The New Year has arrived, and January 2026 kicks off with a diverse lineup of PCVR titles to test your hardware. We have list 9 upcoming games, ranging from precision shooters and high-speed platformers to psychological horror and physics sandboxes, ensuring there’s something for every type of VR enthusiast to start the year right.

MARKSMAN VR (2026.01.09)

Start the year with a test of focus and stability. MARKSMAN VR is a dedicated tactical shooter that prioritizes long-range engagement and realistic ballistics over run-and-gun chaos. You’ll need to account for wind, drop, and your own breathing as you line up shots across vast environments.

For Pimax users, this is where high pixel density truly matters, spotting a target hundreds of meters away requires the kind of crystal-clear clarity that the Crystal Super delivers.

Perfect for players who prefer a steady hand and a calculated approach to combat.

Void Jump VR (2026.01.15)

If you crave speed, Void Jump VR is an adrenaline-fueled platformer set in a neon-soaked abstract universe. The gameplay is all about momentum, chaining wall runs, massive leaps, and gravity-defying maneuvers to race through complex obstacle courses.

It’s a rush for those who have their "VR legs" and want to experience the thrill of flight.

GHOST CAM (2026.01.19)

GHOST CAM offers a unique twist on the horror genre: your weapon isn't a gun, but a camera. You are tasked with exploring abandoned, haunted locations to capture photographic evidence of the paranormal.

The game relies heavily on lighting and shadows; you often won't see the entity until the camera flash goes off. This is a showcase for local dimming technology, where the deep blacks make the sudden bursts of light even more terrifying.

Ideal for horror fans who love the atmosphere and jump scares.

Salmon Man (2026.01.23)

Sometimes you just need something weird, and Salmon Man delivers exactly that. This indie adventure puts you in the fins of a fish-human hybrid navigating a surreal, colorful world filled with bizarre challenges and slapstick humor.

It’s vibrant, unexpected, and a complete departure from the gritty realism of other titles. A great palate cleanser for anyone looking for a casual, laugh-out-loud VR experience.

The Lists VR (2026.01)

The Lists VR takes the concept of simulation to a strangely satisfying, zen-like level. It’s a productivity and organization simulator where you manage complex tasks and inventories in a tactile virtual space.

While it sounds simple, the satisfaction comes from the physics-based interactions—stamping papers, sorting items, and checking off boxes. Visually, it demands sharp text readability, ensuring that menus and documents are legible without eye strain.

Frenzy Blood (2026.01)

For those who want raw action, Frenzy Blood is a brutal arena combat game. You are thrown into a gladiator-style pit against waves of enemies, utilizing melee weapons and environmental hazards to survive.

The game emphasizes physics-based gore and fast reactions. High refresh rates are key here to keep the frantic motion smooth as you dodge attacks and land critical hits.

Slime Lab (2026.01)

Slime Lab is a physics-based sandbox that is as relaxing as it is technically impressive. Players can mix, stretch, and bounce various types of slime fluids, experimenting with chemical reactions and gravity.

The translucent rendering of the fluids and the way light refracts through the slime look stunning on high-resolution panels. It’s a perfect "toy box" experience for creative players who just want to mess around with realistic physics.

Bent on Destruction (2026.01)

Have you ever wanted to break everything in a room without the cleanup? Bent on Destruction is your answer. This simulation game focuses entirely on realistic structural damage—smashing glass, crumbling concrete, and toppling structures with a variety of heavy tools.

The particle effects and debris density are high, making it a graphical treat for powerful PC rigs. A fantastic stress-reliever for anyone looking to let off some steam.

Dread Meridian (2026.01)

Rounding out the list is Dread Meridian, a sci-fi survival horror game set on a derelict space station. You’ll navigate narrow, claustrophobic corridors while managing limited oxygen and battery power, hunted by something that isn't human.

The interplay of metallic surfaces, cold lighting, and total darkness creates an immersive, isolating atmosphere. Recommended for fans of Alien: Isolation style tension who want to feel truly alone in space.
