2024 was a fantastic year for VR games, but it still wasn’t enough to win over skeptics.The outlook for VR gaming looked fantastic coming out of 2023My personal favorite this year is Thrasher, a VR follow-up to rhythm cult classic Thumper.Batman: Arkham Shadow, which has unseated Half-Life: Alyx as the tech’s crown jewel.There’s a sense that the tech is evolving, and its games along with it.2024 was a fantastic year for VR games, and the fact that it still wasn’t enough to win over skeptics means that nothing will.The truth may just be that VR has hit its ceiling.When the tech is cheaper and more comfortable than ever, and games are as good as they are on any traditional platform, what more can companies do?As long as VR gaming design great games around the player base that exists, VR gaming could comfortably remain in a happy niche for a while longer.Instead, I hope that companies learn to enjoy where they’re at now.
