Best 10 Oculus Rift ZOMBIE VR Games You Can Play Right Now
Few days I wrote an article about the BEST 7 Zombie themed games we found available for the Samsung Gear VR.
I’ve been asked about other platforms including the Oculus Rift. If you would like to see a similar article for a different platform please let me know.
Here are the Best 10 Oculus Rift Zombie Games you can download right now!
1. Arizona Sunshine

Arizona Sunshine is developed from the ground up for HTC Vive and Oculus Touch.

2. Dying Light
Want to play Dying Light on your Oculus Rift?
Check out this simple tweak to Dying Light to enable Oculus Rift support. Of course there is no menu option for it, that would be too easy. You will need to tweak a file to do so.
Dying Light Oculus Setup
- Depending on how you installed Dying light. It would be under one of these two locations Browse to either: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\ OR user/my documents/dying light/
- Edit (notepad is fine) the video.scr. If you cannot see the file. Then change windows explorer to view all file types.
- At the end of the file add the following line OculusEnabled(). End of file should look like: AmbientOcclusion(1) MotionBlur(1) AntiAliasing(1) OculusEnabled()
- Save and start your game
Dying Light Oculus Rift Experience/Performance
- Subtitles and on-screen tutorial instructions are close to unreadable. This is largely due to the 1080p DK2
- Black boxes just seem to randomly appear, then disappear.
- Performance was pretty chopping with my setup (GTX 780) I turned OFF Blur, HBAO and DOF to get smooth frame rates.
- As with other first-person type games I’ve played on the Rift. Nausea kicks in quick and hard. Movements that are normal with a mouse/keyboard/monitor combo quickly cause nausea on the Rift. Side stepping seems to hit me the hardest. I lasted only 10 minutes, I was done.
- There is no Oculus camera enabled for motion tracking. Just head tracking with the headset.
- To be fair to the developer Techland. They do not advertise this as being an official VR game so its nice they have something. Just bring your barf bucket.
- As a side note. Seems that PC game pricing is matching consoles in many more cases. PC games were priced around $49.99, console $59.99. This game now costs $59.99 on steam and I don’t even get a box!

WELCOME TO PURGATORY ISLAND…
A prison for the undead and dying. A hell from which you will never escape.
If you’re reading this, you’ve likely found that the nuances of life are slowly leaving you. One breath at a time. One paused heartbeat within your chest.
The Far Watchers own this diseased island and have infected you with their Animus, a machine that holds you together, and one that aims to kill the death inside you! They’ve created this hell to test you, their weapons, and all their other damnable creations. Their cameras both seen and unseen track your every movement throughout this swamped and accursed place, and their flitting shadows move just beyond the edge of observation. They have given you a second life, and it is for you to find out how and why.
