Get ready for an exciting end to 2025 with a fresh batch of VR games! From thrilling adventures to unique experiences, we've got you covered. But here's where it gets controversial: some anticipated titles have been delayed, leaving us with a few surprises instead. Let's dive into the December highlights for Quest, Steam, and PS VR2.
The past few months have been a VR game lover's dream, with November delivering an impressive lineup. From the action-packed Roboquest VR to the enchanting Lumines Arise, there was something for every taste. And that's not even mentioning the fresh ports like Thrasher and RUSH, which added even more variety to the mix.
As we approach the end of the year, the VR game releases show no signs of slowing down. Keep an eye out for the UploadVR Winter Showcase on December 5, where we'll reveal more exciting titles on our YouTube channel. Our upcoming VR games list is also regularly updated, so you won't miss a beat.
Now, let's talk about a few notable exclusions. Star Trek: Infection, initially confirmed for a December launch, has gone silent, with only a "coming soon" status on store pages. We're also saying goodbye to The Amygdala Protocol, which faced repeated delays, and other titles with vague release dates.
