Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot is the series' only VR game, released alongside Youngblood in July 2019. You play a hacker in 1980 Paris who helps the French resistance by taking control of Nazi war machines and turning them against the regime. Steam lists it as VR only with tracked controller support. That is also its main barrier: you need a SteamVR headset plus a PC with at least 8 GB of RAM and a GTX 1070 or RX Vega 56 class card. Reception is the weakest on this list, with 51% of 321 Steam reviews positive and a Metacritic score of 54 shown on Steam. At $19.99 it costs the same as The New Order, which offers a full campaign. It earns a place because it is the only way to play Wolfenstein in VR, but most fans should buy it on sale, if at all.
