What awaits you in Blacktop Hoops
Blacktop Hoops is a VR basketball game that has reached over one million players, according to developer studio Vinci Games. The game features a campaign with 12 unique streetball legends on four iconic streetball courts in Oakland, Los Angeles, New York and Athens. At the end of the journey to the GOAT ("Greatest of All Time"), players can look forward to a final showdown against dunk world champion Jordan Kilganon.
Multiplayer fans will also get their money's worth: there are 1vs1, 2vs2, 3vs3 or 4vs4 matches as well as skill-based matchmaking with 9 ranks and 21 divisions. Eight training modes and training battles against AI bots are also available. A new avatar system offers more than 600 customizations and cosmetic items.
Blacktop Hoops was first released in 2022 in the App Lab and on Steam in Early Access. With almost 17,000 ratings in the App Lab, it was one of the most successful VR games ever for a long time. The full version for Meta Quest, Pico and SteamVR has been available since. May 2024 at a price of $30 and supports cross-play between the platforms.
What awaits you in Swarm 2
In Swarm 2, you take on the role of Marv, the last survivor of the Grapple commando. With your trusty pistol and grappling hook, you fight the swarm in style and maneuver like Spider-Man through the procedurally generated levels of the game environment.
With each mission, you become stronger, uncover more of the story and can permanently improve your skills with the help of dozens of perks. Each encounter with the swarm is a unique experience, with tactics and strategies adapting to your growing abilities.
According to the developers at Greensky Games, you don't have to worry about motion sickness despite the fast-paced gameplay. A refined "Smooth Grappling System" transforms you into a dynamic pendulum that helps you build momentum.
Swarm 2 has been available for PC VR via Steam since July 2024 at a price of just under $25. There you can play it with all common PC VR headsets such as HTC Vive, Valve Index, Pimax Crystal or Quest 3 via Link.
