When you put on a VR headset and the physical world melts away, you are transported to a bold, new digital frontier.

It may be terrible, but survival is your only option.

The survival genre taps into our primordial sense of fear, and VR is upping the ante by giving you new ways to relive this nightmare from the safety of your own home. Let's call it preparation for disaster, shall we?

Check out our full list of 11 amazing VR survival games you can play on Meta Quest 2.

Quest 2 VR Survival Games

Cosmodread

This one is for those who love creepy things. Cosmodread by White Door Games is a terrifying roguelike VR survival horror game where you're stranded on a dying autonomous spaceship. As you explore the heartbreaking corridors, you must scavenge for supplies to last long enough to reach the safety of Earth. On your way home, you'll scavenge for supplies, fight terrifying creatures, and explore the ship with a new procedurally generated layout every time you die.

FREEDIVER: Triton Down

I hope the thought of being trapped underwater and slowly drowning doesn't scare you too much, because that's exactly what FREEDIVER: Triton Down. You dive into the depths of a capsizing research ship and are tasked with outmaneuvering a deadly splash of water. Fortunately, you are a world class diver, so you are well equipped to fight for your life at sea. Remain calm and think quickly about this horrifying experience.

Green Hell VR

В Green Hell VR developer Incuvo puts you in the shoes of Jake Higgins, renowned anthropologist, as you get stuck in the depths of the Amazonian rainforest. Using the interactive features of Quest 2, Green Hell VR will force you to craft the tools and weapons you need to build shelter, hunt animals, cook food, and try to figure out how to survive. This is a heartbreaking adventure that is sure to keep your pulse. How long do you think you can last?

Into the Radius

Into the Radius by CM Games started life as an early access PC VR game and has now gone all the way to the Quest Platform for its final form. This single-player open-world survival shooter includes authentic guns to load up and use in your arsenal, as well as little exciting details like an interactive map, the need to take cover, and a mysterious world ripe for exploration.

Project TERMINUS VR

В Project TERMINUS VR From the developer of CVR, you must keep your wits about you as you descend into an unforgiving post-apocalyptic version of Paris that is overrun by dangerous nanobots. Rampant nanobots have taken over and reanimated human corpses, so it's up to you to ration your supplies and find answers as you experience the suffocating terror of the end of the world. And to make things even more fun, Project TERMINUS VR fully playable in co-op, including cross-buy and cross-play between versions of Quest and Rift.

Song in the smoke

Song in the smoke from 17-BIT is a survival experience unlike any other. The unique visual style and attention to detail make you feel like you've stepped into a living, breathing illustration to evoke its powerful story and sense of place. You will have to use your senses to identify the threats around you when you experience true fear and the isolation of being alone in nature.

The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners

One of the world's most iconic properties came to VR with a bang when The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners first released by Skydance Interactive. With some of the best visuals, amazing world building and intuitive gameplay available in VR, this is a gritty and dark adventure that is not for the faint of heart.

PC VR Survival Games Playable on Quest 2 using Air Link

However, the fun doesn't have to stop there. We have four more survival games to recommend, but you will need capable gaming PC to play these gems in VR. Since none of these games are natively available on the Quest platform, you'll need to use a compatible PC VR headset or connect your Quest via Oculus Link with a USB cord or wirelessly with Air Link to try them out for yourself.

If you want more jungle-themed survival, check out The Forest VR. If you like something with a more sci-fi twist, you can't go wrong with The solus project. If you want to mow down zombies with your friends, then be sure to check out SURV1V3. And if survival in the depths of the deep blue ocean is greater than your speed, then Subnautica will satisfy you.
