Lushfoil Photography Sim is a recent entry in the niche genre of photography simulators. Its beautiful and serene environments have always looked like they’d be incredible to explore in VR, along with the immersion of taking a photograph using your actual hands to wield a camera.

Forefront comes from Triangle Factory—the studio behind competitive VR shooter Breachers—so we expect the gunplay and gadgets are going to be solid. But compared to many multiplayer VR shooters which top out at 4 vs. 4 or maybe 8 vs. 8 players, Forefront is trying to tap […]

Stellar Cafe is an upcoming VR game that’s all about interacting with AI chatbots in some interesting ways. I went hands-on with the game’s first level to see whether developer AstroBeam could truly hide ‘the bot behind the curtain’, and deliver some fun in the process too.

One day, AI will be able to express itself with all of the same weird, messy behavior that defines a lot of our face-to-face communications today—stuff like hand gestures, body language, different types of slang, code switching, […]

Originally released on PSVR 2 and PC VR earlier this year, Arken Age is headed to Quest 3 and Quest 3S this November. This well-regarded title is one of the most immersive and engaging single-player games we’ve played this year, and the Quest port looks surprisingly good.

Arken Age feels like a game made by developers that have played lots of VR games themselves and have drawn inspiration from some of the best. Out of the gate it’s got vibes of Stormland (2019) and Lone Echo (2017), single-player […]

DeepMind, Google’s AI research lab, announced the release of Genie 3, a new AI system capable of generating interactive virtual environments in real-time—and bringing us one step closer to the Holodeck.

Google says in a DeepMind update that with a simple text prompt, Genie 3 can create dynamic, navigable scenes that run at 24 frames per second in 720p resolution.

Granted, Genie 3 can be only be used on flatscreen monitors, so there’s no telling when we’ll get something similar for VR headsets. For example, Quest […]
