Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxies Edge is a virtual reality Star Wars game for the Oculus Quest and Quest 2. You play as an unnamed Droid Repair tech who unwittingly gets entangled in a battle against the Guavian Death Gang, and in Last Call you also find yourself battling the First Order.

The game is fast paced with plenty of combat, an array of weapons and upgrades for your character, and quite immersive in terms of interacting with alien creatures, battling groups of enemies, and bumping into furniture in your room! The story is fast paced, and the game is relatively short, but for a VR game this is to be expected. What it lacks in length it more than makes up for in quality in terms of the writing, the gameplay and the environments.

You get to play with blasters, grenades, droids, and even force powers and a lightsaber through the game. The tales are fairly short in relation to the rest of the game, but they nonetheless are immersive and quite intuitive to get the abilities down. If you have an Oculus Quest, I’d highly recommend the game if you’re looking for a fun new experience.
