Song in the Smoke is a survival adventure game that will throw players into a prehistoric world full of strange beasts. Playing this one, you'll be doing all the usual crafting, foraging and fighting for survival, only in VR.
But the developers say it's much more than that:
"With Song in the Smoke, we dove even deeper into unknown territory: a VR survival adventure, with all new rules, in a completely new medium. Song in the Smoke is unlike anything we’ve done before, and it’s our most ambitious title yet. The experience is so completely immersive and engaging, the forest is alive all around you in the extra dimension provided by VR. We’re thrilled to be offering an intense adventure that couldn’t be captured in any other way."
Lone Echo II

Lone Echo II is returning to Oculus Rift and will be available to play on Quest Ii with Oculus Link or Air Link if you have a gaming PC.

Area Man Lives
- Game type: VR mystery
- Publisher: Numinous Games
- See the official site
Area Man Lives is a VR game with a very hands-on vibe. You'll be poking and prodding the world in all manner of ways and interacting with it using your voice too.
"AREA MAN LIVES is a quirky VR game that mixes a comic book world with an over-the-top radio drama. Using your own voice to talk to characters and your high-tech monkey gloves interact with the world, you begin to piece together what’s happening in this decidedly odd town on the Oregon coast. As you live inside a classic radio drama, talk to its invisible characters and interact with the environments the story paints in your mind, you’ll start to notice how your actions inside the station impact your listening audience."
Assassin's Creed and Splinter Cell
Ubisoft has already dabbled in a few VR games in recent times, with Star Trek Bridge Crew being another solid favourite of ours. Now the company is planning on bringing two of its biggest franchises to VR as well. Both Assassin's Creed and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell are getting the VR treatment at some point soon.
