Oculus knows how to celebrate holidays with their customers. Over the Thanksgiving holiday, the company released multiple packs that were bargains. Over the holiday season of December, Oculus and Facebook have made even more packs for their customers. Along with the December game packs, Oculus has announced their VR game awards of 2019 for both the Oculus Quest and the Rift Platform.
We aren’t too sure how the voting was done for these awards, but we are pretty sure they nailed it. Below, we will be listing out the games and awards they gave the game. We will be covering both gaming platforms.
Oculus Quest Awards
The Quest was not only released this year, but also took the title as the all-around best VR headset. There were plenty of games that have been made for this platform, but only a handful have the games made have cracked this list.
