E3 2018 is coming to a close, and while there are a ton of awesome new PC, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One games to look forward to, perhaps even more interesting are the huge virtual reality (VR) games that were announced at the show.
In case you missed the announcements for PlayStation VR, Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, don’t worry – we’ve rounded up the most exciting VR games from E3 2018.
Anyone of these could make it onto our list for best VR game, so check them out below!

The hugley popular Wolfenstein series is coming to VR in the form of a new game.
Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot takes place around 20 years after Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, and basically involves you playing a resistance fighter who’s a hacker. What that means is that you’ll turn the Nazis’ machines against them – which could lead to some pretty major destruction.
The game is set to be released sometime in 2019, and will be released on multiple VR headsets – though we don’t know exactly which ones just yet.
Gungrave VR

Most of the games on this list are violent and heavy, but if you’re looking for something a little cuter, then Ghost Giant may be the game for you.
Ghost Giant is an adorable puzzle game in which you’ll keep a lonely kid named Louis company on his adventures through the town of Sancourt. The game was developed by Zoink, and involves you lifting furniture, trees, and more to help Louis get through each puzzle.
The game will be released on PSVR, but unfortunately there’s no word just yet on when the new game will launch. We expect that, like many of the other games on this list, it’ll be some time in 2019.
Firewall: Zero Hour

Maybe you’re looking for a first-person shooter? If that’s the case, then Firewall: Zero Hour may well be the game for you. The game was announced a while back, but at E3 2018, we found out that it will be releasing “very soon,” and got a better look at what the game will look like.
In the multiplayer game, you’ll play as one of 12 mercenaries, use a range of different upgradeable weapons, and more. There are a few different roles to play, too – you can attack with the squadron and work to obtain the enemy’s data, or you can defend, ensuring the enemy team doesn’t get their hands on your data.
The game is in development for PlayStation VR, and will be released in 2018 – though we don’t have specific release date just yet.
Tetris Effect

This could be one of the more colorful virtual reality games out there. Astro Bots: Rescue Mission is a platformer in which you’ll play as a robot as you jump and smash your way through each level.
It really looks like it’s a beautifully-developed game, and could be one of the better titles out there for PSVR once it’s released. Astro Bots: Rescue Mission will be released to PSVR in the fall, priced at $40.
E3 is the world’s largest exhibition for the games industry, stuffed full of the latest and greatest games, consoles, and gaming hardware.
