Words I never thought I would say: the iconic '90s film Groundhog Day (1993) finally has a sequel ... and it's a VR game. Although I don't think anything can live up to the original—game, film, or otherwise—Groundhog Day: Like Father Like...

Battlewake is a pirate ship combat game that seems to have it all; not only does it boast a campaign for both solo and two-player co-op, but also online PvP and a co-op 'ongoing missions' mode—certainly nothing to sneeze at in...

Until You Fall is something of an unexpected title for Schell Games. For a studio which has previously focused on education and puzzle based VR games, Until You Fall brings a surprisingly rich combat experience which successfully fuses meta-game elements in...

Cortopia Studios, the Stockholm-based team behind the spellcasting combat game Wands (2016), showed off their next entry into the realm of VR at Gamescom 2019 this week. Called Down the Rabbit Hole, I got a chance to go hands-on with...

I didn't know what to make of Paper Beasts when I heard about back at its reveal in April. Billed as an exploration game inspired by big data, or the unfathomably large data sets that can reveal unseen trends, the...

Gamescom 2019 kicked off today in Cologne, Germany, and there I got a chance to go hands-on with the upcoming sequel to Budget Cuts (2018), the cheeky stealth assassin adventure from the Stockholm-based indie studio Neat Corp. Much like the...

Beyond the known world is a galaxy of infinite exploration and endless possibility. That is, of course, until you meet your end at the whim of an angry detachment of Sentinels, or breathe in too many atmospheric toxins and...

As a storied franchise, Wolfenstein games serve as undeniable vehicles for kicking Nazi butt, the most recent of which have taken on alternate history narratives that place resistance fighters in the heart of a prolonged Nazi occupation. And while Wolfenstein:...

I have to say, when I first saw the announce trailer for Marvel's Iron Man VR, I wasn't exactly blown away. Now that I've actually had a chance to try the game for myself, my tune has totally changed—there's...

In all the time I’ve spent mucking around in Oculus Home and Rec Room—both physics-based sandbox environments that promise to let me do as I please in VR—I always felt like there was a significant time gap involved with...

In announcing Until You Fall, Schell Games was boastful about its ability to deliver an “intense, real-time combat expe­ri­ence that hasn’t been seen before with VR." After spending a few hours with the pre-alpha version of the game, it's clear...

When I first heard about Defector I was excited to see what essentially amounted to Mission Impossible coming to VR—the laughably improbable, overblown action that makes you feel like a true badass. And while there are some choice slices of...

Channeling Journey (2012) and Viva Piñata (2006), albeit at a smaller scale, Fujii is a game about exploration and gardening with a dash of discovery. That's not to say that you'll be exploring epic landscapes or saving the world by discovering long-lost knowledge in...

Freediver: Triton Down launched quietly at the end of May, and while the $9 price reflects its short playtime, the title demonstrates a strong grasp of VR game design with a 'swimming' locomotion mechanic which is woven into the...

After the Fall is an upcoming co-op VR zombie shooter that promises to let groups of up to four players battle for survival within a zombie infested landscape. Revealed last week at E3 2019, the game's first demo offered...
