August is relatively quiet for new VR games right now, but we've rounded up a few highlights.Summer is usually slow for new VR games, though July still had a few highlights. This month saw us try Table Troopers, Clone Drone, Prison Boss Prohibition, Elsewhere Electric, The Pirate, and Jungle Man. Our thoughts on V-Racer Hoverbike and Sky Runner: Drone Hero are also coming soon. Elsewhere, we tested the latest bHaptics TactSuits, the Yaw 3 motion simulator, and the StrikerVR Mavrik haptic gun.We'll refresh this list as more games get announced or delayed, and our upcoming VR games list is also regularly updated. While Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate on Pico and Elemental Towers both currently list August release dates, repeat delays mean we've not included them for now. This rule will apply for other games that have had multiple delays going forward, too.For now, here are this August's highlights for new VR games on Quest, PC VR, and PlayStation VR2.Hidden Memories of the Gardens Between - August 7 (PC VR, Quest)Originally launched for flatscreen platforms in 2018, Hidden Memories of The Gardens Between is a puzzle adventure that finds two best friends, Arina and Frendt, falling into a strange world.
