Assassin's Creed VR has been renamed Assassin's Creed Nexus VR, and it will launch later this year for Meta Quest VR headsets. Ubisoft announced this project back in 2021, and while we did not get much in the form of information outside of the new subtitle for this VR Assasin's Creed game, we can get a full reveal of Nexus VR later this month at Ubisoft Forward.

Meta subsidiary Sanzaru Games officially announced a sequel to its 2019 ARPG Asgard's Wrath. As the final announcement at the Meta Ques Gaming Showcase, Sanzaru Games provided a demo walkthrough of Asgard's Wrath 2.

Sanzaru studio creative director Mat Kraemer noted during the presentation that Asgar's Wrather 2 will have "massive worlds beyond the scope of any other game on the Meta Quest platform," an interesting tidbit considering the Meta Quest 3 was announced just a few hours ago. Not to mention the Quest 2 and Pro will be getting a software update that will improve performance on both.

Samba de Amigo: Party Central was announced at a Nintendo Direct showcase earlier this year. While we knew the game was coming to Nintendo's hybrid console, today's showcase confirmed a VR version was in the works for Meta Quest headsets.

However, the VR port won't release at the same time as its Switch counterpart, which is launching on August 29.
