On the subject of mixed reality: still in open beta, this 4v4 arena-scale shooter requires space and some Quest-owning buddies. It also has a mixed reality passthrough mode! Spend money on cosmetics, or don’t: it’s a massive slice of fun any which way. Refine your loadout and jump into the action as you scramble for weapons and send a volley of hellfire at your enemies, all the while Matrix dodging through this innovative bullet hell meets futuristic dueling game. Once a paid game, this room-scale shooter is now free-to-play, letting you take on friends, family and foes in head-to-head 1v1 dueling. Online multiplayer lets you go head-to-head for a pretty convincing game of b-ball thanks to the game’s physics-based and full-body kinematics. Gym Class – Basketball is the solution if you’re looking to shoot some hoops and dunk like you probably can’t on a physical court. There is more than just battle royale though: you can play in the sandbox for custom maps and rules, team deathmatch with customizable loadouts, a 12v12 war mode, and more. It’s still a paid game on Steam though, which makes sense considering developers BixBox VR were acquired by Meta. The free-to-play game does feature microtransactions, but only for cosmetics, which is nice. Population: One is basically VR’s most successful battle royale, letting you climb, fly, shoot, and team-up with whoever dares.
