One reason for the uptick is the increased visual fidelity of the latest games. The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners*, for instance, recommends 16GB RAM and an Intel® Core™ i7-8700K processor. And while players could once get by with 4-8GB of RAM and a mid-level CPU for many titles, games on the horizon demand more. Meanwhile, DiRT Rally 2.0* takes up 91.63 GB of storage space.

Installing the fantasy VR game Asgard’s Wrath* requires 121 GB of free storage space due to the game’s texture detail. Other VR games aren’t far behind, with requirements rising for storage, memory, and processing.

Higher system requirements naturally come along with these more advanced games. Titles like Insomniac Games' Stormland* and Lo-Fi*, the spiritual successor to the VR launch title Technolust* - tentatively scheduled for release in 2020 - have larger game worlds with open-world gameplay, while Ready at Dawn’s Lone Echo 2*, also slated for a 2020 release, features larger, more complex environments than the original. Options range from small, casual games ( Angry Birds VR: Isle of Pigs*) to moderately demanding games ( Superhot VR*, Beat Saber*), depending on the headset’s individual capabilities.īecause inside-out headsets rely on hardware inside your PC, they allow you to play more ambitious games. With all-in-one headsets, the types of games that can be played are limited by the device’s built-in hardware. Just as the hardware is evolving, VR games are becoming more ambitious.

A high-end headset will require a similarly high-end PC to power it.īigger Games and Steeper Hardware Requirements Pimax* headsets make similar advancements in resolution and refresh rate.Īs the specs for headsets increase, so do the hardware requirements. HP Reverb*, an inside-out headset, has a 2160 x 2160 per eye resolution for improved visual sharpness at 90 Hz. Vive Pro* has an AMOLED screen for richer colors and contrasts. The Valve Index* headset has a 120-144 Hz refresh rate and an expanded resolution of 1440 x 1600 per eye for better-looking games with lower latency (or lag) between the game’s reaction to your inputs and movements. Current generation headset specs have surpassed those of a first generation Oculus Rift CV1*, which had a 1080 x 1200 per eye resolution at 90 Hz.
They typically have around a 90 Hz refresh rate and moderately high resolution screens and require a computer to function.
They rely on mobile hardware and are an evolution of old mobile VR headsets - think Google Cardboard* - that required a smartphone.
