UPDATED: New VR Games & Releases September 2026: Quest, PS VR2, PC VR & More

Looking for a list of the new VR releases for PC VR, Meta Quest, PlayStation VR2 and other platforms in September? We’ve got you covered.

With two-thirds of 2026 behind us, we start looking ahead to one of the busiest seasons in the gaming industry. After a summer full of anticipation-building showcases and speculation on new hardware, September sees the releases of games we’ve seen in multiple VR showcases this year like Sol Protocol, The Lightkeepers, and Knights of Fiona. On the hardware side, Meta hosts its annual Meta Connect summit and we’re expecting Valve’s Steam Frame any day now. The new headset already has over fifty VR games certified at the time of this article.

We will update this article all month long with any new dates or delays. Some games have ‘September 2026’ as the release window without a specific date, so we are keeping an eye on those. If we missed any new titles with confirmed dates, let us know down in the comments. For a list of all the upcoming VR games we are aware of, check out that article here.

Games marked with an asterisk (*) are slated to release in Early Access.

Squingle Arcade – September 9 (PC VR)

In Squingle Arcade, players manipulate glowing spheres and attempt to make them travel through complicated tubular obstacle courses. The object of the game is to keep the orbs from touching the sides of the courses, to avoid obstacles, collect other orbs scattered along the route, and to do all of this in the shortest time possible. Squingle Arcade follows on from the previously-released Squingle, an award-winning 3D puzzle game that first debuted in 2021.

Store Link(s) – Steam

Detective VR – September 9 (PC VR, PS VR2)

The game has been available on Meta Quest since early 2025.

Gunman Contracts – Stand Alone – September 10 (Steam)

Originally a Half-Life: Alyx mod, Gunman Contracts Stand Alone is an action-movie-inspired first-person shooter (playable in both VR and flat). You play as a professional hitman taking on the city’s ruthless criminal element, bringing justice to a seedy underworld beyond the reach of the law.

Developed by Spectral Games, likely best known for its work on Medieval Dynasty New Settlement, The Lightkeepers takes place in the 1920s in a world “where daylight unveils discoveries and nightfall demands survival.” You and your friends travel by boat to various uncharted islands during the day in search of weapons, gear, and treasure to prepare to defend your lighthouse base. This will include some puzzle solving to unlock certain doors and secrets. At night, the lighthouse must be defended against an onslaught of various monsters.

Bomb The Hill – September 10 (Quest)

In Bomb the Hill, you’ll race down dangerous mountain roads, weave through traffic at insane speeds, battle desperate rivals, perform tricks, and survive brutal crashes. The game blends realistic downhill skating mechanics with atmospheric storytelling and a road-trip vibe.

Fresh Tracks VR – September 10 (PC VR)

Fresh Tracks VR is an action-rhythm game where players ride hectic slopes all while navigating obstacles, upgrading skills, and swiping away at aggressive enemies. Initially released in August 2025 as a flatscreen experience, Fresh Tracks is officially coming to VR as a separate release.

META4 Interactive’s VR retro arcade rail shooter Transformers: Beyond Reality Redux is coming to Meta Quest on September 10.

CleanSheet Soccer 2 – September 17 (Quest)

Incisiv, the developer of CleanSheet Soccer 2, has announced that their goaltending arcade game is coming to Meta Quest on September 17. The game had previously been available on PlayStation VR2 only. Rather than chase the fantasy of scoring spectacular goals, in CleanSheet Soccer 2 you’re trying to stop them. You play as a goalkeeper, using your hands to punch, block, catch, and deflect shots in training missions, mock games, and arcade-style minigames.

CleanSheet Soccer 2 Hands On: Breaking A Sweat With PlayStation VR2’s New Goalkeeping Game

CleanSheet Soccer 2 is a seriously engaging sports and fitness game for PlayStation VR2.

CONVRGENCE 1.0 Release – September 17 (PC VR)

Created by solo developer Monkey-With-a-Bomb, CONVRGENCE is a STALKER-esque shooter with horror elements similar to Into the Radius. You play as a mystical artifact hunter scavenging for loot, and each expedition across the Chernokamensk exclusion zone takes place in a procedurally generated location.

CONVRGENCE has been in Early Access for over two years, first releasing in April 2024. In that time, it has seen a steady stream of content updates adding new enemies, missions, guns, and features. According to the roadmap, the 1.0 update will see a rework of the main missions (including a proper ending) with added story context and voice acting. Other features expected are advanced graphics and difficulty settings, cloud saves, and a new tutorial.

Sol Protocol* – September 17 (Quest)

Developed by Singular Perception (Epyka), Sol Protocol draws inspiration from the now delisted Star Trek: Bridge Crew, 2012’s FTL: Faster Than Light, & 2024’s Void Crew. You and two friends assume three interchangeable roles on a fully interactive spaceship: pilot, gunner, and engineer. Your team travels through hostile star systems and works together to survive a variety of procedurally generated encounters in deep space, including battles with enemy ships and exploration of abandoned outposts, stations, and other structures.

Scared by Squares – September 24 (PC VR)

The entire world of Scared by Squares is made of cubes, playing out as a series of rooms players have to navigate from one side to the other. The rooms can shift and transform while moving through them, presenting unpredictable challenges in an eerie, unnerving atmosphere. Scared by Squares is available for Meta Quest and the Steam listing has a free demo available.

Into the Radius 2 – September 24 (PS VR2)

Dystopian survival shooter Into the Radius 2 launches on PlayStation VR2 on September 24. Developer CM Immersive says the port will run at a native 90fps with eye-tracked dynamic foveated rendering to boost performance. It also has headset haptics and utilizes the Sense controllers’ adaptive triggers. That said, the game will not support co-op gameplay at launch. That is planned for a free update in Q4 2026.
