Virtual reality does a lot more than just games. It can be an amazing escape, a workout or even both. For the best of everything, gaming and otherwise, you can try the VR headset, the Quest 2
(previously the Oculus Quest 2, now the Meta Quest 2 after Facebook’s name change to Meta). While it doesn’t have as many VR games as other game consoles, new titles keep coming in, even a few years into the Quest 2’s release.
After years of testing games and apps across the Meta app store, there are some that I love more than others, and several that I recommend to friends and family. Some of these games also work with the original Quest, but a growing number of apps are now exclusive to the Quest 2. Note that to access top PC VR games like Star Wars: Squadrons or Half-Life: Alyx, you’ll need to connect to a gaming PC, either wirelessly or with a USB cable.
We’ll continue to update this list as new options become available.
