REVIEW: Stunt X Mania (SXM) a 2026 VR Video Game on MetaQuest

Stunt X Mania (SXM) is a VR motocross game that puts the focus on learning to ride, mastering tricks and pushing your bike to its limits. The controls are one of its strongest aspects, with intuitive shifting and braking, convincing motorcycle handling and the choice between manual gears or a simplified automatic system. Free Roam is particularly enjoyable for simply riding around and practising, while Career Mode and Challenges provide more structured goals. The stunt system offers 12 authentic FMX tricks, including Superman, Tsunami, Cliff Hanger and MC Metz, with the more advanced manoeuvres requiring plenty of practice.

Unfortunately, motion sickness was a major problem for me, with tracks featuring bumps and grooves becoming particularly uncomfortable and limiting my play sessions to around 20 minutes. The learning curve can also be steep when attempting the more complicated stunts, while the graphics are functional rather than spectacular. There is currently no multiplayer either, although co-op and competitive modes are planned. Stunt X Mania is therefore a decent VR motorcycle game with enjoyable riding and plenty to master, but its motion sickness issues and lack of multiplayer hold it back.

REVIEW: Hyperstacks VR (2026 Video Game) on MetaQuest

Hyperstacks combines combat, parkour, puzzle-solving and level creation into a colourful VR experience that makes good use of its three core gameplay pillars. Combat benefits from VR weapons, environmental hazards and frantic encounters, while the movement system gives you climbing, grappling hooks, ziplines, jumping, teleportation and skating. The logic systems, powered by Greenlink, add another layer of challenge, with campaign levels introducing the mechanics progressively through character-led quests and interactions.

The level editor is one of Hyperstacks' strongest features, giving players accessible tools for creating enemies, traps, movement challenges, puzzles, logic systems, colours and lighting. Community-created levels add substantial replayability, while fast loading makes it easy to explore new creations. The sheer number of systems can make the experience feel somewhat unfocused if you are looking for one highly polished gameplay style, but the combination works well overall.

REVIEW: CINESCAPE VR (2026 Video Game) - on MetaQuest VR

CINESCAPE VR is a puzzle-focused VR adventure set across themed film studio environments, built around the Cinemorphosis mechanic that lets players shift objects between real and fake states. It has a strong sense of atmosphere, with detailed sets and a clear effort to make each area feel like a living production space. The core idea is inventive and gives the game a distinct identity within the Meta Quest library.

However, the experience is held back by uneven execution. Early interactions can feel unclear, and puzzle logic does not always behave consistently, which can disrupt progression. The pacing also struggles, with narrative momentum sometimes fading as players move through the studio trials. Even so, it remains an engaging concept with clear ambition, and it shows real potential if refined further.

REVIEW: Sky Legends - An aeropostal Epic (2026 VR Video Game) - on MetaQuest

 

Sky Legends: An Aeropostal Epic takes VR aviation in an unexpected direction, focusing less on pure flight action and more on the wider story of early commercial aviation. Set in the 1920s, it places players into the roles of pioneering figures, blending flying sequences with exploration, management and puzzle solving. What stands out most is how much variety it manages to pack into what initially appears to be a straightforward flight experience.

The game succeeds through its atmosphere, strong visual identity and thoughtful mix of gameplay styles, even if the point and click movement system feels slightly restrictive in VR. It is slower paced than traditional flight titles, but that works in its favour for anyone interested in history and narrative driven design. The end result is an engaging and surprisingly rich VR experience that feels both educational and entertaining.
