The survey also comes with a few jokes under the section of choosing owned VR headsets. The usual suspects are there with Oculus Quest 2 , PlayStation VR, and SteamVR headsets, but there a quite a few fake ones mixed in. A few of the obvious fakes include the "PlayStation Portal S," "Xbox Moda," and the Famicom 3D. While the last one was an actual product, it is a 3D glasses accessory for the Nintendo Entertainment System that was only sold in Japan.
Among Us VR was initially announced last year, and is currently scheduled to launch for Meta Quest 2 and SteamVR headsets sometime this holiday. A PlayStation VR2 version was also announced, but developer Schell Games did not give a release window and said it will be coming "when the headset is released."
The title is a VR adaptation of the PC, console, and one of the best Android games complete with doing tasks, casual murder, and roundtable discussions accusing those of said murder. The VR version will launch with the Skeld II map, proximity voice chat, Quickchat, achievements, and more.
The Meta Quest 2 offers increased power, resolution, and flexibility over the original virtual headset. It is a complete, all-in-one headset that does not need to be tethered to a PC or smartphone in order to work.
