FAQ — VR & AR in Australia

Are all VR titles region-free?

Many are, but some publishers restrict content by region. Always check the AU store listing or publisher FAQ before purchase.

It depends on the title. Our reviews list minimum and recommended GPU/CPU for Australian test rigs.

How to test comfort settings?

Try reduced motion and snap-turn options first; most AU players find a custom comfort preset works best.
