Oculus Quest is Facebook's last piece of hardware in their first generation of VR devices. It has six degrees of freedom and Facebook has made it relatively easy for developers to port their Oculus Rift games to the Oculus Quest. Because of this, there are a number of games that have already been announced that you can look forward to.
Nonstop fun
Beat Saber
our pick
Beat Saber is one of the most popular VR games across a number of platforms. In it, you use both controllers and motion tracking to swipe at blocks that are synced to music. None of those words do the game justice, and having it available at launch is a huge deal for the Quest.
Good clean fun
Rec Room
If you own a VR headset and you don't know Rec Room you should really change that. Rec Room is one of the most well rounded VR experiences I've ever had. It has a myriad of adventures to go on, including a full-size Battle Royale paintball game, a pirate ship adventure, and laser tag.
Next level artistry
Tilt Brush by Google
What if the entire world was your canvas, and your paintbrushes could draw light and sound and emotion with the same effort as any other paint? The folks at Google have been bringing fantasy to virtual reality for years now with Tilt Brush, and for the first time, that experience will be entirely cord-free thanks to Oculus Quest.
LIGHT SABERS!
Vader Immortal: episode 1
Not really a game, technically, but a VR story taking you through some of the adventures everyone's favorite villain experiences in the Star Wars universe. The folks at ILMxLAB have quite the story cooked up for this title, and they're very excited to share it with everyone when Quest launches!
The cutest game ever
Moss
Moss by Polyarc is one of my favorite games to play in Windows Mixed Reality and Rift so I am excited to see it coming to the Oculus Quest. Leading Quil, the mouse protagonist, around the beautiful world will be a complete joy with the freedom from cables that the Quest promises.
Matrix VR
Superhot VR
Superhot VR is one of the games I compare all VR games against. The unique visual style and gameplay make it the perfect VR game and I cannot wait to use it in the Oculus Quest, free from tethers.
Western styles
Dead and Buried 2
Billed as a VR paintball game, Dead and Buried 2 improves on the original and looks to be an excellent game for the Quest. It could be one of the arena games as well so watch out for that.
Vertigo inducing
The Climb
The Climb is already a fan favorite with Rift users so it will be interesting to see how it translates over to the Oculus Quest. Having the freedom to move around more should make the game more enjoyable and scarier if, like me, you are afraid of heights.
Why? Why would you do this?
Face your Fears
Also known to me as the NOPE game, Face your Fears by Turtle Rock Games is literally the stuff of nightmares. the game is designed to show you common phobias that people have and ramp up that experience to insane levels.
Classic sports
Sport Scramble
We have now confirmed the game that what was once called Project Tennis Scramble, will now be called Sports Scramble and will have tennis and bowling at launch, with baseball to follow. This reminds me of everything I liked about Wii Tennis.
Don't speak
The Unspoken
The Unspoken from Insomniac games has been on the Rift for a while now and the magical, mystical fighting game is a great choice to port over to the Quest. Because the Quest is using the same 6DoF touch controllers as the rift, The Unspoken should have the exact same gameplay as it does now.
Ultron style death
Robo Recall
Robo Recall from Epic Games is a bullet storm game with some unique gameplay design. Using it on the Oculus Quest will bring a lot of needed freedom to the game allowing you to spin 360 degrees to destroy killer robots en masse.
Modern Dance
Rave Runner
Rave Runner is a music-based game that gets you to flow with music to earn points. You use both your hands independently to line up with colorful representations of music and can dance around as you play to feel the music.
Nope zombies
Death Horizon
Death Horizon traps you inside a horrifying setup in which you're trapped inside a building with the undead. In the game, you use rifles, machine guns, and other weapons to try to escape alive and in one piece. It's another nope game for me.
IDDQD
Journey of the Gods
Journey of the Gods looks pretty epic. Huge sweeping vistas, a cartoony graphics style, and a mix of combat experiences make this a game to look out for. Plus, you get to go full-on GODMODE, so that should be fun.
Fishing Fun
Orbus VR Reborn
This game has some excellent looking game mechanics. The Bow, sword, and fishing rely on you actually getting better at the physicality of it. Hopefully, it doesn't rely on it too much, because I'm old and I suck at physical things. I'm still willing to try though.
Argghhh
Space Pirate Trainer
Space Pirate Trainer is a firm favorite with everyone who plays it. It's a brilliant combination of Bulletstorm and Space Invaders, and, because of the unique way the VR works, all of this is happening around you in a frenzy of neon insanity. Love it.
Picard Puzzles
Shadow Point VR
Puzzle games in VR are fantastic. You get so much space in a truly 3D world to explore and the developers get that much space to really mess with your mind. It also has Sir Patrick freaking Stuart doing the narration and for me, that's an Instant buy.
I feel like dancing!
Dance Central
VR is the natural evolution for the Dance Central games, after all, they were some of the first motion control games, so it makes sense for them to go to full body motion too. The music they have in the game sounds excellent, but boy-o, am I going to do badly at this one.
Zero G killing
Echo Combat
This game looks to be a team deathmatch in zero-g set to the visuals of the Lawnmower man movie, and that's perfect. You get to fly around shooting voxel people with huge guns and watch them disintegrate into tiny triangles. It's the future all the best 1980's movies told us about.
Bow fighting
QuiVR
QuiVR has been around a little while now and has its own cult following. It makes sense to bring it to the quest has the freedom of movement you will get from the wireless headset will increase the games playability and the amount of enjoyment you'll get.
Wierd and wacky
Job Simulator
We all know Job simulator right? It's weird, it's funny, it's weird again. Another great title for us to be excited by. When the Quest finally drops this will be on everyone's list.
Samurai combat
Sairento VR
In Sairento VR you're a cyber ninja set in a reimagined futuristic Japan. The combat system includes high jumps, slow-motion that's reminiscent of bullet time, and both sword and gun combat.
Horror combat
The Brookhaven Experiment
Another shooting game, the Brookhaven Experiment has you use pistols to battle monsters who have become your enemies in a reality that is being torn apart due to an experiment gone wrong.
While we do our best to make sure every game available at launch arrives on this list, we don't always catch them all, we aren't Ash Ketchum. We will continue to update this as and when we can, to make sure it is as up to date as possible.
