Los Santos is one of gaming’s best-realized locations and it translates to VR really well. In the moments where the mod works it sings sitting in the driver seat of a car or methodically picking off targets with head-tracking is great in VR. I couldn’t take any video footage because the frames shift the position of characters and items, making it blurry.
After a fairly simple installation process, you can jump into GTA V in VR using a standard gamepad. Modder LukeRoss, who last year released a VR mod of No One Lives Forever 2, is behind this one. It’s not the first, but it is one of the easier ones to install. Launched over the weekend, though, a new mod takes another shot at letting you play the game without that software. There is one existing mod that lets you play the Rockstar classic with a headset, but you’ll need the Vorpx VR driver. Grand Theft Auto V VR is probably one of the most requested VR ports we’ve seen over the last few years.
