Something about Virtual Reality just makes for great Survival Games, especially on standalone platforms like the Oculus Quest 2. Oh, and if you’re here for PCVR games then you’ll find that most of these are also available on Steam.

Maybe it’s the feeling of actually being inside of the world you’re playing in, or using your actual hands to use the tools you need to keep yourself alive. Whatever it is you’d be crazy not to try VR Survival Games on the Quest 2, it is one of the best genres to experience in Virtual Reality.

The Survival Game genre has seen a massive boost in recent years with many great flatscreen games coming out like Valheim and Sons Of The Forest, and luckily some studios have also been focusing on this genre in Virtual Reality. More and more VR Survival Games have been coming out over the years, and as more are added to the Quest platform we’ll also be adding them to this list here.

So here are the best VR Survival Games on the Oculus Quest 3 and Quest 2.

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners Chapters 1 and 2 - VR Zombie Survival Games

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners Logo

Well known as one of the greatest VR game series out there, The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners and its newest iteration The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners - Chapter 2: Retribution are knockout Zombie Survival Games on the Quest 2 based in the universe of The Walking Dead.

If you are even neutral on the concept of a zombie apocalypse you should play these games. Not only are there a ton of zombies (or rather walkers) to dispatch with one of the most straightforward yet elegant melee combat systems in VR survival gaming, but there are also human NPCs to get into firefights with and advance a very compelling story.

In this VR Survival Game there are a ton of zombies and people to fight with a variety of melee weapons and firearms

Most importantly to fans of VR Survival Games, not only will you have to fight to survive, but you will have to scavenge the ruins of New Orleans for materials to craft weapons, medical supplies, and food. Each day you will find less and less as supplies and materials from before the outbreak become scarcer and scarcer.

You’ve probably already heard of The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners, and that’s for good reason. It is one of the few VR games to combine a dangerous open world with a variety of secrets and systems to draw you into the gameplay, as well as a great story.

So if you’ve ever wanted to see how well you would do surviving in a zombie apocalypse, there’s really no better VR Survival Game I can recommend to you than The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners and it’s sequel. It’s got fantastic combat, heart pounding moments, and compelling characters.

Cosmodread - VR Sci Fi Horror Survival Game

Zombies are scary, sure, but what if they don’t scratch that scare itch for you like they used to?

Well if horror is what you want in your Virtual Reality survival game then Cosmodread is the scariest survival game on the Quest 2. In it you attempt to repair and fly a half destroyed and alien infested ship back to Earth. Along the way you collect crafting recipes to create more weapons and items to help you survive in this VR roguelike horror survival game.

*Cosmodread* combines resource scarcity and terrifying enemies to make for a fantastic VR Roguelike Survival experience

Cosmodread is not only one of the best survival games on the Quest 2, but one of the best horror games. It’s terrifying looking enemies and creepy sound design will have you sweating to open a door and jumping at dark corners. The creaks of the decaying ship combined with the disgusting fleshy sounds of the alien growth means you never feel truly safe.

You shouldn’t feel safe, either, as the aliens only grow stronger as time goes on, and they can find you anywhere.

Cosmodread uses resource scarcity and an interesting crafting system to make you think on your feet and use every resource available to you to make your way from one end of the ship to the other through all of the dangerous aliens and malfunctioning robots so that you can make it back to earth and survive.

There’s really no other VR Survival Game like it, and when you’re low on ammo and hear the roar of an alien on your trail there’s nothing scarier in Virtual Reality.

Green Hell VR - VR Jungle Survival Game

If you want a survival experience that takes you far away from civilization and deep into the bowls of the Amazon rainforest, then Green Hell VR is the game for you. The jungle is an unforgiving place in this VR Survival Game, and so are its inhabitants.

When you are not hunting for food or figuring out which plants will make you vomit up all your nutrients, you’ll be fighting for your life against predators like pumas and leopards, and the native tribespeople who are very unhappy with your presence.

Green Hell VR combines a fantastic crafting system which involves combining items in your hands with intuitive actions like wrapping vines around a simple stone axe to make it stronger, or running a sharpened stone across a long piece of wood to make a sharp spear.

Even the leeches in the water make surviving in *Green Hell VR’s* jungles difficult

Gathering resources from the jungle and then building your tools and campsites out of the natural resources of the Amazon makes the most basic necessities of survival feel difficult to achieve and very earned when you do.

For a more rugged and true to life survival experience, there is no better game than Green Hell VR. It’s less combat focused than other survival games here, though there is plenty of combat to be had, and you’ll find that in Green Hell VR you’re far more challenged by more true to life challenges of survival like building your camp, finding the right food to eat, and staying hydrated.

