Oculus Rift games set to launch in July 2019
The library that features all of the Oculus Rift games continues to grow each month on both Steam and the Oculus Store. There are some truly great titles already available, and we're here to help you decide what to save up for. If you're looking for something to get excited about here are the Rift games that are coming this month!
ROGAN : The Thief in the Castle
★ Featured favorite - July 5
Sometimes doing what's right doesn't always mean you're doing what's legal. In this title, you take on the role of a banished knight attempting to prove her innocence by sneaking around the very castle that condemned her. As you make your way through the shadows, make sure you collect all the keys and evidence you need to present to the court and reclaim your title within the kingdom.
★ Staff favorite - July 5
FOCUS on YOU is a tale about you, a young photographer working part-time in a coffee shop, and a beautiful woman you met on a stroll. This is definitely not a game you play for achievements or progression, but rather for the story and experience.

What are you playing?
The Oculus Rift, by far, is the best virtual reality headset for your computer. It's comfortable, reliable, and has the most immersive controllers out of any of the headsets. Not just that, but each month there are always tons of new games for you to get hooked on. In fact, there are more VR games releasing to Steam for headsets like the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift then there are for the PlayStation VR!
This month, I'm looking forward to ROGAN : The Thief in the Castle. Based on the gameplay shown in the trailer, I can already tell this will be the best visual representation of a castle in virtual reality. Whenever I play a VR game based in a castle, I've always noticed how cartoonish, blurry, or weak the graphics are. Rogan looks like it's done a much better job to combat that issue and included some amazing rouge abilities for our characters.
