From freezing LA we go to a mystical island, with lush flora and fauna, but shrouded in mystery. Family betrayal, interactive puzzle, polished graphics, and a mesmerizing storyline – these are the key ingredients of Myst[4].
Developed especially for exceptional experiences in VR and on flat screen PC monitors, Myst is an excellent choice for players who enjoy high-quality graphics and sounds and want to experience immersion in an exotic environment.
You will have to wait until Q2 2021 to try the game, but you can watch the official trailer for Myst below.
3. Vertigo 2
Developer: Zulubo Productions
Platforms: Steam
Alien conspiracies are a big part of VR games in 2021 and Vertigo 2 is one of the best titles on this topic. In Vertigo 2[5], the players find themselves in an underground scientific facility. They have advanced technology at their disposal and they must use it to their best capacity to solve mysteries, fight off dark forces, and find their way back home.
It is E.T. in a VR world, because the twist of the game is that the player is an alien, trapped by humans in the research facility. The game offers all sorts of exciting interactions, such as friendly drones and various parallel universes to explore.
Although the game is set to launch as late as Q4 2021, we believe it’s worth the wait. Here is a trailer to whet your appetite.
4. Wraith: The Oblivion – Afterlife
Developer: Fast Travel Games
Platform: Steam, Oculus
If you are not ready to wait, here is a game planned to launch early in 2021. Wraith: The Oblivion – Afterlife[6] is one of the horror VR games in 2021, where the player is immersed in Barclay Mansion. A decadent, Hollywood-style residence, the mansion is full of terrible secrets, which frighten even the dead. This is a place of darkness and terror, with Spectres hiding behind corners and in dark corridors.
The player has to fight off the Spectres, using their special powers: handling objects from a distance, passing through walls, and increasing their abilities as they progress through the game. This is a first-person shooter type of game, offering a deeply immersive experience.
