Single Player Shooters
Note: Great single player shooters tend to be on the expensive side, so we’re offering a few more titles for you to consider beyond the ~$100 target.
The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners – $40
The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners is one of the best games on Quest, bar none. Tossing the user head-first into a post-apocalyptic New Orleans, you navigate rival gangs, take out walkers with gun or blade, and run at full speed hoping to get back to base before the sun goes down and you’re mobbed to death by the undead. It’s not open world, but you’ll probably forget that considering how large and detailed bespoke levels are. You could also grab the sequel ‘Retribution’ for $40, but the original hits so much cleaner.

Arizona Sunshine 2 – $50
Arizona Sunshine 2 has cross-play co-op with PSVR 2 and SteamVR, but it’s a great single player game full of zombie-slaying madness. Even if you’re going solo, your canine pal Buddy will help you take down the shambolic baddies and even solve a few environmental puzzles along the way. Kill a stupid amount of zombies in this 5+ hour campaign.
STRIDE Fates – $30
This campaign version of the popular parkour game STRIDE sends you through cityscapes, gun in hand. To survive and climb the ladder in elite police forces of SkyChase, you will have to deal with power shifts in gangs, dirty family feuds, corporate secrets, forbidden tech and much more.
Into the Radius – $30
Into to Radius puts you in the middle of a blighted, Stalker-inspired zone cut off from the outside world. With access to a wide range of realistic guns that you’ll need to clean and maintain, you’ll need to rely on your scrounging abilities combined will to move forward through the entity-filled world. Fight the deadly enemies, dodge dangerous anomalies, and complete missions on your way to the Radius center to find your way out.
Resident Evil 4 VR – $40
You might have played it before on flatscreen, but Resident Evil 4 VR for Quest is so good even if you’re not specifically looking for a blast from the past. Fair warning: there’s a bunch of cutscenes that play out like movies in a black void, but it’s still pretty amazing to step into the newly polished and patently decrepit world of Resident Evil and take on the mantle of un Forastero as you upgrade guns and scramble for health potions at every turn.
SUPERHOT VR – $25
It’s old. And they should have made another by now. Or like a ton more. Still, it’s hard not to recommend the 2016 hit Superhot VR, which works just like the PC version: every time you move, time moves forward. Stand still, and the world stops. You’d think it would be easy to win against the evil red crystal dudes that run at you, but each movement is death sentence waiting to happen if you’re not careful. Catch guns, shoot, punch, die, repeat until you feel like Neo from The Matrix or John Wick from … John Wick. You’re bound to feel like some version of Keanu Reeves in Superhot VR.
