Hello, good people! Cas here, and this is part 2 of the upcoming VR games 2020 video.
Here are 15 more VR games to look forward to.
We are going to get started but first, subscribe to see more videos like this one.
And check out my previous video right here if you haven’t yet.
And now, join me beyond reality.
Number 1.
Lone Echo II
Lone Echo was one of the best games released in 2017.
This space single-player adventure game puts you aboard a space station that's orbiting
Saturn.
You are Jack, an artificially intelligent robot, and you are helping Captain Olivia
find out what is causing a mysterious space anomaly.
The futuristic puzzles, interactive dialogue, and realistic interactions in this game are
absolutely fantastic.
You won't find this in other games a lot, even in 2020.
The 2nd installment of this game should release this year, and I expect nothing less.
If you haven't played the first game yet, then I recommend you to do so.
Number 2.
The Next Boneworks-like Game
Stress Level Zero, the developers of Boneworks, has said that they are working on another
physics-based game like Boneworks.
We initially thought it was going to be an Oculus Quest exclusive.
However, a developer has said on Steam that the title is not going to be exclusive to
any platform.
They are putting it anywhere they can, which is exciting news if you don't have a Quest.
There isn't much more info yet.
But Boneworks was a big success, so I think this new game is one to look out for too.
Number 3.
Project Wingman
Project Wingman is a combat flight action game to be released as a flat PC game, and
VR game.
It is a single-player game that focuses on easy pickup and play, as well as fast-paced,
challenging flight action.
Players will dogfight, strike, and fly in an alternate history of Earth.
The developers promise a Story Mode, a Conquest game mode, and a Free-Flight mode.
There will also be 20 different aircrafts and over 40 unique weapons.
All of which will also be available in VR.
In 2018, the indie developers from Australia tripled their funding goal in a successful
Kickstarter.
So we are hoping that this year will be the year we hear about a release date on this
game.
Number 4.
The Wizards - Dark Times
The Wizards - Dark Times is a standalone expansion to The Wizards.
An atmospheric spell-casting adventure by Carbon Studio.
We liked the first game as the spell-casting required you to actually memorize specific
hand gestures, making you feel like you are a real wizard.
This single-player game features a campaign mode that has time travel, big fantasy creatures
to battle, and rich lore.
I've tried a demo of this game last year, which looked stunning, and it definitely felt
improved over the previous game.
Number 5.
Naau: The Lost Eye
Naau: The Lost Eye is Studio Gamebit's debut game.
They describe this game as a narrative VR action, adventure, and puzzle game using physics
mechanics.
You will find yourself in the ruins of old cities, like temples, sky cities, canyons,
and dark underground cities where the world is upside down.
There is combat as well with a variety of advanced weaponry.
The trailer shows some of this combat as well as some lovely art-style.
Especially those big monsters look fantastic.
Number 6.
After The Fall
After The Fall is by the creators of Arizona Sunshine.
This time comes another post-apocalypse action shooter with online multiplayer co-op gameplay.
Instead of sunny Arizona, though, this time, you are in a cold and snowy Los Angeles.
A mysterious outbreak in an alternate 1980s caused by the excessive use of designer drugs
birthed the terrible Snowbreed.
You are immune to it, so together with other survivors, you go head to head with the relentless
hordes and larger-than-life bosses in a bid to take back the city.
I tried a demo of this game too, and you can tell that these devs have implemented what
they learned from their first game to improve this one.
Number 7.
Tarzan VR
Tarzan VR, the name says it already!
In this game, you can swing, climb, swim, and fight your way across savage lands like
Tarzan.
This is an episodic single-player adventure game, and based on the trailer, it looks like
it will have cel-shaded graphics that make the game look cartoonish, but without affecting
the realism.
It also looks like there will be freedom in moving around, battles with melee weapons,
or even your bare fists.
Plus, we might be able to meet Jane, which sounds like pleasure in itself ;)
Number 8.
Traffic Jams
Traffic Jams is a job simulator type of game where you are a traffic controller.
It is up to you to keep things rolling and prevent traffic from piling up.
It looks like a chill and straightforward game, but what makes the game more interesting
is that there will be unexpected events.