Also just like its flatscreen counterpart Green Hell VR has seen and will continue to see updates like it has with the addition of the free Spirits of Amazonia DLC that was recently added. Now there’s new environments, new objectives, and new ways to survive in this fantastic VR Survival Game. It just keeps getting better.

Into the Radius - Surreal VR Survival Shooter Game

What is a list of VR Survival Games for the Quest 2 without Into the Radius? Inspired by Roadside Picnic, the book which also inspired the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. movie and games, Into the Radius combines fantastic gunplay with a surreal and dangerous setting.

In it you are an explorer navigating the Pechorsk Radius, a wide section of land in Russia dominated by a massive black sphere hanging in the sky where the usual laws of reality do not apply.

While completing missions for the mysterious Committee you have to fight off hostile entities, which look a lot like humans (in most cases) but made of a strange black material, while also navigating fields of deadly anomalies that hold valuable and otherworldly artifacts inside.

*Into the Radius* has very intense and scary fighting

Into the Radius gives you a wide variety of weapons to choose from, which all handle incredibly well in Virtual Reality, and it’s gunplay is definitely a huge draw for this VR Survival Game. What enhances it beyond a normal shooter is not only the need to scavenge and hunt for artifacts to survive, but the mystery of the Pechorsk Zone.

Delving deeper and deeper into the Radius towards greater danger, while discovering bizarre sights and uncovering more about this strange place, is what makes Into the Radius a Virtual Reality Survival Game like no other.

Into the Radius is a classic of the VR Shooter and VR Survival genre, and it’s even got a sequel on the way, Into the Radius 2.

Song in the Smoke - Prehistoric Caveman VR Survival Game

Want a survival experience that not only takes you far from civilization, but back in time before civilization even existed? Then Song in The Smoke might be what you’re looking for. In this VR Survival Game you are a caveperson discovering the secrets of the land as you craft a number of tools and weapons to hunt and fight prehistoric creatures.

Surviving the vicious predators of a wilderness before time is the hard part, but there is also a lot of fun to be had in the exploration of Song in the Smoke’s untouched wilderness. Not only do you find the sticks and stones needed to create your weapons, but mystical herbs and fruits to craft powerful elixirs.

Song in the Smoke immerses you in its mysticism from the very beginning, and through its many areas you can find secrets that not only reveal more of the forest around you, but your own potential.

Medieval Dynasty VR - A VR Medieval Life Simulator and VR Survival Game

The *Medieval Dynasty New Settlement* Logo

Medieval Dynasty New Settlement, or rather Medieval Dynasty VR, is a VR remake for the Meta Quest 3 and Meta Quest 2 of the 2021 flatscreen medieval life simulator Medieval Dynasty. Unlike other Virtual Reality survival games on this list, Medieval Dynasty VR focuses more on being a life simulator than a purely survival focused experience.

This means you'll be spending a lot of time talking to the locals, completing tasks for them, and most importantly building a thriving settlement of your own on any of a few available plots of free land. It's very satisfying to go from nothing to putting up your first house to sleep and cook in, to erecting a huge variety of crafting and storage buildings to harvest all kinds of resources and make all kinds of tools.

What is most satisfying about Medieval Dynasty VR is engaging with its huge variety of crafting systems to make all sorts of things from tools to planks to pottery and beyond, and most importantly gathering and constructing buildings. You can even hire workers to work on your land for you and find a wife to marry and have children to continue your dynasty in future generations.

Stirring up some soup in *Medieval Dynasty VR*

While Medieval Dynasty New Settlement might not have the most satisfying end game at the moment, because those quests and tasks do eventually dry up and become repetitive, it does have a huge map to explore and secret treasures to find as well.

Uncovering the mysteries of Green Valley, the place where you are building your new home, offers some survival challenges of its own, though it is not hard to keep yourself hydrated and fed in this game, and the combat could use some more work.

Still, it is so satisfying to build yourself and your new home up from nothing, and there are many hours of fun to be had going from a nobody to a well respected local landowner in Medieval Dynasty VR.

If you want to know more about this fantastic VR game then check out our review of Medieval Dynasty: New Settlement.

Survivorman VR: The Descent - A VR Survival Game For Teaching You Real Survival Tactics

Survivorman VR: The Descent is, of all of the VR Survival Games on this list of Virtual Reality Survival games, the most aimed at realism and teaching you actual survival tactics for the real world.

In this Virtual Reality game, you play as a survivor of a helicopter crash on a cold and desolate mountain. From the start you have very little to work with, and the cold and darkness of the arctic wastes that you have to survive in closing in around you. Luckily survival expert Les Stroud will tell you exactly what you need to do in order to stay alive, stay dry, stay warm, and stay fed.

