The realm of virtual reality (VR) modifications is a captivating adventure waiting to be explored! I have a profound passion for mods that transform traditional flat-screen games into immersive virtual experiences, finding them far more thrilling than the current official VR releases. While some highly anticipated titles may have fallen short of expectations, nothing compares to the joy of rediscovering classic games in VR, reigniting our love for this groundbreaking technology.

Venturing into digital worlds we once cherished, feeling as though we truly belong there, is nothing short of magical. Today’s episode of VR Corner serves as a brilliant testament to the sheer excitement this form of entertainment can offer!

A legendary modding team, known as Team Fusion, not only reimagined the 1996 game Tomb Raider for VR-compatible devices and PC VR with their remarkable—albeit slightly unwieldy—creation, Fusion Raider VR, but also introduced a first-person perspective with six degrees of freedom (6DoF) and weapon control for Lara Croft!

Immersing myself in this modification has been an incredible experience, visibly radiating my enthusiasm in this week’s VR Corner episode, as I come to the realization that this may be the most delightful way to experience the game. However, there comes a moment where I quite literally plunge into deep waters and grapple with the slightly more complex controls…

Given that Fusion Raider VR is still in early access, one can anticipate future enhancements, particularly regarding underwater gameplay mechanics. Additionally, Lara’s shooting and overall movement in VR are far more user-friendly compared to the original version with tank controls. Eager to try out this mod yourself? You can download it via Team Fusion’s Patreon (with a monthly subscription fee), available here.
