If there's ever been a game that you've wanted to use to showcase what virtual reality experiences can really be, Half-Life: Alyx is the game you'll want to get into. While it's not Half-Life 3, it's a game built specifically for VR headsets by Valve, although the gaming giant doesn't really expect to sell a large number of copies.

While Half-Life: Alyx may be a niche market, it's also a prime example of how good VR gaming can be when given the time and expertise to develop. On our sister site PC Gamer (opens in a new tab), Christopher Livingston praises Half-Life: Alyx for its attention to detail, interactivity, storytelling, setting, and more.

And while it's not quite a Quest 2 game, as it's not available on the Oculus store, by using a PC link cable to connect Quest 2 to your gaming PC, you can enjoy one of these. The best VR game ever made: Half-Life: Alyx.

If you've ever imagined what it would be like to be a polygon assassin through a series of extreme environments, then SuperHot VR could be perfect for you. The game takes SuperHot VR's core timing mechanics that only really move when you're moving and takes it into the virtual reality world. So when you physically dodge a bullet, the projectile's path changes from moving forward to a faster speed.

Normal SuperHot VR is pretty cool, but ironically it feels supercharged in SuperHot VR. Suddenly, you're in the middle of slow-motion action that feels insanely insane. You have to really consider where you are in space and think a few steps ahead to narrowly avoid death.

SuperHot VR is also quite fun; Throwing a book or even your own gun at an oncoming enemy and watching them fall is a good combination of Jason Bourne, John Wick and Austin Powers. Just be aware that it can be very tempting. And if you don't have a lot of space around you, you can find a suitable hook aimed at enemies and end up crashing a wall in the real world SuperHot VR!

If you throw Guitar Hero, Dance Dance Revolution, and just a little bit of Star Wars in the blender, you'll get a Beat Saber. In this game you match the color of your sword to slash the corresponding colored blocks at the correct angle.

In addition to the increasing speed, there are dangers like bombs and walls that you must dodge. The result is a full-body workout with a vibrant EDM soundtrack. Beat Saber is a fascinating experience that can only succeed in virtual reality.

The expansive single-player career mode will challenge you for hours with the increasingly specific requirements needed to beat the campaign. Free Play lets you choose any song to use with switchable modifiers to aid or challenge you in Beat Saber.

A new player can turn on a bonus multiplier helper, while a Sadis - I mean expert enhances the challenge by limiting their game to a single mistake before failing. Recently, Beat Saber added a multiplayer update so you can compete directly with your friends to see who is the most skilled swordsman in your group of friends.

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners is Quest's first AAA single-player game. This massive endeavor combines a lengthy campaign, satisfying physics, and realistic environments for an immersive horror experience. You'll sneak, shoot, and find your way through zombie-infested New Orleans with every major choice you make leading to equally devastating consequences.

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners advanced crafting system lets you craft temporary gears with reliable weights and scales. Just like in real life, you will have to properly handle these fragile weapons with long-term use. Between degraded weapons and a limited stamina system, you must decide on the best path to complete the goal of The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners. Stealth approaches can make things more difficult as a mission progresses. On the other hand, rolling around to encounter flaming guns often leaves you with no weapons to fight off a bunch of undead.

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners strikes a balance between role-playing and entertainment that the Quest store is desperately lacking. Besides the PC-exclusive Half Life: Alyx, this is the best AAA VR campaign.

Sometimes you need a break from virtual violence. The Climb is where Crytek's VR game The Climb comes in. The developer that powers us Far Cry and Crysis has created a great freestyle climbing simulator to trade in gun cassettes to hear the "oh ooh" from the players. The CRYENGINE-rendered realistic environment of The Climb gives you the thrill of hanging from cliffs from the Alps to the American Southwest.

All courses of The Climb game offer a great challenge and require the use of appropriate grasping techniques. There are multiple paths around each ascent for you to explore with different views of the scenery and valleys as a bonus. Successfully completing the climb allows you to level up and buy new gear. Instead, unsuccessful runs are awarded fear-inducing plunges.

The Climb is a breathtaking experience both visually and physically. If you're looking for a physically challenging escape from the gloom of the real world, get excited and grab The Climb.
