What to expect from the VR Games Showcase
The showcase will feature more than 25 VR games across multiple platforms, including Meta Quest, PC VR, PS VR2, and the Steam Frame, which is Valve’s upcoming VR headset.
Several games have already been confirmed for the presentation. These include PAYDAY: Aces High from Fast Travel Games, Rustmourne, Knights of Fiona, DRIFTERS: Blackout Crew, and The Lightkeepers. Flat2VR Studios will also have some of its biggest reveals yet. The studio is known for bringing flat-screen games to VR, so its segment could be one of the highlights of the event.
The organizers have also teased updates and DLC announcements for existing VR games. Alongside all of this, the showcase will feature a major surprise, although we’ll have to tune in to find out what it is. That said, the VR Games Showcase will be streamed live on the official VR Games Showcase YouTube channel, making it easy for anyone to watch it.
