[UPDATED 19 Oct: 3 New games added]

As the launch of the Oculus Quest 2 inches nearer, many developers have become vocal about their upcoming updates that bring new enhancements to their game’s when played on the Oculus Quest 2.

Thanks to the extra power of the Oculus Quest 2, developers have revisited their Quest titles and given them a fresh look and improved performance, thanks to the additional power inside the Quest 2 headset. The most common enhancement gamers will find are an increase in resolutions, real-time lighting, removed foveated rendering (pixelated edging), increased in-game objects/geometry, improved higher-resolution textures and 90Hz support (when available).

Most of these enhancements would not be possible on Quest, and the videos teased by developers clearly show a night and day improvement – just don’t expect to be running Half-Life Alyx any time soon!

Check out the list below for the games that will come with enhanced visuals and performance on Quest 2. Most will be ready at launch, with more updates after the Quest 2 launch.
