome obstacles and find chests. Along with an awesome turn-based battle system, the game is also deeply strategic, meaning you really need to use your head to succeed.

Also, there's a non-VR version that can be played and those players can also jump in with you.

Reasons to buy:

  • Amazing mixed reality modes

Pavlov VR

In keeping with the theme of FPS games, Pavlov VR is a game built around its community and acts as a handy VR port of the Counter-Strike series that will be familiar to an awful lot of gamers.

There are plenty of guns and maps to pick from, with settings ranging from the Second World War and the present day. Expect to find some more realistic combat, so reloading guns manually and looking down sights to line up a perfect shot is going to be integral to success.

With that VR experience, Pavlov VR marks itself out as an intense shooter that is played entirely against other people online, to make for a properly competitive experience.

You can play with bots, but in a game that's pretty much entirely made by a community, playing online will be best.

Reasons to buy:

  • One of the best gunplay systems in VR
  • Intense action

Arizona Sunshine 2

Sometimes you just need to shoot and hit a lot of zombies to feel alive, and in those times, you really want to play Arizona Sunshine 2.

It's a big upgrade on the original game, not only because there are more weapons, but because you've got a dog companion you can pet and play within the game. They even help you take out zombies. What a good floof!

Plus, as you can probably tell because it's on this list, Arizona Sunshine 2 is co-op too. That means you can do all of that with a friend, and that's what it's all about.

Reasons to buy:

  • Amazing co-op experience
  • You get a dog...

For those wanting to give a battle royale a go in virtual reality, Population: One looks to be the game for you.

There are also plenty of opportunities to progress in Population: One with oodles of unlockable items including guns and player skins to make your character look unique.

A match can also hold 18 players, and you can team up with another two friends in a squad of three and work together to win. There are also going to be some new maps launching soon, so you'll want to keep an eye out for those.

Racket Club

Racket Club comes from the excellent Resolution Games, who've made other excellent multiplayer games, including Blaston and Demeo, so you know it's got some pedigree.

Walkabout Mini Golf VR

On the subject of having fun with friends, sometimes a game of mini-golf can be a great way to go about it, and Walkabout Mini Golf VR provides you with that chance.

You'll have the ability to engage in a full set of 18 holes with realistic and natural physics to offer a familiar experience. In addition, the putting on here is said to be simple, but that is of course dependent upon the player.

There's a nice selection of different courses to use, each with its distinct theme, and once you've mastered them, Walkabout Mini Golf VR also features a Night mode that modifies the original holes with even harder challenges.

Crossplay with up to five people also means you can have a full round that can last for a good while between you, and the fact there are interconnected holes on the course also helps to make you feel even more immersed.

Reasons to buy:

  • A great VR game to chill out
  • Better than real golf?

Star Wars: Squadrons

If you're a fan of the classic Star Wars series and want to engage in some intense combat, then Star Wars: Squadrons looks like a fantastic title.

The game allows you to take control of your very own Starfighter and engage in 5 vs 5 online battles, with the added immersion of virtual reality. For when you don't want to engage in multiplayer, there's also an incredible and unique story mode to get stuck into.

Plus, you can also customise your spacecraft if you so wish so you can make it all your own.

Reasons to buy:

  • Great dogfights, just like in the films
  • Good if you want to say "niner niner"

Among US VR

Among Us VR is quite simply Among Us in virtual reality. That means up to ten players can enjoy the sheer carnage of running around trying to finish tasks while other players try to impale or eat you.

It's an absolute blast to play, and we'd argue it's actually more enjoyable than the normal version is.

It's also a little bit more horrifying than the normal version because you feel like you're properly running away when you end up suspicious of another player, and it's a little bit easier to get lost too.

Definitely grab this if you've got a few friends to play it with because there are few games as fun as this one.

Reasons to buy:

  • You'll never trust your friends again
  • Incredibly funny playing with the right people

Dungeons of Eternity

Dungeons of Eternity is quite possibly the best dungeon crawler on the Meta Quest headsets, and the fact that it's co-op just makes it better.

The story is that you're trying to save your homeworld and to do so, you need to use swords and crossbows to hunt down skeletons and zombies and get more loot.

The combat feels amazing, some of the boss fights are a lot of fun, and you can really customise the way you fight thanks to the range of weapons available. The higher rarity weapons even have some amazing special effects that'll have you feeling like an absolute badass.

It looks amazing, is basically endless if you want it to be, and it's easily some of the most fun you can have in VR at the moment.

Reasons to buy:

  • Amazing melee combat
  • Plenty of different modes

Gorilla Tag

Sometimes you just want to swing your arms around and feel like a gorilla; we've all been there. In those moments, you just need to jump into Gorilla Tag.

Gorilla Tag has you using your arms as your main locomotion, which means it's a nice little workout and a lot of fun. It's a very strange feeling, to begin with, but when you're frantically yeeting your arms trying to catch other players, you'll forget about the oddity entirely.

You can also jump online and play in one of four different game modes, pitting yourself against other players in various competitions to either come out on top as an individual or as a team. You can unlock different cosmetics as you go too, and you're sure to have a blast learning and mastering this game.

Reasons to buy:

  • Great upper body workout
  • Swinging like an animal is something you can't do in real life

Breachers

Breachers is, in essence, virtual reality Rainbow Six Siege. We're pretty sure that's going to have done enough to win over a large chunk of people, but we'll go deeper just in case you're not sold.

Alongside looking incredible, Breachers is a 5v5 FPS game where you either have to infiltrate or protect different areas. You have to figure out what tools to use, strategise with your teammates, and overcome some intense firefights if you want to win.

One of the coolest things about Breachers is that, while your general accuracy certainly helps, you can often overcome sharper shooters with good tactical decisions.

It's a great game to jump into with some friends, and if you can somehow wrangle a full team, you'll be unlikely to play anything else.

Reasons to buy:

  • Amazing if you like teamwork
  • Stressful, but in a good way

Nock

Nock is a bow and arrow game mixed with elements of football or volleyball. You shoot arrows at the ball to try and get it into your opponent's goal, and you can also use amazing movement abilities to fly around at will, making it a true 3D experience in every way.

You can also take other players out by shooting the ball into them, create a block in midair to protect or redirect, and it has one of the coolest visual styles in VR gaming. It's amazing, and you should absolutely try it out.

Reasons to buy:

  • The best version of Rocket League in VR
  • Surprisingly intense physical workout


And that's it! These VR games are great for multiplayer action, so hopefully you've found something for you and your friends to hop into next time you're in virtual reality.
