truly a "must play" for vr gamers. I beat this game in mid 2025 and think its just creative and wonderful. One of the few vr games that really saves some of the best stuff to the end. Had moments that reminded me of bizarre and creepy sci fi like somewhere between space odyssey and Event horizon. Less horror and more puzzles. But really fun puzzles. Loved this game would recommend for anyone with a vr headset

It's a great game! The only thing is that it is a sequel so play red matter 1 first and it is very much an atmospheric horror game. There are no jumpscares but it is spooky at times.

Right behind Skyrim VR with FUS mod, Red Matter 2 is the best VR game I have played to date. It is even better than its predecessor, Red Matter 1 (which is also a fantastic game). The graphical realism, creative story telling and game play are the best available in VR. The puzzles are fun and not too challenging which I appreciate. I put this game above Lone Echo as the premiere VR space game experience and for me personally, I enjoyed it even more than Half Life Alyx (also a top notch VR game). The game ran buttery smooth on my RTX 5070. I hope the developers don't stop producing new games. There are so many VR titles out there, but few match the quality and performance of Red Matter 2. I got it for an absolute bargain of $16 and some change. This title seems to go on sale regularly. Highly recommend.