Survivorman VR: The Descent is more of a survival learning tool than a real game, but is very interesting nonetheless. If you're interested in VR games for the purpose of learning actual things about the real world, then I highly suggest you take a look at this one.

The downside of Survivorman is that it's less a game and more a way to introduce you to these methods of real world survival for this potential real world situation. There is very little replayability, and it functions more as an interactive lecture than a game in the traditional sense of the word. It's also a very short VR survival experience at just a couple of hours.

Still, if you're really interested in survival in the real world instead of just the virtual world, give Survivorman VR: The Descent a look and see if you've got what it takes to listen to Les Stroud's advice and stay alive on the mountain.

Huge Free Green Hell VR Update With The Spirits Of Amazonia Expansion

There’s finally more Green Hell VR for you to sink your teeth into with the huge and free Green Hell VR update that has added the new Spirits of Amazonia expansion that is available both on the Oculus Quest and PSVR versions of the game.

This expansion, which was added to the flatscreen version of Green Hell a while ago, has finally come to Virtual Reality and most notably includes a whole new story campaign, gameplay mechanics, and map.

If you’re anything like me and have been hungering for more Green Hell VR after playing through the game multiple times then I’ve got some very exciting news for you.

There’s finally more Green Hell VR for you to sink your teeth into with the huge and free Green Hell VR update that has added the new Spirits of Amazonia expansion and is available both on the Oculus Quest and PSVR versions of the game.

This expansion, which was added to the flatscreen version of Green Hell a while ago, has finally come to Virtual Reality and most notably includes a whole new story campaign, gameplay mechanics, and map.

Though notably Spirits of Amazonia has not yet been added to the PCVR version of the game at the time of writing. Hopefully it will be coming. Hopefully it will be added soon, but according to the developer since PCVR is different from the Quest or PSVR versions it takes more effort to create.

What’s New In Green Hell VR: Spirits Of Amazonia

Green Hell VR: Spirits of Amazonia is a completely new story campaign for Green Hell VR.

So if you’ve already played the first campaign through, or enough to get the hang of it, and want to explore a new map with new game mechanics this is a great time to get back into Green Hell VR.

It’s refreshing starting in a brand new location without already knowing where to go and where everything you’ll need is, and in a lot of ways playing Spirits of Amazonia feels like playing the game for the first time all over again.

Getting ambushed at the start of *Green Hell VR: Spirits of Amazonia*

The Spirits of Amazonia expansion takes place on our main character’s first trip to the Amazon rainforest. You ride a boat down the river into the jungle, and are quickly ambushed by the hostile Waraha tribe.

However your life is saved by a friendly elder of the Mu`agi tribe.

Unfortunately the Mu`agi and other friendly tribes in the area have fallen on hard times, and are losing their war against the Waraha tribe.

This is where you come in. In Spirits of Amazonia you’re encouraged to explore for more than new equipment and to progress to the next area like in the base game.

Instead your primary focus is helping each tribe in various ways like healing their wounded warriors, uncovering their legends, and destroying the hostile Waraha.

Uncovering the legends of the local tribespeople generates a lot of trust and encourages you to explore the new map

SSince there are now friendly villages and NPCs, Green Hell VR feels like an inherently less lonely and oppressive experience than in the first game.

The villages are no longer just ruins, but semi living spaces with an elder you can talk to and torches that are lit up at night. There’s even some supplies that you can take from them.

Of course all of the dangers present in the base campaign are still present, and even increased in the case of the Waraha.

So for the additional challenge and story spoilers in this expansion, it’s recommended that you have played at least a little bit of the original Green Hell VR first.

What’s Next For Green Hell VR

You might have also noticed that what is currently available is only Part 1 of Spirits of Amazonia.

While the second part is already out on the flatscreen, it will still take a while to reach the Virtual Reality version of the game on PSVR or the Oculus Quest platforms.

You’ll be fighting a lot of Waraha warriors in *Spirits of Amazonia*

Another big addition to Green Hell VR that players have been wanting for some time now is the addition of Coop Green Hell VR multiplayer just like the flatscreen game has.

Unfortunately that is still not available, despite this massive update. We can assume that Part 2 of Spirits of Amazonia is in the works for Green Hell VR, and we do know that Green Hell VR Multiplayer is also planned to come as well..

The official Green Hell VR twitter account did tweet on April 13, 2023 that they’re planning on releasing multiplayer for Green Hell VR.

Then a Coop trailer was recently released on the Meta Youtube account that states a release date for Green Hell VR Coop some time in 2024.

