REVIEW: Jacked Up (2025 VR Game) For MetaQuest

Jacked Up is exactly the kind of VR oddity that sneaks up on you. The premise is absurd, you play as a ripped rabbit climbing a massive tower while your progress is streamed to an in-game audience, but the execution is spot-on. The bounce-based movement feels great, and every failed jump just makes you want to try again. With gyms acting as checkpoints and muscle-bound animals cheering you on, the game keeps its tongue firmly in cheek while delivering that one-more-go loop.

It isn't flawless. The graphics are basic and the gameplay can feel repetitive after a while, especially if you're hoping for variety beyond the climb. Motion sickness is also a genuine risk if you're sensitive. But for a penny under six quid, Jacked Up is funny, addictive, and refreshingly different. Right now it's a solid 7 out of 10, with potential to get even better as new challenges and mini-games arrive in future updates.
