Types of Multiplayer VR Games

There are a few different types of multiplayer VR games we feature below in our guide.

Player vs Player

Also known as 1v1, this is where you compete against one other person. Since there aren’t many houses with two VR headsets, the games below are for you to compete against a friend or stranger online.

Co-op

In co-op games, you commonly play with 1, 2 or 3 other players. Instead of competing against each other, co-op games have you working together.

Team Multiplayer

Team multiplayer games put you on a team to compete against another team. Common multiplayer games includes first person shooters and sports games. You work together with other players to compete against the other team.

Massive Multiplayer

Massive multiplayer games are similar to regular multiplayer in that you often compete against others, individually or on a team. The massive part refers to a community feature where you can join games, chats, and lobbies with hundreds or thousands of other players.

Asymmetrical Multiplayer

Asymmetrical VR games are local multiplayer where you play with friends in the same room at the same time. Asymmetric games have one play in the VR headset and one or more players using a phone, PC, or console in the house. These multiplayer games only require one VR headset, which is the setup for most people.

All of the multiplayer VR game types listed above can be local multiplayer or online multiplayer (except for asymmetrical which is always local). Local games take place locally in your house and multiplayer games online over your internet connection.

Meta Quest Multiplayer Games

The Meta Quest is a unique VR headset because it is Android-based. Any game where we have listed the Quest as an option or put All means you can play it on the Quest.

This means swinging your arms and pushing off of the floor or other objects to propel yourself forward.

It is free to play, which is awesome since servers aren’t cheap. The game also has cross play with the Steam VR version, which mans that you’ll have plenty of enemies to go up against.

Two game modes are included in Gorilla Tag so far. In tag mode, you have to catch and tag other gorillas while avoiding them when you aren’t “it”. In infection mode, you become infected when you are tagged and need to survive as long as possible.

Ironlights

Platform: All