Hopefully Green Hell VR Coop Multiplayer will be a reality soon, but in the meantime Spirits of Amazonia is a great way to revisit this fantastic VR Survival Game in the meantime.

Of course I’ll let you know here on Reality Remake when that happens, until then enjoy the Spirits of Amazonia update to Green Hell VR and have fun out there in the Virtual Reality jungle.

The Best Open World VR Games

So you want to experience a fantastic open world in VR. You want huge vistas, interesting landmarks to explore, and all sorts of fantastic things to find in a huge landscape brought to you in Virtual Reality.

Well good thing you found your way here, because you’re about to discover the best Open World VR games in existence. While these VR games have a variety of different mechanics and VR interactions, each is guaranteed to give you a massive place to explore and discover intriguing things.

These are the Best Open World VR Games.

Into The Radius

If you’re looking for a truly weird place to explore then Into The Radius will certainly deliver. In all of the VR games I’ve played none gives as much of an experience of the surreal and scary quite like Into The Radius does.

In this game you’re an explorer doing your best to survive the Pechorsk Zone, which is a huge open world area comprised of 5 areas where the laws of the natural world no longer apply.

Fighting the dark figures in *Into The Radius*

As you hunt for artifacts, scavenge for supplies, and try to complete missions you’ll have to fight your way through the hostile dark figures that stalk the radius, and dodge the deadly anomalies that dot the landscape.

Into The Radius is a great open world game not only for its numerous combat and survival challenges, but for the imagination behind its world.

Pechorsk was once a normal place, but now there are all sorts of insane gravity defying ruins and odd structures scattered about. You really never know what you’ll see and discover next while exploring in this VR open world game.

Into The Radius has made its way on a lot of our lists here at Reality Remake for good reasons. Not only is it a blast to play with tons of horror and action packed gameplay, but it also gives you a mysterious and strange world to explore.

That’s why Into The Radius is among the best open world VR games out there.

Elite Dangerous VR

The *Elite Dangerous* Logo with “VR” slapped on it

So you want an open world to explore in Virtual Reality, well what if we told you that more than one world was available? Well there are many worlds to explore in the depths of space, and that’s why Elite Dangerous VR is such a fantastic choice as an Open World VR game.

There is so much to explore in Elite Dangerous VR that nobody has seen all of it. Even all of the players of this game put together haven’t explored a small percentage of the worlds in store, because Elite Dangerous VR models our actual Universe.

If you want to not only see the incredible sights of space, but also have an effectively infinite number of worlds to discover, then Elite Dangerous VR will satisfy your craving for deep space exploration.

The views of space in *Elite Dangerous VR* are unmatched

There’s also more to do in this VR open world game. There’s combat, space trucking, space piracy, all sorts of things. No matter what you choose to do your chosen profession will take you all over this gorgeous game in the cockpit of your ship.

As far as open worlds go they don’t get much more open than the depths of space, so if you want to explore the cosmos Elite Dangerous VR is a great choice of open world VR game.

Want to know more? Check out our review and setup guide for Elite Dangerous VR.

No Man’s Sky VR

The *No Man’s Sky* Logo for their expansion “Beyond”

Since we’re talking about VR open world space games we’ve got to mention No Man’s Sky VR.

This game has a lot of the same open world strengths that Elite Dangerous VR has, but with very different gameplay mechanics.

The universe is just as infinite in No Man’s Sky VR, but instead of always being confined to your ship you also have much more to do by walking around on the surfaces of planets like harvesting resources, fighting robots, and a ton more. All in immersive Virtual Reality.

Exploring a massive open world planet in *No Man’s Sky VR*

Learn alien languages, upgrade your ship, get a massive freighter, start a space colony, and so much more is available in No Man’s Sky VR. Of course, this game also has more worlds to explore than you can possibly imagine.

Despite getting a lot of bad press at its release, No Man’s Sky has delivered on so much since then, including this VR port, though on PCVR it leaves some to be desired. It’s easy to walk outside of your body, and the VR controls are a little janky at times.

So while not as smooth of a VR open world sci fi experience as Elite Dangerous VR, No Man’s Sky VR brings a ton of different gameplay options that Elite Dangerous’ purely spaceship and space rover based experience just can’t deliver on.

So while it’s not the best VR port around and can run pretty choppily, No Man’s Sky VR is still a fantastic open world VR game, especially on the PSVR2, where it runs much more smoothly.

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners Logo

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners is another fantastic example of a VR open world game done well.

In this game you are the Tourist, an infamous survivor of the zombie apocalypse in the universe of The Walking Dead and you’ve recently arrived in the flooded city of New Orleans.

This game has an interesting story with compelling characters that centers around your quest to find The Reserve, a bunker which is rumored to contain tons of weapons and supplies that everyone in the city wants.

