Best VR Games to Play in 2022
Virtual reality (VR) isn't a new concept, but when it first became popular, the price of admission was high, and the entertainment options were confined to glorified tech demos. Developers are already creating first-party games and upgraded ports that take full advantage of the special technology, thanks to the introduction of affordable and powerful VR devices. If you've put on a virtual reality headset and are looking for some of the best games to play, we've got you covered. Here are the best virtual reality games of 2022.
Falcon Age (PC, PSVR, Oculus Quest) In this adventure game, you and your pet bird of prey are pitted against the world. Your home planet has been taken over by a robot empire, and the only reasonable thing to do now that you've escaped prison with your new falcon buddy is to fight back. Your falcon learns new tricks and talents as it matures from a chick to an adult to help you on your journey. You can also dress it up in beautiful costumes. With the falcon on one arm and a stun baton on the other, you'll be tasked by the resistance with freeing areas of the map from machine control and restoring hope to a city that hasn't had much of it.
Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series (Oculus, PSVR) The galaxy's most famous Sith Lord resides in a fortress on the planet Mustafar, surrounded by lava and burning rock. And, despite the fact that you're just an average smuggler, you'll have to infiltrate the facility and figure out what Vader is looking for. The game is divided into three sections, with your role in the story gradually becoming obvious as you progress. Your road forward is obstructed by enemies that you can defeat with your lightsabre, as well as puzzles that you must solve using your mind and physics items. If you wish to take a break from the storyline, you can visit the game's Lightsabre Dojo, where you can learn how to use your magnificent weapon.
Iron Man VR (PSVR) Here's one of the greatest, if not the best, virtual reality games for picturing yourself as a member of the Avengers. You take control of the Iron Man suit, looking through its iconic HUD as you navigate the area, punching and shooting energy blasts at your enemies. Back at base, you can personalise your suit in first-person mode, giving you a different perspective on Tony Stark. There's also a plot to explore (though it's not a canon story if you're interested), with the game's campaign pitting Stark and crew against hacking super-villain Ghost, although other good and evil characters will appear as well.
Beat Saber Beat Saber is an interactive music and rhythm game. Instead of steering a virtual ship or playing fake instruments like in previous music games like Audiosurf, Guitar Hero, and Rock Band, you slash your way through a song with virtual laser swords. Beat Saber generates changing patterns of color-coded blocks on the screen as the music plays, which you must hit with the right controller (right or left) as they glide towards you. Obstacles will occasionally appear, forcing you to dodge or slide away. Make no mistake: Beat Saber isn't a game you can play while sitting down; it's a game that requires a lot of movement. Beat Saber is definitely worth checking out if you enjoy music and motion.
Budget Cuts Will you hand up your important paper-stamping and document-filing duties to robots? Cost-cutting robots try to terminate your employment by any means necessary in this game. You must use stealth methods or aggressive violence to fight your way through an office atmosphere to save your job (and your life). The game's hook is all too true, since AI and automation technologies are poised to take over some real-world jobs previously held by humans. Budget Cuts 2: Mission Insolvency is the sequel to Budget Cuts.
