Looking for the best deals on VR games this Black Friday? Here’s what we’ve seen so far.
Black Friday is finally here and if you’re looking to spend some time inside your headset this holiday, there’s a huge raft of discounts available across VR gaming. While we’ll mention hardware deals within this list, we’re primarily focusing on sales for individual games across Quest, PC VR, PlayStation VR2, Viveport, the original PlayStation VR, and Pico.
Expect this list to receive further updates by Cyber Monday, but for now, here’s everything we’ve spotted.
Quest
For anyone sticking to the Quest 2 or Quest 3 family this year, the Meta Horizon Store has kicked off its Black Friday sales. Available until December 3, using the code ‘BFCM24’ at checkout can get up to 40% off select games, and this code can be used multiple times. Many titles are currently on sale, alongside ten separate bundles.
We’ve listed our highlights below but please note that the official list doesn’t include every discount:
While we didn’t expect to see any major hardware deals given Meta’s recent launch of the Quest 3S, one particular offer from Target includes a $75 gift card during Black Friday.
SteamVR Autumn Sale
While we had seen a few individual discounts beforehand, the Steam Autumn Sale is live until December 4 and our highlights include Half-Life: Alyx and Vertigo 2. As always, we’ve kept our recommendations varied between newer games with smaller discounts, older titles with a larger sale, and a few of the classics.
Here’s what you can currently find for PC VR discounts on Steam.
PlayStation VR2
Sony’s kicked off its latest Black Friday sale until December 2 and while that includes hundreds of different games, there’s only 14 PlayStation VR2 supported titles and three DLC packs among the official selection. However, further games not directly linked with the Black Friday sale are discounted elsewhere. Select titles have an increased discount for PlayStation Plus subscribers, too.
We’ve listed each game in the official selection below, alongside a few additional choices. Games which support cross-buy with the original PSVR headset have been noted, too.
With hardware, Sony’s given PlayStation VR2 a major discount, and you can get the headset with Horizon Call Of The Mountain for $350. More on that below.
Pico
Pico regularly bundles several games at once with its headsets offers, and that’s no different this Black Friday. This time around, you can get a new Pico 4 Ultra headset with the Pico Motion Trackers, three free games, and a one-month premium subscription for VRChat Plus.
As for individual Pico games, this initially didn’t have much but numerous discounts have since emerged. Here’s the best offers we’ve seen.
Viveport
While Vive does fall under PC VR, we’ve given it a separate section from Steam because there are a few Viveport-specific deals available. The Black Friday sale offers 10% off an Infinity subscription, and Annual subscribers will receive a copy of Arizona Sunshine 2 Deluxe Edition to keep. Eight game bundles are also available for 50% off, which we’ve detailed below.

Other PC VR Sales
The Humble Store has also gone live with Black Friday Fest 2024 and there’s over 90 SteamVR games included. It’s mostly older games on offer, so if you’re looking to plug some gaps in your library, here’s our highlights.
Elsewhere on the Epic Games Store, you can get Tetris Effect: Connected for 50% off and Operation Wolf Returns: First Mission VR for 70% off. GOG and GMG also have small PC VR discounts. On the hardware side, Bigscreen Beyond headsets are including the Audio Strap for Black Friday.
