There are a lot of reasons to love this time of year, but one of my favorite is all the gaming showcases happening in June. We got the Summer Game Fest, PlayStation and Xbox showcases, Nintendo Direct, PCGamer Showcase, tons of indie showcases, and now the VR Games Showcase!

What aired was genuinely spectacular and gets me uber-hyped for the rest of the releases this year. Out of all the titles shown, a whopping eight have just made it to my wishlist, and several other game updates caught my eye, as well. The whole showcase is in the YouTube link below, but you will also want to stock up on Meta Quest gift cards while they are on sale for Prime Days this week.

There's nothing quite like getting free money, and these Meta Quest gift cards will get you plenty of credit to buy any of the VR games you see in the showcase.

Watch On

Out of all the announcements, these were my highlights:

  • Breachers Outbreak
  • Skeleton Crew
  • Maestro Attack on Titan DLC
  • Sol Protocol
  • I Am Your Beast
  • Guardians Planetfall
  • H3VR2
  • Payday: Aces High

Payday: Aces High is certainly the highlight of the showcase and the reason it's prominently shown on the front, but all the other titles I mentioned have me MEGA hyped to keep my Meta Quest 3 on throughout the year. Check the timestamps on the video timeline on YouTube to view them, or just watch the whole showcase in the video above!

Aside from gift cards and awesome games, Prime Day (valid now through June 26th) is delivering tons of fantastic Meta Quest 3 and 3S accessories on sale, in addition to a $53 discount on the Meta Quest 3S. That means you get to save a ton of money and get the best VR console experience. Have fun, because I know I will be!
