With September almost here, here are our monthly highlights for new VR games launching next month.
Summer is nearly over and though it’s generally a quieter time, August had plenty of new VR/MR games with Hidden Memories of The Gardens Between, Banners & Bastions, Grit and Valor, and Into Black. Other notable releases include World War Z VR, Virtual Skate, Clawball, and Don’t Move, while several games received big updates such as No Man’s Sky, Walkabout, and Pinball FX VR.
With fall only a few weeks away, expect the release calendar to start picking up in time for the holidays as we’ve often seen. We’ll continue refreshing this list as more games get announced or delayed, and our upcoming VR games list remains regularly updated for a more comprehensive look at what’s coming out.
With that said, here are this September’s highlights for new VR games on Quest, PC VR, PlayStation VR2, and Pico.
