Buried Alive, USB 2.0 Link, Battle Blocks, Tetris Effect - Latest Oculus Quest News & Games
In this weeks Quest Digest we take a look at a Beta for Space Team which will be released 21st May. We also look at the latest news regarding the release of QuestZDoom and see what Beatsaber looks like using just your fingers!
We also look at a game that's coming soon, Buried Alive. This is said to be an escape room type experience where you need to escape from being buried. We also see a PC update that allows you to use USB 2.0 cables to connect your headset to your PC and play Steam games. This means you can use the charging cable that came with the Quest!
Another game arriving on quest is Battle Blocks, a Tetris type multiplayer games. Tetris Effect was also released in the official Oculus store this week alongside Mini Motor Racing X.
Finally, we check our SideQuest for some of the latest games and experiences that caught my eye this week. Let me know what you think of this weeks news in the comments below.
