Nothing can beat an immersive experience in VR and when it comes to racing games in VR, the different racing wheel controllers complete the experience by making the player feel like they are actually inside the game.
PlayStation VR has a couple of games that are compatible with the racing wheel and it makes the entire experience immersive.
If you have not played any of the games with the racing wheel then do read this post where we would list the games that are compatible.
There are not many games that go with the racing wheel so as of now you can say that the content is limited on the PlayStation VR for this particular type of games.
Hopefully we would be able to see more racing games in the future that are compatible with the wheel but for now, let’s explore the games that we have-
1. DriveClub VR
The first time I realized that one could use a racing wheel in VR is when I saw the demo of Driveclub. It was one of the games that released with the PSVR and despite a few issues during the release, the game turned out to be pretty amazing.
There are different races that you can go for with amazing cars on different race tracks. The DriveClub was the first game in VR that somewhere reminded me of the typical racing games that we played but this one was amped with VR.
It was slightly disappointing to know about the motion sickness issue but by the time the game released the issue was resolved and you could play the game.
Now adding a racing wheel to this experience is just going to make it all the more immersive. If you have not yet played the game on your PSVR then you have to take a look at the trailer below.
Overall, the game gives you the immersive first-person experience that you would want in a VR racing game and if you are looking for something more then you have to get this racing wheel to it as an add-on.
2. Dirt Rally
If you want to race on the edge on an uneven terrain or difficult roads then the Dirt Rally is probably the best VR racing game.
Once you add the racing wheels with the game, the experience just gets more immersive and you are going to love racing in VR. The game in itself is pretty immersive as you have to go through different race tracks where each come with their own difficulty level.
I was impressed with the game in VR but when you try it out with a good quality racing wheel then the experience just gets to another level of amazing.
Dirt Rally is a game you should definitely try playing with your Thrustmaster and if you not yet played this game in VR then we highly recommend that you check out the trailer below.
3. Grand Turismo Sport VR
This game is probably one of my favorites among the list as the graphics on this one is on point. It just feels so realistic in VR and the fact that you can browse different sports car and get a close up look on them just makes my day.
The game is compatible with racing wheels so if you want to make the experience realistic then you can easily pair it up with a Thrustmaster and get into the race.
The only problem with this game is that it is not a full game and the experience is very limited in VR. However, the quality of the game justifies investing in it so do get the game even if you feel it is a small VR experience as it is going to be worth your money.
These are the set of games that are compatible with steering wheels on PlayStation VR and if you think we have left out any game then let us know about it in the comments down below!
