Description: This is an air Parkour game combined with VR. You need to fly the plane from the first perspective, rush to the end at the fastest speed, and be alert to your opponent’s attack along the way. Of course, you can also attack your opponent. In addition to man-machine racing, you can also race online in the air. Call friends to join the game.
Review: I’m not quite sure what to say about ‘Air Racing VR’. This air-racer style game is Gamepad only and while playable in VR, is not really playable in VR. It’s nauseating, mostly in Chinese and has very little content (plus it looks pretty crappy most of the time). I could look past most of its issues if it was at least playable but it doesn’t even get that right. Playing this takes me back to the days of the first Oculus Rift that didn’t come with motion controllers, so all you had was a gamepad. People didn’t really know how to make a VR game pack then as VR games were more headset support bolted onto a normal game. Sadly for this game, things have come a long way since then which just makes this game look even worse.
