Top 10 Most Anticipated Virtual Reality Games of 2020 with Half-Life Alyz Kaufen

For the rest of the year, great innovations are expected in the world of Virtual Reality and video games will be the main protagonists.

The field of Virtual Reality does not seem to have been completely installed in the gamer world, but year after year it continues to offer unique experiences that seek to challenge the capabilities of video games and the way to tell stories through them. 2019 presented a great number of options in this field where there is still a huge potential to be exploited and little was seen of what it is capable of. This time, Half-Life Alyz Kaufen got the first place of the most awaited games.

In the same line, 2020 is preparing to receive important titles, several sequels and many stories for the great amount of VR systems in the market, from Oculus Rift and HTC Vive to PlayStation VR and many more. These are the 10 most anticipated Virtual Reality games of 2020:

Half-Life: Alyx – March

Platforms supported by SteamVR

We got the obvious one out of the way. Beyond what the return of Half-Life represents in a new format, which is already huge, one can also anticipate that Half-Life: Alyx will change the landscape of the genre completely. Valve already has some VR titles on its resume, mainly based on its other franchises. Those examples remain among the most entertaining and polished experiences that Virtual Reality and HL: Alyx promises to once again challenge the limits of technology. Many gamers have already purchased their first VR headset just to be able to try out HL: Alyx when it arrives and the industry may be watching the impact it is already making around the world.

Iron Man VR – May 15th

Playstation VR

Although it’s a little late and you miss out on all the excitement that a release with Robert Downey Jr. still in the role would have had, Iron Man VR already promises to be one of the most interesting Playstation VR titles. From the sidewalk across the street, the Batman video game didn’t leave its users very satisfied and was left halfway through, but the development of Iron Man VR gives us much more hope. The Camouflaj studio has been working on the title for some years now in order to provide the best possible experience for all those who want to fulfill their dream of being Iron Man and save the day with their wide variety of outfits.

Pixel Ripped 1995 – Autumn

Platforms supported by SteamVR / PSVR

The story of Ana Ribeiro, the Brazilian responsible for the development of Pixel Ripped 1989 and its sequel, Pixel Ripped 1995, is fascinating. After studying and practicing ABOGACIA/CONTADURIA, she realized that it was not her thing to offer any creative space. He decided to follow his dream of developing video games and finally in 2017 he launched his first creation, a Virtual Reality experience full of nostalgia, good music and innovative mechanics. With that background, we can expect great things from Pixel Ripped 1995, which promises even more nostalgia, but this time with tributes to the 16-bit culture and the video games that marked a different era.

Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond – To be confirmed

Oculus Rift

As with Half-Life, the fact that an iconic franchise enters the realm of Virtual Reality is reason enough to capture the attention of the gamer world. In this case, Medal of Honor, a franchise created in 1999, will launch its first title in 2012 and will do so exclusively in VR. The return of the franchise is a joint effort between Oculus Studios and Respawn Entertainment, one of the most important studios of 2019, which launched Apex Legends and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and placed itself at the top thanks to its variety of content.

Vertigo 2 – To be confirmed

Platforms supported by SteamVR

The first installment of Vertigo used some of the mechanics already imposed on the genre to propose an entertaining, extensive and very immersive experience. The design of the different levels left something to be desired, but the sequel promises to solve those issues with an adventure loaded with more action, more riddles and, of course, more vertigo.

The Walking Dead Onslaught – To be confirmed

Platforms supported by SteamVR / PSVR

With one to go, The Walking Dead franchise will launch two new Virtual Reality games in 2020. The first one, Saints and Sinners, is already available since January 23rd . The second, Onslaught, will come from Survios, the studio responsible for Creed: Rise to Glory, the VR game based on the movie franchise starring Michael B. Jordan. Unlike Saints and Sinners, it offers a new story set in the universe of The Walking Dead with action as the predominant element.

Phantom: Covert Ops – To be confirmed

Oculus Rift/Quest

The field of Virtual Reality is very young and many formulas are repeated until they show good results. That’s why the best titles on the platform are those that manage to innovate with new mechanics. This seems to be the case of Phantom: Covert Ops, which seeks to be the best option in the stealth genre in VR and proposes to carry out missions with a tactical kayak, a very varied weaponry and different ways to overcome the same objective.

Lone Echo II – March

Oculus Rift

Another sequel on the list. The reasoning is simple: if the first part was great, the second part can’t not be up to it. There’s very little room for retreat in the realm of Virtual Reality. Moreover, Lone Echo II is one of the best-seen titles in Oculus and this time around, apart from continuing to explore space and the various mechanics behind the operation of a ship, it promises to get into the time.

Firmament – July

Platforms supported by SteamVR / PSVR

Cyan Wolrds Inc, the legendary studio behind Myst, will attempt to dazzle its audience with Firmament, an adventure of exploration that will travel to different worlds. In the company of a small robot assistant, who will be the centre of the game’s mechanics, huge stages will open up to reveal mysteries as the projection of a mentor guides us on our way.

Population: One – To be confirmed

Platforms supported by SteamVR / Oculus Quest

Although the battle royale terrain does not seem to admit any other exponent, Population One plans to translate the concept into Virtual Reality in the most ambitious way possible. Its development is long overdue and it is expected to make its mark both in VR games and in the market-leading Battle Royale.