A small horde of zombies in *The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners*

Your mission to find The Reserve will take you all over the ruined and zombie filled streets of The Walking Dead’s New Orleans. You’ll need to scavenge, craft, and fight through not only zombies but also the human factions that all want a piece of The Reserve, and you.

The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners is a fantastic game not only for its story, missions, and events, but also the world that you enter every time you go out into the city.

There are all sorts of ruins to explore and sights to see in the zombie filled streets of New Orleans. The world is massive, though it is cut up into separate maps with tons of nooks and crannies to explore and things to find.

If you want a zombie themed open world VR game then there is no better one to scratch that itch than The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners. It’s also available on the Meta/Oculus Quest as well as PCVR.

Green Hell VR

Both on PCVR and the Meta Quest platforms Green Hell VR is a fantastic game that lets you explore the Amazon rainforest in all of its green and dangerous glory.

From hunting animals to discovering which plants will make you sick or nourish you, Green Hell VR combines an intricate crafting, survival, and building system with a huge rainforest to explore.

You’ll even discover that you’re not quite alone in the green hell, there are some local peoples that aren’t too fond of you interloping in their territory.

Being attacked by a Jaguar in *Green Hell VR*

Green Hell VR is a fantastic VR survival game that constantly forces you to deal with the very real perils of your environment from leeches in the water to pumas stalking you between the trees.

There are very few games that combine survival elements with the thrill of exploration and discovery in a natural space quite like Green Hell does, and even fewer that do so in Virtual Reality.

Green Hell VR is a great open world VR game, and also a great story for you to discover. Why are you trapped in the rainforest? Why can’t you leave?

Hanging out and cooking food in *Green Hell VR*

If you want to discover the rainforest in all its dangerous beauty and master it then there’s no better VR open world game than Green Hell VR.

The Forest VR

While we’re on the topic of VR open world games that give you a big natural environment to explore, then there’s no way we won’t mention The Forest VR.

A PCVR port of the hit game The Forest, The Forest VR is essentially the same game but with a VR view and controls. While it’s not the smoothest VR port in terms of performance, quality, or VR interactions, it is still a great open world VR game to enjoy.

In this game you are a passenger on a crashed plane that must survive in a dangerous forest inhabited with cannibal tribes that only grow more aggressive as time passes.

Meanwhile you’re looking for your kidnapped son, and try to discover what exactly is happening in the remote stretch of wilderness you find yourself in.

I’m not going to sugar coat this though, The Forest VR has a lot of jankiness to it.

From the third person animations to the annoyances of trying to crouch without being teleported into the air, and the input lag that can give you a headache or just make the game frustrating to play.

Still, The Forest is such fun as a Virtual Reality open world game if you can get over those things. It gives you a huge world to explore filled with dangerous cannibals, vistas and caves to explore.

There is a lot of VR game for you to have fun with if you’re able to, and exploring the forest and its mysteries while you gather resources and uncover mysteries is too much fun to not include it on this list.

Gorilla Tag

If you’re into VR games then you’ve probably heard of Gorilla Tag. So we won’t talk too much about it here, but you might not have realized that Gorilla Tag is basically an open world game as well.

Each area in Gorilla Tag is connected, and whether you’re playing it on PCVR or the Oculus Quest it is completely free. Your first time exploring each area with this game’s fantastic movement system is still a ton of fun, because each of the levels is connected.

A fantastic piece of *Gorilla Tag’s* open world

There are a lot of nooks and crannies and things to discover and explore in Gorilla Tag, from a sunny beach to floating platforms high up in the sky.

So if you want to discover what is so special about Gorilla Tag’s VR oriented movement while also exploring an interesting world, then give it a shot. It’s free, and surprisingly satisfying as a VR open world to explore.

Ghosts of Tabor

If you want player vs player shooting action while you scavenge and explore a world ravaged island, then Ghosts of Tabor is a game that delivers just that. It is a fantastic VR shooting game and a fantastic VR open world game.

We’ve called it a VR Escape From Tarkov game before, and if you’ve heard of Tarkov then you know exactly what that means.

In Ghosts of Tabor you enter the world from your secret bunker by starting a raid, and in that raid you have a certain amount of time, at least 30 minutes, to find an extraction point and exit.

A massive building to explore in *Ghosts Of Tabor*

While you look for one you explore the map and try to find loot to take out with you and either sell for money to buy more equipment, or store in your bunker for later use.

Meanwhile other players might be your friend or foe out in Tabor, and the local FENIX rebels will certainly be unhappy to see you.

Oh, and just like in Escape From Tarkov if you die you lose everything you have on you. So staying alive is always your number one priority.