Like buzzing bees who can sting you, or even a zombie apocalypse and more random events
can happen.
Traffic Jams definitely sounds like a game that would be great for kids or VR newcomers
as well .
Number 9.
Population: One
POPULATION: ONE is a battle royale game, which reminds us of Fortnite.
As any battle royale game nowadays, you are dropped randomly on a map with the mission
to be the last man standing.
The game features a giant world where you can climb everything, even the tallest structures.
You also have a jetpack so you can fly anywhere, and you can also build any structures you
want as protection or distraction.
The game has single-player missions and multiplayer cross-play with the Oculus Quest and PC VR.
This game has been announced for quite a while, but the latest email said the game will launch
this year.
Number 10.
The Walking Dead: Onslaught
The Walking Dead: Onslaught is a new game by veteran VR-studio Survios.
You might know them from Creed: Rise to Glory, Raw Data, Westworld... the list goes on...
What makes this action-adventure game different from the earlier released The Walking Dead
Saints & Sinners is that this game will have voice-acting by the real The Walking Dead
actors.
You can play as Rick, Michonne, and Daryl, for example, and hear them speak.
You can scavenge and wield an arsenal of the TV show's iconic weapons.
As fans of the show, that is just awesome.
There will also be online co-operative gameplay.
I tried a demo of this game last year, and the game does have more of an arcade approach
as in more linear levels and a points system.
The combat will be interesting to try as well with what the devs call context-based physics
and a progressive dismemberment system.
Number 11.
Sniper Elite VR
Sniper Elite VR is a stealth-action game set in Italy during World War 2, where you will
fight for the Italian Resistance.
This is the VR adaption of the Sniper Elite series by studio Rebellion.
It is the series first time that you can play the game in first-person.
You can interact with authentic World War 2 weapons, and there will be a new X-ray kill
camera designed for VR.
I am very interested to see how they will implement that as it looks super cool in other
Sniper Elite games, but it does look intense in VR.
Number 12.
Phantom Covert Ops
Phantom Covert Ops is a stealth action game with one of the most original and smart locomotion
mechanics we've seen so far.
You are an elite and deadly covert operative with a single night to prevent all-out war.
No pressure ;) Sitting on a tactical kayak, you move around by actually paddling in real
life.
This makes the game very immersive and still, very, comfortable to play.
Yes, I tried a demo of this game a year ago, and I enjoyed it a lot.
It also has exciting gameplay as you use military-grade weapons and equipment to evade or neutralize
enemies.
It's up to you how you play.
Number 13.
Facebook Horizon
Facebook Horizon is a social MMO VR game.
Everyone in Horizon can create their own interactive worlds with easy-to-use built-in tools.
Facebook says that you can even create a game inside this game that you can share with others.
If you're not into creating yourself, you can explore the world and its creations yourself.
Facebook promotes this experience as something that's ever-expanding with always something
to do for everyone.
Some people compare this experience with the Ready Player One Oasis, if you don't know
that movie yet, then you should definitely watch it.
You can already sign up for the Facebook Horizon beta that should be out this year.
Number 14.
Ilysia
Ilysia is an upcoming VR MMORPG set in the world of Ilysia.
It will have area bosses, dungeons, caves, and large outdoor cities.
The developers also promise hundreds of hours of questing, exploring, climbing, and hunting.
Each player will get a personal caravan that they can decorate and customize, which can
also be used as a means of fast travel.
There will be airships, pets, and mounts.
The studio has a supportive community with over a hundred Patreon members.
We haven't heard much about this game, though, and it does seem like a massive undertaking.
So we're hoping to hear more soon.
Number 15.
Holoswitch
Holoswitch is not a game but rather a handy VR application, so I wanted to add it to this
list as it is coming very soon.
With Holoswitch, you can connect your smartphone to your VR games so that you do not miss any
calls, messages, or other notifications while playing VR.
You can even use your smartphone as a surveillance camera or capture photos and videos in VR
without taking off your headset.
Currently, the app is only available for Android phones and a compatible Bluetooth version.
The iOS version is planned for the future.
So out of this list, is there one game that you are most excited about?
