Summary

This is the era of technology. VR technology has taken the gaming experience to the next level. Android is now the most progressive platform for gaming. Joining two leading platforms can surely take the mobile gaming experience to the next level.

In VR games, the user gets the chance to be inside the game environment. However, there are a lot of limitations in developing games for Android with the VR feature. Google has already announced its upcoming VR development platform, Daydream, which includes extended controls with a separate controller.

The VR gaming industry is growing rapidly. It has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. However, there is no doubt that the gameplay experience is far better than the conventional gameplay system. So, it will not be a wrong assumption that the future of the Android VR gaming industry is bright.
