Take IT Studio, the developer behind Electrician Simulator (2022), is bringing a VR version of the game to Quest, PSVR 2 and PC VR headsets this month.

Electrician Simulator VR is getting things up to code by letting you go hands-on as a Sparky, tasking you with everything from repairing outlets and switches, laying cables in walls, to connecting electrical appliances.

Take IT Studio says each mission in the VR version was “created from scratch,” which are based on missions introduced in the flatscreen version of the game. You’ll also encounter (sometimes fickle) customers, who can surprise you with extra requirements and also story or two.

In addition to regular missions, Electrician Simulator VR is also slated to include a challenge mode, tasking you with completing three additional tasks on each mission—maybe a little less conventional than you were expecting, and requiring a little more thought in execution.

Electrician Simulator VR is slated to release March 21st, which you can wishlist today across Quest 3/S, PSVR 2, and SteamVR headsets.

    Yeah right, big deal, yawn. Just give me an Edge of Nowhere style adventure or a really good platformer.

    I'd be interested if this is based on real electrical codes and practices and is educational. I chance to learn how to do electrical work in my home without killing myself. But if it's just an unrealistic game. .not so interested.

      Read the reviews on the flatscreen version, that'll give you a clue (I haven't).

      Turn off the fuse to the circuit your working on, ground is green, white is neutral and black/red is power on American low voltage appliances like a fan. Use Klein tools they are insulated electrical tools. You should be able to replace a plug or light switch safely. Id get a pro for anything bigger

    Decades ago when i fantasized about what fantastical experiences VR could offer, this mundane job simulator didn’t feature at all in my dreams.