Fighting another player in *Ghosts Of Tabor*

So if you want an open world to explore while combined with fantastic player versus player shooting and the extraction shooter mechanics pioneered by Escape From Tarkov, then give Ghosts of Tabor a look.

For such an action focused game it also gives you a ton of explore and discover, making it a great open world VR game as well.

If you want to know more then check out our article on Ghosts of Tabor.

Stormland

Stormland is a VR game so old that you might not have heard of it. This was an early Oculus title from the days when standalone VR headsets like the Meta Quest weren’t even available yet.

So Stormland is PCVR exclusive, but wow is it a hidden gem.

In this game you’re a robot with human consciousness on an alien world, and it takes a lot of inspiration from flatscreen open world games.

You explore around finding camps of enemies and clearing them to make the world a little bit safer, and there’s a shooting combat system that by today’s standards is a little unsophisticated. Oh, and the game is awfully short at about five to six hours.

Though where Stormland really shines is when it lets you loose to explore its open world. I’ve never had such a good time flying around in a VR game than I did when coasting through the alien world of Stormland.

The towering columns packed with vegetation and science fiction structures scattered around the place make Stormland a very pleasing game to look at and a great VR open world game to explore.

Despite how short of an experience it is compared to more modern VR open world titles, and a somewhat lackluster combat system, Stormland is a ton of fun to explore at least once if you don’t mind paying the price for it.

Grimlord

Remember Dark Souls? Or maybe Elden Ring. You’ve probably heard of at least one of them and are familiar with the concept of a “souls-like”.

These games are very well known for their excellent melee combat systems as well as their harsh punishments for repeated failure. Well Grimlord takes both of those things, and puts them into a fantastic open world just like any of the flatscreen soulslike games.

The biggest difference is, of course, the addition of VR controls and a VR view.

Instead of hitting a button to attack in a set pattern, depending on your weapon, you’re now swinging your weapon any way that you want with your actual arm!

If a VR fighting game that includes a massive open world and soulslike progression sounds interesting in the slightest then you should really check out Grimlord, it’s a ton of fun.

Skyrim VR (With Mods)

It’s no secret that Skyrim VR was not a very good VR port. From the poor optimization to the lack of very basic VR interactions, it was considered a flop and a cash grab by its publisher, Bethesda Softworks.

Luckily as with all Bethesda games, Skyrim VR has had a lot of work put into it independently by the modding community.

If you want to do fairly basic VR things like grab stuff, have a physical body in the world, or enjoy melee combat that amounts to more than just flicking your wrist near an enemy, Skyrim VR with mods will give you all of that in the beautiful and immersive open world of Skyrim.

Now you can experience Skyrim VR like you should have been able to from the start. While there are still some performance issues on certain graphics cards, Skyrim VR with mods really delivers on a VR Elder Scrolls experience.

Now you can explore Skyrim’s vast open world with truly immersive VR controls, and wow is it a ton of fun. If you’ve always wanted to explore Skyrim in VR, but the reputation of the VR port kept you away, it’s time to install mods and give it a go.

If you want the easiest way to install a large suite of Skyrim VR mods without having to worry about cross compatability issues, then check out our guide on the easiest way to install Skyrim VR mods so that you can enjoy this VR open world.

Minecraft VR

To cap off this list of the Best Open World VR Games, none needs as little introduction as Minecraft VR.

We don’t need to tell you anything about this game and what it entails, just that it’s possible to enjoy it in Virtual Reality and experience the most open of open worlds.

The satisfaction of creating a fantastic building is better than ever in Virtual Reality, and if you want a limitless open world to explore in VR then Minecraft VR will always deliver.

Well that’s it for our list of the best VR Open World games. If you want a big world to explore then you’ll certainly have found something on this list that you’ll enjoy. I’ve personally played every single one and found something to enjoy in exploring each of them, and you certainly will too. Have fun!

Where to go to get the *Green Hell VR* grappling hook

Start by going north out of the ruined village, and then go left after the path forks. You can see the direction you want to go to on the map here. As long as you keep heading towards the top of the map you’ll eventually come across the grappling hook, it will be in a large camp at the very end of this path. You’ll know you’re headed in the right direction when you see the doorway surrounded by paintings and handprints.

If you see this you’re headed in the right direction

That’s all we’ll say here without spoiling anything. If you want to go and get the grappling hook without any spoilers on what happens on the way there, then that’s the direction you need to head in. Otherwise keep reading to learn how to overcome all of the obstacles that you will run into on the way to the grappling hook.

