Abstract
Virtual reality game or VR games is a video game played on Virtual Reality (VR) hardware. most VR games are based on player immersion, typically through head-mounted display unit or headset with stereoscopic displays and one or more controllers. the video game industry made early attempts at VR in the 1980s, most notably with mattel's power glove and nintendo's virtual boy. with the introduction of the first consumer-ready VR product, the oculus rift, in 2013, VR games soon followed, including existing games adapted for the VR hardware, and new games designed directly for VR. nearly all VR games, as generally defined, require the use of a VR headset that provides stereoscopic displays that simulate three-dimensional reality and create immersion for the player. most headsets include some means of positional tracking as to provide head-tracking some headsets further provide eye tracking. a player may be moved automatically by the game as necessary; a player may need to look at a target location and indicate through a control scheme their desire to move their character to that spot, or the player may use more traditional controls such as an analog stick or keyboard presses to move their characters.
