Avatar: The Last Airbender doesn’t have an official VR game, although you’d be forgiven for double-taking as you bend all four elements in the multiplayer action game Elements Divided, now available on Quest 2 and above and PC VR headsets.

Developed by Loco Motion and published by Fast Travel Games, Elements Divided lets you go head-to-head in online combat, or take on hordes of foes in co-op mode.

Like in the Avatar TV series, each element has its own fighting style, which includes 60 attacks and abilities across the four core elements—fire, water, air, […]

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered just released on PC and console, offering up a modern, refreshed version of Bethesda’s beloved 2006 open world RPG. And before we could even say “stop right there, criminal scum!”, VR players are already under the hood.

One of Bethesda’s most notable improvements has been bringing Oblivion to Unreal Engine 5 rather than the game’s original Gamebryo engine, meaning it not only featues improved textures, character, models animations, and lighting, but it’s also effectively opening up the game to modders who want to jump […]

The CEO of Snap Inc, the company behind Snapchat and the Spectacles AR glasses, will take the stage at AWE 2025 in June to highlight the company’s latest developments in AR. The prominent placement on the event’s schedule comes as Snap aims to strengthen its foothold in the XR industry.

Snap may be one of the only companies offering fully standalone AR glasses that you can get today, but the company is still seen as an outsider among the broader XR community.

That’s partly because […]

Granted, all three of these titles benefitted from massive traction on other headsets before landing as launch […]

In late 2023, the studio announced it was pushing its “final content update” to the game with the the Bottomless Update, bringing a level editor, modifiers, and new playable characters, extending the game well beyond the 10+ hour campaign.

Still, the final update wasn’t really final. In December 2024, Tsiakalis-Brown announced the award-winning shooter-adventure was getting its first paid DLC, Into the Aether.

Founded in 2016, Sandbox VR is one of the few out-of-home VR attractions to survive the COVID-19 pandemic, having reemerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in late 2020 after being forced to lay off a majority of staff and effectively close doors for much of that year.