Obstacles - Green Hell VR Grappling Hook

The biggest obstacle on your way to the grappling hook in Green Hell VR will be predators, Pumas most likely. While the animals in your starting location with the ruined village will run away from you, the big cats will run towards you and attack.

This is where your weapon will save your life, and unless you’re really lucky you’ll probably have to heal up some of the wounds the predator will give you. If they take you out then you’ll have to start the journey all over again. While there’s no guarantee you’ll run into any hostile animals, it’s fairly likely. Stay alert.

Assuming you make it up the path in one piece, eventually Mia will call you and you talk to her over the Walkie Talkie for a while.

She’ll call you a few times as you make your way to the grappling hook, and throughout the rest of the game. Get used to it, or just ignore her, it’s up to you. If it’s your first time playing Green Hell VR it’s a good idea to talk to Mia to try and figure out what is going on. The story of Green Hell VR is very good and worth experiencing.

Shortly after she calls you you will find a road, and after following that road you’ll see a jeep crashed into a river.

The jeep has a lot of great things you can find around it. Items from civilization outside of the jungle are rare in Green Hell VR, so take whatever you can. The one thing that you definitely can’t continue without is right next to the jeep, a big red jerrycan of fuel. You have to take it to reach the grappling hook.

Keep going down the road past the jeep, and as always consult your map if you get turned around. If you don’t have to stop to get food or supplies you can go very fast and make it before the sun goes down. Eventually you’ll find an elevator. Another sign of civilization!

The old elevator in the jungles of *Green Hell VR*

It’s pretty old, but the only problem with it is that the generator has no fuel, and it’s a long way down. Luckily you got that fuel can from the jeep, so open the cap on the top of the generator and pour some fuel in. Turn it on and head down the elevator.

The Hidden Mining Camp - Green Hell VR Grappling Hook

At the bottom of the elevator is what turns out to be an illegal hidden mine in the jungle. You’ll see a lot of equipment and old stuff lying around.

Keep walking until you see a path leading uphill to some huts. At the top there will be a stone firepit with a hut on either side, go into the hut on the right and sitting on a bench there is the grappling hook!

Take it and it will go into your inventory automatically. Congratulations! You’ve found the grappling hook in Green Hell VR.

Of course you’ll have to make your way back to the abandoned village you started at before you can keep going to Lamda 2. So if it’s late in the day you might want to sleep at the mining camp before heading back. There’s also some more supplies, and a lot of story background to find there as well, so be sure to explore.

Anyway, that’s how to find the grappling hook in Green Hell VR. Enjoy the rest of the game and have fun! Oh, and if you ever need some help surviving in the amazon, be sure to check out this article with tips and tricks for Green Hell VR.

The Green Hell VR Complete Weapon List and How to Craft Them - Meta Quest 2

Green Hell VR takes place in the extremely hostile Jungles of the Amazon. All sorts of deadly enemies lurk within the bushes, trees, and waters of the Green Hell. A lot of those enemies are faster than you, so that means no running from them, just fighting. If you’re going to fight beasts that are way bigger than you are then you’ll need some weapons. So here’s the complete list of all of them, and how to get them.

Green Hell VR takes place in the extremely hostile Jungles of the Amazon. All sorts of deadly enemies lurk within the bushes, trees, and waters of the Green Hell. A lot of those enemies are faster than you, so that means no running from them, just fighting. If you’re going to fight beasts that are way bigger than you are then you’ll need some weapons. So here’s the complete list of all of them, and how to get them.

Spears

Ah, spears, the ultimate survivor’s weapon. It can do a lot of damage while keeping you a safe distance away from whatever you want to do damage to. Great for smashing spiders, scorpions, and rattlesnakes. Used properly a spear can stop a Puma in its tracks… at least for a moment. You may not think much of spears outside of the jungle, but in the jungle it is a hard weapon to beat.

There are a whopping five types of spears in Green Hell VR, and all of them start with a very simple craft. A long stick of wood or bamboo, and a sharp piece of stone. You can get a sharp piece of stone by bashing two rocks together. You can sharpen a length of wood or bamboo by holding the sharp stone and the wood while holding both triggers, and then running the sharp stone over the highlighted area. This goes for anything sharp enough, a machete will also do in a pinch.

Unless you’re really desperate you probably won’t end up using a bamboo spear. It’s a little shorter than other spears, does hardly any damage, and most importantly you can’t put a spear tip on it. While with a wooden spear you can add a spear tip to make it really strong.

Wrapping a rope around the stone you used to carve the spear gives you a spear tip that you can add to the spear by holding it and the spear while holding both triggers. Just mashing the spear tip on to the spear will create a strong stone spear. You can’t go wrong with a stone spear. It is durable and does good damage.

