Free Fan-Made Mod Turns Titanfall 2 Into One of the Best VR Games Ever, Reviewer Says

A free mod for Titanfall 2 has turned the 2016 shooter into what one reviewer at The Verge describes as one of the best virtual reality games available.

The mod adapts Titanfall 2's core mechanics, including wall-running, jump-pad traversal, and piloting giant mechanized battle suits called Titans, for VR headsets. According to The Verge, the game retains the rush of its signature movement system even when experienced in first-person VR, with the Verge reviewer recalling the particular thrill of leaping into the air with a jump pack and running along walls before summoning a Titan.

A Long-Running Fan Favorite

Titanfall 2, originally developed by Respawn Entertainment, has maintained a dedicated fan base since its 2016 release, prized in particular for its fluid movement mechanics and campaign design. The report credits a modder, identified as Jordan Juarez and known online as CircuitLord, with building the VR adaptation.

The Verge's report did not specify which VR headsets are compatible with the mod or whether any official support from the game's original developers or publisher is involved. Fan-made mods of this kind typically require players to already own the base game on PC.

The mod's release adds to a broader trend of community-built VR adaptations of established non-VR titles, which have in some cases drawn significant attention within gaming communities for making older games feel new again.
