Oculus Rift Game Prices and Comfort Levels
Comfort levels consist of Comfortable, Moderate, and Intense.
The Oculus Rift already comes at what some may consider a steep price of $600, so the price of its games are a big question some may have. And if you're someone who has a history of motion sickness, then that might play a factor in what you can and can't play also. Thankfully, Oculus revealed its launch games at GDC today, and now we know their prices and comfort levels as well.
Oculus Rift games range from prices of $4.99 all the way up to $59.99. Lucky's Tale is bundled with the Rift, and those who preorder the VR headset also get Eve: Valkyrie for free.
The comfort levels consist of Comfortable, Moderate, and Intense. According to Eurogamer, "comfortable" games have fixed camera angles, "moderate" games are mostly in a third-person view with a slow-moving camera, and "intense" games have a fast-moving camera.
Games like Pinball FX 2 VR and Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes enjoy a Comfortable rating, while rock-climbing simulator The Climb is a Moderate experiences. The Intense ratings go to games like Adrift, Elite: Dangerous, and Eve: Valkyrie.
