Apple Vision Pro: Spatial Games You Can Play on Vision Pro and More

Apple’s Vision Pro headset, priced at $3499, is set to revolutionize gaming with its spatial computing capabilities. Initially announced in June 2023, the headset promises an immersive experience through specially created games that leverage its spatial computing prowess.

In its recent press release, Apple expanded the list of supported Apple Arcade titles from the initially stated 100 to an impressive 250 games at launch. The company is not just stopping there; it plans to introduce “new spatial games” designed exclusively for the Vision Pro. These games, including popular titles like What the Golf?, Game Room, and Super Fruit Ninja, aim to transform the space around players, offering unique and engaging gameplay experiences.

Apple assures gamers that non-spatial games, such as NBA 2K24 Arcade Edition and Sonic Dream Team, will also be playable on the Vision Pro. What’s more, these games can be enjoyed with “popular game controllers,” although the specific hardware compatibility remains undisclosed. The press release also confirmed the Vision Pro’s release date as early 2024. Gamers in the US can get their hands on the device starting February 2nd, with prices starting at $3499 for the 256GB storage model. Pre-orders kick off on January 19th at 5 am PST. Unfortunately, the release timeline for other regions remains unclear.

In July 2023, reports surfaced that Apple had adjusted its internal sales targets for the Vision Pro due to production issues, which also impacted plans for a more affordable version of the headset. Despite these setbacks, Apple seems determined to deliver a cutting-edge gaming experience.
