Best games for Oculus Rift

Sony, HTC and other companies are gradually introducing their own model of video glasses. These devices are the direct and direct competitors of Oculus Rift. However, for now, the Oculus Rift has nothing to be afraid of - when this device appears on the market in 2016, users will grab such video glasses as hotcakes. Why? A large number of cool games are being prepared for the platform.

Toys are developed by well-known companies that have created more than one iconic game, as well as newcomers who take creativity. It is unlikely that a person who will have Oculus Rift will be able to abandon toys, the description of which is under the cut.

EVE: Valkyrie

This toy should go on sale the same day as Oculus. This was announced a long time ago. Here the player will find an online universe with a huge number of objects and connections. EVE: Valkyrie will appeal to all fans of the team game, since there is promised multiplayer.

Graphics, gameplay, unusual platform - what else does a player need for happiness?

And this game is useful for science fiction lovers. The player here becomes a researcher of the solar system, which had the part to study Titan. You work at the space station, which was built by the USA and the USSR - in this timeline, Kennedy was never killed. And everyone works together. The outcome of this is an advanced space program that helped people reach Titan.

But something is wrong at the station, and you have to figure out exactly what this “not so” is.

A toy similar to the previous one in the storyline. The only difference is that in Edge of Nowhere the action takes place at the Antarctic station. The player arrives here to save the expedition.

Of course, now there are much more games than indicated on the list. This list itself will be expanded and supplemented, so in the near future we promise to publish another (or several) posts on this topic.

In the meantime, Oculus Rift has not come out, you can try other types of video glasses. For example, Google Cardboard , as the most inexpensive option. A slightly more expensive (and better) system is YesVR . And even more advanced are Fibrum video glasses. In all three models, the smartphone replaces the computer system, but the developers promise to make immersion in virtual reality really deep.

Now the amount of content created for 3D glasses is growing. In addition to games, they already make films and various applications. I think when the Oculus Rift comes out, this model will have a ready-made ecosystem of applications and a detailed list of content of various types. Well, wait.
