Not a huge weeks this week, with most of the note-worthy releases being exclusive to Rift, but the biggest game of the week is appearing on all three platforms at least.
If you missed last week’s releases they’re here. And don’t forget that UploadVR has a Steam community group, complete with a curated list of recommendations so that you don’t have to waste any money finding out what’s good in the world of VR. We also have a top list of the absolute best Oculus Rift and HTC Vive games at the corresponding links.
Brass Tactics Arena, from Hidden Path Entertainment
Price: Free (Rift)
This is a free taster of what’s in store for next week’s big release, Brass Tactics, though it’s a meaty experience in its own right. You can take on friends across a map in this real-time strategy game from the developers that brought you Age of Empires. A great chance to see if the full game is your thing.
Here are our thoughts.
MasterWorks: Journey Through History, from CyArk
Price: Free (Rift)
Another VR travel app that transports you to some of the worlds best-known locations. Rather than a series of 360 degree videos, though, MasterWorks uses realistic VR environments that you can fully explore within VR.
Knockout League, from Grab Games
Price: $29.99 (Rift, Vive, Windows)
An excellent Vive Studios boxing game makes its way into full release mode this week. Knockout League is basically punch out for VR; you take on increasingly tougher enemies with your Move controllers, learning their techniques and then dodging their attacks. It’s a great workout and a lot of fun.
Here’s our full review.
