You can’t own a Meta Quest without owning at least one rhythm action game. The genre is packed full of innovative titles delivering energetic musical vibes. Joining this selection is techToy Studio’s Symphoni, a game that mixes classical music with conductor-style gameplay. And as our friends over at 131XR find in their latest review, Symphoni is quite the compelling experience.

Virtual pet simulators for Meta Quest are few and far between. Bogo was a fan favourite for a while until Meta decided to discontinue the app in early 2024. If you’re a cat lover, then Neko Atsume Purrfect Kitty Collector is a good game to try. But what if you want something more? Maybe a creature that breathes flames and can fly? Thankfully, Spunge Games has just the answer in its new mixed reality offering, Eggy. And as our friends over at 131XR have found in their review, Eggy could very well melt your heart.

Shooting games in VR are nothing new. The medium lends itself well to the FPS genre, with its intrinsic immersive nature and motion controllers as standard. So standing out from the crowd isn’t easy, and while Harpagun won’t be the right fit for everyone, you’ll learn in 131XR’s review that it’s at least doing something different.

Ever wondered what it would be like to whack a malleable clay head in VR? Probably not, but now you don’t need to, either! Developer Super Hyper Mega has released HIT, a whacky (sorry) sandbox game where punching, shooting and bashing various heads is the order of the day. Our friends over at 131XR have taken the time to review HIT, finding it an amusing time killer.

There aren’t many real-time strategy (RTS) games for VR headsets, especially where mixed reality technology is concerned. While titles such as Brass Tactics and Townsmen VR showed the potential of Command and Conquer-style gameplay in VR, the genre hasn’t been embraced anywhere near the same as on PC. Looking to change that dynamic is Crystal Commanders, and 131XR’s review finds a game worthy of the crown for Meta Quest.

VR and magic-based games have been a perfect mix from day one. Stepping into a fantasy realm to cast lightning spells or throw fireballs never gets old, and the latest title to cast players in a magical adventure is Magitek VR. From indie team Tek Studios, Magitek VR has been reviewed by 131XR, finding a game that could be well worth your time.

Zen Studio is quite a prolific team when it comes to pinball. Sure, the studio has created various other titles – the likes of Circus Electrique and CastleStorm II in recent years – but it’s the virtual pinball they always seem to come back to. Pinball FX VR is their latest, recently launched on Meta Quest headsets, and our friends over at 131XR put together a review of the game to let you know why it’s worth diving into in VR.

Puzzle connoisseurs are well catered to on Meta Quest. There’s an abundance of titles to choose from, from escape rooms like Last Labyrinth and I Expect You to Die through to actual jigsaw games like Puzzling Places. Escape rooms are some of the most popular in the genre, with the latest coming from Mastery VR in the form of Room Escape. But can it make a dent in this space? 131XR’s Room Escape review has all the details.

VR has a never-ending assortment of rhythm action games, but few of these contain actual narratives. Looking to bridge that gap is Rose City Games, with its first in-house VR game, Lovesick. A title that aims to connect several genres, as 131XR’s review finds, Lovesick doesn’t quite manage to immerse players in its ideas.

The long awaited launch of the Meta Quest edition of MADiSON arrived upon us with great anticipation. However, while the PC VR edition of the game was warmly received in 2024, a year is a long time in the realm of VR. While MADiSON isn’t a bad experience on Meta Quest, according to 131XR’s review, there’s too much evidence of its flatscreen roots to be considered of the quality of many of its VR horror peers.
