Supernatural picks up where Beat Saber leaves off, designed for workouts from the ground up. It didn’t take long for gamers and developers alike to realize that VR was a great place to work out, especially after Beat Saber (also on this list) proved to be the Quest’s first true breakout game, leaving players sweaty and exhausted. If that sounds like fun, give it a go-but priced at $40, think carefully before you complete your purchase. There are meaningful decisions to make with multiple paths to victory, and if you always choose to walk into every situation with an itchy trigger finger, you’ll often end up dead. The game is deep and tells a lengthy story, with a lot of crafting at your disposal to build weapons and level up. That might not sound like a heartfelt endorsement for the game, but for the right kind of gamer, it’s an awesome example of what a big budget, A-list game from a major studio can be like in VR. The game also relies on movement mechanics that put you at heightened risk of motion sickness, so VR newbies might need to acclimate to VR before trying this title. In other words, loving the TV show doesn’t qualify you to love this game. This game wasn’t made for me, because I find VR zombies terrifying, and The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners isn’t a good choice for casual gamers who, like me, don’t want to come face-to-face with horror in VR-it’s a zombie combat game, after all. Let’s get this out of the way right up front: Do. One of the biggest differences is that Wooorld offers up a more limited rendering of Earth 3D data, which was undoubtedly done to lighten the load on Quest’s more modest mobile chipset.The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners BUY FROM OCULUS Original Article (January 20th, 2022): Wooorld (that’s three ‘o’s) isn’t being developed by Google, however it appears to be making good use of Google Maps APIs, giving it access to all the 2D and 3D data you’d find on Google Earth VR.

We’ve included the new launch trailer, embedded above. Wooorld also launched on Quest with a GeoGuessr-style mini-game called ‘Where in the Wooorld’, which puts your geographical knowledge to the test in VR. Featuring passthrough AR so you can browse 3D maps of the world in the comfort of your own home, you’ll also be able to move through millions of 360 street view images, sketch anywhere, take pictures, and save 360 images too, all in multiplayer mode.

Update (October 26th, 2022): After a long wait, Wooorld is finally here on Quest 2 and Quest Pro, priced at $15 on the Meta Quest Store. Although Google Earth VR is a PC VR only app, a third-party Quest app called Wooorldhas launched on the Quest platform that not only offers up much of the magic of Earth VR but also the multiplayer fun that lets you tour around the world with friends and family. If you’ve played around with the PC VR app Google Earth VR, you’ve probably lost yourself visiting your hometown, or mapping out new adventures thanks to its extensive 3D building scans.
