Night of the Living Dead VR is a movie experience and not a game (except for a few parts perhaps). This black-and-white zombie-filled experience is based on the original film 1968 Night of the Living Dead by George A. Romero. There are lots of things to explore and you will be placed in a full-scale 3D recreation of the film’s iconic farmhouse set.
This was a spooky experience that was released in 2020. Does it still hold up?

Night of the Living Dead VR Review Experience
As mentioned Night of the Living Dead VR is not really a game, but an immersive experience made especially for fans of the classic film. You are transported into a black-and-white world where zombies are quickly approaching. You can interact with various props and devices around the farmhouse from the film. There is a very small mini game where you pick up pieces of wood and hammer them onto the windows just like they do in the film. You will then be able to take a gun and shoot the zombies as they approach the house. There is very little skill here and it is a mostly an experience more than any type of actual game or wave shooter.
In the basement, you will be able to find a film projector with detailed and lengthy documentaries and interviews with the original cast and crew about the film. There are 2d films though appearing on a projector screen.
Overall this is an earlier VR experience so there is not a whole lot to it. It is pretty much similar to what you would find on the special features of a DVD but a bit more interactive.
It is something that fans of the film will enjoy and it is free!
Who Will Enjoy Playing Night of the Living Dead VR?
Night of the Living Dead VR is rated M for Mature. There is blood, violence, and partial nudity just like in the original film. This is really designed as a fan service to the film but would also be a great first experience to show people new to VR who enjoy zombies and classic horror films.
