All Virtual Reality

When it comes to virtual reality gaming, VR PC games provide a 360-degree immersive audiovisual experience. VR and VR headsets allow you to step even further into interactive, first-person-style video games from franchises like Fallout, Resident Evil, Half-Life and The Elder Scrolls.

Maybe you have already tried your hand at VR gaming and know that you love it. Maybe you’re still wondering: what is virtual reality gaming really like? Maybe you’re shopping for a friend or relative who loves gaming and wants to expand into the virtual reality universe. In any case, it can be hard to be sure you’re choosing the best VR headset for your needs.

When choosing a virtual reality headset, consider compatibility with games you want to play and with any existing systems you have, such as a PlayStation console or Xbox console. For example, the PlayStation VR2 is obviously more compatible with the PS5. You might also consider a headset that can handle mixed reality, sometimes called augmented reality.

Did you know that VR games aren’t the only way to be involved in the VR experience? You can now watch 360-degree movies and shows on your television as well. In fact, the industry for immersive entertainment is just getting started, and the future will likely see a large expansion in the kind of storytelling you can enjoy from your gaming room. 

Augmented reality is another field on the forefront of visual technology. Wondering what the differences are when it comes to augmented reality vs. virtual reality? Well, an augmented reality headset will add to what you see around you rather than completely replacing it with a virtual world. So, you can still feel like you are in your own room, sitting in your comfy gaming chair, but you will see things that only exist in the game or virtual story.

Having the right VR accessories will also make your experience more comfortable and complete. Having premium straps can increase comfort during a long VR session, and haptic accessories, like haptic vests, can add another physical level of sensory immersion.
