VR game

Headset-based digital play

A VR game is a video game played using virtual reality technology—a headset that immerses the player in a three-dimensional digital environment.

Players interact by moving their bodies and hands rather than just pressing buttons: I got so into the VR game I nearly punched a hole in my wall.

The format suits horror, exploration, and rhythm games particularly well.
