Halloween is upon us as we’re flooded with horror-themed releases this week. We’re offered a Bloody Mary escape game, Ghost Town shooting gallery, and the dreaded Trump simulator (proceeds go to a good cause). Yore VR, an open-world sandbox title, is the major stand-out from this collection. In the meantime, if you missed last week,...
The HTC Vive is a mysterious beast. It’s a wonderful headset with great games and experiences, but it’s something we seem to take on a week-by-week basis. There are no huge Vive press conferences (at least not in the west) to announce big games that are years out, or developer conferences to tease the next...
Got through PlayStation VR’s massive launch line-up yet? If so, then there’s some really good stuff waiting for you this week. We’ve got the return of one of the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive’s best games, and a new IP that should appeal to hardcore gamers. In the meantime, if you missed last week, you...

Following the conference, Quartz reporter Dave Gershgorn uncovered a now-removed T-Mobile listing for a new variation of Alcatel’s Idol 4S...
When Island 359 released onto Steam Early Access two months ago for the HTC Vive, it was met with a lot of love and excitement from fans. In our review, we stated that the premise and gameplay were rock solid, with tons of room for expansion, but there were occasional bugs and a lack of...
When an email crossed my inbox to notify me about a fishing game on Steam that was receiving Vive support — including motion controllers — I got pretty excited. I’m far from a professional fisherman and have in fact not gone fishing in over a year, but it’s something I always enjoy in video games....
Game Cooks is an independent games studio founded in Beirut by two Lebanese brothers – Arz and Lebnan Nader. Since 2011, they’ve released over a dozen successful mobile games on iTunes and Google Play, but HOVR for Gear VR is their first foray into virtual reality.

Obduction, the highly rated first-person adventure game from Cyan, the makers of Riven (1997) and Myst (1993), has been available on traditional monitors for quite some time now, but what virtual reality enthusiasts have been salivating over is the pre-release VR version we got our hands on back in late August.