You can do the exact same process with a rope wrapped piece of bone (aka a bone knife, more on that in the knives section) or a piece of obsidian. Obsidian is pretty rare, and so makes the best spears. Really sharp and really durable, go for obsidian if you have some.

The last, longest and strongest type of spear cannot be made by your hands. Instead you can only get it by defeating a Waraha warrior who is wielding it. The local tribespeople have all of the best equipment.

Knives

Ah, knives. You may find them less useful because you need to get in really close in order to use them. This also invites danger to get close to you. Knives may not be extremely useful against a Jaguar or a Caiman, who will use the opportunity to bite you in half before you can get a few good shanks off. Against people they are actually arguably the best weapons if you know how to use them.

A spear require some pause in between blows because you need to pull it back again and put some force into the next stab. With a knife you can easily stab many times quickly. Tribal warriors, unlike large predatory animals, are no more dangerous when they are right in front of you than when they are at a spears length away. So the ability to do more damage more quickly from up close is great against them.

There are four knives in the game. They are essentially the piece that you make before you add them to a wooden spear to make a better spear. A piece of broken bone wrapped with rope, a piece of sharp stone wrapped with rope, or a piece of obsidian wrapped with rope.

Just like with the spears you will need to defeat Waraha tribal warriors in order to get the best knife, the custom obsidian tipped knife of the tribe. This knife is the most durable and does the most damage. Otherwise you can’t go wrong with a bone knife or self made obsidian knife.

Bows and Arrows

Ah, bows. Really the only truly long ranged option in Green Hell VR. They are great if you are too slow or squeamish to do well in an up close battle. Though regardless they are essentially useless against fast enemies like the Puma or Jaguar, who will close the distance to you very quickly. They are also very strong against the Caiman. Three arrows into a Caiman’s skull will kill it as they ponder over toward you. A bow is essential to fight a Caimain, without one you will almost definitely become lunch.

Bows are also the best weapons for hunting. Otherwise with either spear or knife the only reliable way to catch most prey is to corner them. With a bow you simply have to get a good headshot off before your prey notices you and runs away.

There are two types of bows in Green Hell VR. The first is the one you make yourself. Make a wooden spear with no spear tip, and then instead of adding the spear tip, get a rope to act as your bow string. Then hold the spear in one hand and the rope in the other. Then hold down both triggers. You’ll have to wrap the rope around either end of the wooden spear, and boom, you’ve got a bow.

As for the second type of bow, you guessed it, it can only be obtained from tribal warriors. Kill one that has a bow, and they will drop their bow. There’s not too much of a difference between the two bows, but the tribal bow looks more professional and sleek.

Arrows are easier to make, but the ingredients for them are more rare. First you need a small stick, which you can make by hitting a big stick with an axe or rock until it breaks into smaller sticks. The rare thing you need is a bird feather. One bird feather makes one arrow, and they can be hard to come across.

Sometimes you’ll find feathers laying in the forest near bird nests or trees. Otherwise you can find one of the birds out in the wild and kill it, but you’ll have a lot of trouble spearing or stabbing one. If you need more arrows your best bet is probably shooting one of the birds. Hope you’re a good shot. Luckily if you miss arrows are retrievable in Green Hell VR. So just make sure you note where your missed shots land.

To make an arrow just hold the stick in one hand and the feather in the other. Hold down both triggers and mash the feather into the bottom of the stick. Then boom, arrow.

Axes and Machetes

The axe is the most basic tool in Green Hell VR. When you are first thrust into the jungle it is the first thing the game teaches you how to make. Just shove a stone from the ground into a stick, also found on the ground. The axe can be used to chop down trees and do many other things. However as a weapon it is not the finest. Like knives, axes have the drawback of needing you to be very close in order to deal any damage. Unlike knives axes do terrible damage, and don’t give you the ability to strike quickly like a knife.

Axes are best left as a tool instead of a weapon, keep a spear, knife, or bow on hand instead. Though you should know that you can make an axe stronger by wrapping a rope around it. This means you can chop more trees with it before it falls apart.

As for machetes they fall into the same category as axes. Modern tools are great tools that take a long time to fall apart, but still aren’t the best for use as weaponry. You’re better off with a piece of bone wrapped with vines than the best machete fresh off of the assembly line. While an unrusted machete is decent in a fight, there are much better and less rare options available.

Well there you have it, all of the weapons in Green Hell VR. Thanks for reading. Green Hell VR is a fantastic example of a Survival Game in Virtual Reality. I heartily recommend it for survival game or VR buffs. It can be purchased for 29.99$ on the Oculus Store. Green Hell VR will also be coming to Steam for PCVR in the near future. Happy hunting, and good luck in the jungle.
