A visceral, hand-interactive VR journey through a claustrophobic and oppressive sci-fi world, blending careful exploration with deliberate combat.

What players say
Players call it the best VR game made and a must-play for Half-Life fans, though some find the story shallow and say it has little replay value. People routinely buy a headset just for this one game, and many note it demands a strong PC for the best experience.
