Half-Life: Alyx

from £46 / Oculus, Vive, Valve Index

Announcing as not only a ‘midquel’ but a VR exclusive got some diehards riled up… but in classic Valve fashion, the end result is utterly brilliant. succeeds because its universe just happens to be a perfect fit for the format. It’s also larger and much more robust than most VR games, at a meaty 12-15 hours. And though it unfolds at a different kind of cadence to past games, it feels like a fully fledged solo campaign and a key part of the franchise narrative.
