Newly released Meta Quest games
Batman Arkham Shadow
Why you can trust Android Central
The first made-for-VR Batman Arkham Shadow game takes place between Arkham Origins and Arkham Asylum. It features an impressive combat system that lets you channel Batman in fun and exciting ways, juggling multiple enemies at a time and working up a real sweat. It's a 10+ hour-long adventure with a Metroidvania-like structure, plenty of gadgets, and voice actors you know and love.
This one is made by the same Oculus Studios developer behind Iron Man VR, not the original Arkham developers, but that doesn't mean it's less worth playing. In fact, many reviews are calling it game of the year across the board, and that includes big hitters on traditional consoles and PCs.

Just Dance VR
The mythical series is finally in VR! Just Dance VR is Ubisoft's latest VR game and looks to perfectly translate the series' epic dance moves into a medium that can finally understand your body's movements. This one adds 360-degree environments and a new two-hand scoring method thanks to the movement fidelity of the Quest.
You'll be able to play with up to six people and dance to over 25 songs from all the most popular artists of today. There's even a new social hub called Dancity where you can hang out with up to 18 players. Customizing your avatar now has a new meaning and you can collect all kinds of toys, outfits, badges, emotes, and more to impress your new virtual friends.

Maestro
There are rhythm games, and then there's Maestro. The eponymous musical conductor simulator puts you in the shoes of an orchestra maestro who must successfully conduct classic songs on exciting and thrilling stages.
From Tchaikovsky to Mozart, you'll be going through the most epic classic songs of all time with just your hands and sense of rhythm. This is one of those games that only makes sense in VR, and you'll be quickly singing its praises from the moment you begin.

Arizona Sunshine Remake
The original Arizona Sunshine was a triumph for VR gamers who loved shooting zombies, and last year's sequel added more gore, weapons, and even more cinematic gameplay and modern VR enhancements to the experience.
That's why the full remake of the original Arizona Sunshine is so exciting! This one overhauls every core mechanic, redesigns levels, and brings the 2016 game into 2024 with all the big changes we've seen in the VR space since then. Plus, owners of the original game can upgrade for just $10.

Band Space
Get the whole band together and play through songs as one of four instruments in Band Space, a new breed of rhythm game made for VR. Choose from drums, guitar, keyboard, or bass and rock it out alongside friends to make the perfect concert. The trick here is that you're playing alongside other people to make music, not just by yourself or against other players, giving it a unique social vibe most rhythm games lack.

Vendetta Forever
Hack, slash, shoot, and dodge in what we're dubbing as the spiritual successor to SUPERHOT VR. Vendetta Forever puts players in a myriad of situations with a unique locomotion system that has you warping between enemy weapons instead of sitting still and waiting for them to come to you. Dispatch enemies, steal their weapons, and finish each level in record time to top the charts and get the best score.
