Okay, so you’re not quite itching to drop a hundred bucks on Quest games just yet. I get it. Luckily, there’s a whole buffet of free stuff—games, wild adventures, apps, and even social hangouts in VR. Zero dollars. Nada. Perfect, right?
Oh, and by the way, if you want your Quest 3 setup to scream “next level,” don’t skip the scoop on top Quest 3 gadgets. Seriously, some of those add-ons are worth a peek.
### Free Quest Games
#### Yeeps: Hide and Seek
Ever wanted to be a Yeep? Wait, what’s a Yeep? Never mind. Think of it like this: your little guy’s tummy is loaded with stuffing—the stuff of dreams and destruction alike. Need a pillow fort or fancy creating a mini apocalypse? It’s all in your mind, and manifesting it is surprisingly fun. Who knew playing with blocks could unleash your inner creativity guru?
#### Gorilla Tag
Oh man, this one’s a trip! Picture yourself lumbering around like a gorilla (yes, really) in this leafy arena, grabbing onto the world around you in the kookiest way ever. It’s ridiculous fun! Just… keep a safe distance from your TV and any unsuspecting pets because, trust me on this, swinging like an ape makes for some wild close calls.
#### Animal Company
Take Gorilla Tag, sprinkle in a dash of multiplayer magic, and bam—you’ve got Animal Company. Weird places to explore, goodies to collect, monsters lurking… it’s a whole vibe. Pro-tip: adventure with pals; it’s way more fun dodging traps and scheming together.
#### Orion Drift
Speaking of Gorilla Tag, let’s talk Orion Drift. It takes the whacky movement style and says, “Hey, what about a space party?” Up to 75 people zooming about, playing Drift Ball (think Rocket League meets low gravity), and indulging in parkour and sword fights. Because why not? Bonus: chill zones for when you just want to relax and chat.
#### Population: One
VR battle royale, anyone? Population: One nails it. Picture yourself climbing, shooting, and soaring with a team—no cosmetic upgrades necessary (unless you’re into that sort of thing). From custom maps to an all-out war mode, it’s a free-for-all in the best way possible.
#### VAIL
Free shooter thrills with VAIL. Now, sure, some stuff costs extra, but the free Citadel maps are perfect for honing those shooter skills. Who doesn’t love a good 5v5 showdown?
#### Gym Class – Basketball
Can’t dunk IRL? No worries. Gym Class lets you channel your inner basketball legend. Face off in multiplayer games that make gravity seem optional. Buckets!
#### VRFS – Football (Soccer) Simulator
Much like Gym Class, but for soccer—VRFS lets you get your footy fix. You won’t even need shin guards; it’s all about hands mimicking footwork. Crazy? Maybe, but it’s a blast.
#### Hyper Dash
Think fast-paced shooter with dashing, rail grinding, and more modes than you can shake a joystick at. Hyper Dash knows how to keep you on your toes, blending cross-play chaos with gusto.
#### Devil’s Roulette
Okay, Russian Roulette with a twist: this game adds modifiers. Think dodge bullets, zap opponents—rock-paper-scissors with, well, fewer casualties.
#### Cards & Tankards
Card battling sensation meets virtual tavern. Wanna duel your pals with over 180 cards? Dive in! And cross-play with your SteamVR buddies? Absolutely.
#### Poker Stars – Vegas Infinite
Love poker but not the real-world stakes? PokerStars has you covered. Go all-in on free chips, enjoy a whole casino’s worth of games—just watch out for those dopamine spikes.
#### Gods of Gravity
An epic celestial showdown: scoop ships, capture planets, and dominate the cosmos. Be the last god standing in this arcade-style RTS. The universe is your playground.
### Social VR Platforms
#### Rec Room
Ah, Rec Room. An endless playground of mini-games, social zones, and more. Dress up or don’t—who cares? Meet people, have fun, all while your wallet gathers dust.
#### VRChat
You’ve heard the stories: VRChat’s where the internet gets weird and wonderful in VR. From homebrewed games to embodying SpongeBob or some obscure anime character, anything’s possible here.
#### Horizon Worlds
Meta’s pet VR project, Horizon Worlds, has been evolving. More tools, games, and user content mean it’s quite the place to check out these days. And again—it’s free, so why not?
Whew! There’s a second page to dive into, full of free experiences and apps, because why stop now?
