Top Ten VR Games Coming Out in 2025
Hard to believe Summer 2025 is almost over. As we head into the final quarter, the state of VR games has been pretty good. VR Games such as Arken Age, Alien:Rogue Incursion, Midnight Walk, Ghost Town, Into The Radius 2, Ghosts of Tabor, Undead Citadel and Hitman: World of Assassination are only the tip of the iceberg. It’s been a great year so far and the releases don’t look to be slowing down for the remainder.
So we at COGConnected have browsed the upcoming VR Games and made a list. Below, in no particular order, are ten of the most anticipated VR releases for the rest of 2025. There’s a great range of game types here from shooters to SF first person action-adventure to World 2 (and 1) warplanes. There are also two high profile characters coming to VR. One from the PC gaming world with Thief and the other from the superhero genre, the merc with a mouth, Deadpool himself. VR gamers have plenty to be excited about.
1 – Zero Caliber 2 VR Remastered (Steam)
Zero Caliber 2 Remastered brings the full VR shooter experience to PC. Get ready for intense, cinematic firefights, a full single player and Co-op campaign, PvP, a huge arsenal to unlock, and character customization.
2 – Gunman Contracts VR (Steam)
Gunman Contracts – Stand Alone had its start as a Half-Life:Alyx mod. Now it is a single player shooter experience.

3 – Of Lies & Rain VR (Steam, Meta, PSVR 2)
Of Lies and Rain is a story-driven first person shooter built exclusively for VR. Set in a dark, sci-fi, post-apocalyptic world, at the edge of the real and digital realm. You’ll fight to reclaim your past and save humanity from the brink of extinction. This one has the DNA of Half Life: Alyx all over it.
4 – Thief VR – Legacy of Shadow (Steam, Meta, PSVR 2)
In this new VR game in the Thief universe you play as Magpie, a cunning thief orphaned by Northcrest’s brutality and shaped by the streets, who steals as the only means to survive.

Full-body awareness and true-to-life interactions deliver unmatched presence in every moment. Ndreams has proclaimed this VR game of AAA stature. The big question VR gamers have, has Ndreams made a game with a campaign greater than five hours?
7 – Tracked: Shoot to Survive VR (Meta)
Tracked: Shoot to Survive is the brand new IP from Incuvo, the studio that previously brought us the VR adaptation of Green Hell. This is a deadly new survival game set in an area inspired by British Columbia.
8 – Street Gods VR (Meta)
You’ve gotten to wield a hammer in God of War but that was a flat game. How about doing the same thing in VR with Thor’s hammer? Street Gods is a physical VR action rogue-lite set in a fractured New York City, where the nine Norse realms have collided with the modern world. Ancient powers spill into the streets. Reality is falling apart. And the legendary hammer Mjolnir has chosen you.

10 – Aces of Thunder VR (Steam, Meta, PSVR 2)
Delayed several times but this last delay was with good reason. The game is going to release with a single player campaign! Experience the thrill of aerial combat like never before with Aces of Thunder, the upcoming VR flight simulation game with high fidelity graphics made specifically with capabilities of latest generation VR helmets in mind.
Yes. Things are hopping on the VR front! There are even more games releasing like Glassbreakers: Champions Of Moss, ZIX, and ExoShock. And more! So clean those headset lenses and get your VR headsets ready.
