Steam VR Fest kicks off next week

There’s barely time to breathe between Steam events and sales lately. However, if you have a virtual reality headset and are hankering for some pre-Christmas gaming, you might want to check out the Steam VR Fest next week.

The latest video on the Steam YouTube channel breaks down what you can expect between December 4 and December 11. There’s not a whole lot that needs to be explained, to be honest. It’s a Steam event. It caters to VR games. You know the score.

As for what’s involved, the teaser shows off clips from games like Among Us VR, Star Trek: Bridge Crew, Elite Dangerous, Golf It!, and Tetris Effect: Connected. How you play a virtual reality version of Tetris, I’m not sure. But these are the times we live in.

Steam work makes the dream work

While these Steam events have been pretty short, lasting about a week or a few days, many of us are still recovering from the last one. The Autumn Sale took place at the end of November, and we still have the big Winter event to come.

Can’t complain, of course. I’ve got a laundry list of games on my wishlist that I wouldn’t mind buying at a lower price. If waiting until a Steam sale is the way to do it, then so be it.

Plus, with virtual reality still finding its footing in the market, the VR Fest is a great way those who have a headset to test out their hardware. I would get a virtual reality kit myself, but I can’t justify the cost. Although, with Taskmaster getting its own VR game, maybe it’s time to make the leap.
