We’ve had games before, but they’ve never managed to nail the vibe of the show quite as well as this does. It can feel a bit hand-holdy at times, with the solution to each puzzle being given to you far too soon, but remarkably, this is nonetheless the first Doctor Who game to actually feel like Doctor Who. It features everything a Who fan would love – you can pilot the TARDIS, wave the sonic screwdriver around, and face off against famous enemies like the Daleks and the Weeping Angels. It makes sense, as the new season is starting just a week later on New Year’s Day, but its absence on Christmas Day last year was very sorely felt.įortunately, this year we’ve got Doctor Who: The Edge of Time, a full, official VR adventure featuring Jodie Whitaker’s 13 th Doctor. It’s a shame we’re not getting a Doctor Who Christmas special again this year. If you’ve got an Oculus Quest, you’ll need a Link cable to play it, and for those on non-Oculus headsets, you’ll need to make use of third-party tools like Revive to play.ĭoctor Who: The Edge of Time – PS VR, PC VR, Oculus Quest (Index and Windows Mixed Reality support coming January 2020)ĭoctor Who: The Edge of Time Maze Theory/Playstack/BBC Robo Recall is currently an Oculus PC VR exclusive. You can play it like a straight shooter, or get more creative by catching bullets out of the air, throwing enemies at each other, modifying your weapons (like turning thrown guns into grenades) for a personal flair, or simply rip an arm off a robot and beat their friend to pieces with it. Killing robots is always satisfying, but being able to physically grab them and tear their limbs off in VR is a whole other level of cathartic. Robo Recall is often cited as one of VR’s go-to games, and with good reason. All the enemies are robots, though, and there is nothing particularly extreme here.

Like Superhot, Robo Recall does feature guns, shooting and violence.
