Definition
Video game experiences played using virtual reality headsets — such as the Meta Quest, PlayStation VR, or Valve Index — that immerse the player in a three-dimensional virtual environment through head-tracking, motion controllers, and stereoscopic displays. VR gaming is a growing content niche in the creator economy, with dedicated YouTube channels, Twitch streams, and review communities. For creators, VR gaming content offers distinctive first-person immersion that differentiates it from traditional gaming content, though the hardware barrier to entry limits the size of the addressable audience compared to mainstream gaming.
