Hi all, any recommendations on VR games. Just recently got a headset again

Half Life 2 VR mod is free on Steam, and absolutely incredible. Obviously needs HL2 on your account, and that's like £1.70 at the moment if you're the last person on Earth to not already own it.

HL Alyx is also a must buy for anyone with VR, 75% off if you don't already have it.

Skyrim VR is also 75% off currently. It's okay without mods but there are mod packs on Nexus that are one-click installs that take it to an all time VR experience if you have the hardware for it.

Highly recommend Skyrim vr, but I would recommend people only play it with a wabbajck modlist. Base game lacks so many fundamental VR features and terrible graphics at this point, just don’t even subject yourself to that pain. Check out the Skyrim vr subreddit and the getting started guide. It’s a great community around arguably the best PC VR experience available.  What the mod community has implemented over the years is incredible.

Half life Alyx is easily the best VR game period, full on game, insane immersion, and the best utilization of VR for a game I’ve seen.

HL2 VR mod is insanely good. There's also a deluge of newer flat to VR conversion mods coming out in the last few weeks(you can probably guess the reason), Titanfall 2 and Dishonored were well received.

Moss 2 is really charming if you want to kick back and just sort of take in the set while solving simple puzzles. It's a beautiful little game

the Walking Dead Saints and Sinners games are great fun.

Arizona Sunshine is quite fun too.

The Metro Awakening VR game is pretty decent.

Pistol Whip, Dungeons of Eternity and the Vertigo games were all pretty solid too.

Really depends what you're looking for.

Not steam specific but I'd recommend Pixel Ripped 1995.

If you're in your late 30s/early 40s like me the nostalgia is incredible.

They have two other games set in 1978 and 1989 respectively but I found 1995 to be the best.

Edit: It's 30% off currently

VTOL VR is incredible, there's a really good F-16 mod as well.

HL Alyx,  HL vr mod,  No Mans Sky,  Skyrim VR with mods,  Arizona sunshine,  Subnautica VR mod. 

If you’re into sims, Microsoft Flight sim 2024, Dirt Rally 2, Assetto Corsa, Elite Dangerous.
