The game will contain three stories at launch and feature "concepts" created by Farpoint and The Division writer Rob Yescomb and Forty Acres screenwriter Dwayne Alexander Smith. Post-launch DLC or additional stories have not been announced. The three stories within the game include:

• Character Building - A video game director discovers that workplace cruelty is a dangerous game.

• Terror Firma - After an environmental apocalypse, one survivor must face mysterious phantoms as he searches the city ruins for a glimmer of Hope.

The Twilight Zone VR is being developed by Pocket Money Games, which previously brought Superhot to VR and quickly became one of the best Quest 2 games. A PlayStation VR version had been previously announced, but will not be launching alongside the Meta Quest 2 version on July 14. The publisher said on Twitter in a reply to the announced release date that the PlayStation VR version is still planned and in the works.
