6 apps that take you to a VR world

Grab a headset and jump into virtual reality

- 

With Apple focusing on augmented reality (AR), you might not be aware of how many great virtual reality (VR) apps are available. Unlike AR, which overlays digital content onto the real world, VR takes you to a new place entirely, shut off from the world in a fully immersive virtual realm. You don’t need a hugely powerful Mac to enjoy it — just a relatively modern iOS device and a headset. While many headsets can be expensive, they don’t have to be: Google Cardboard, for example, lets you build your own. Now is the ideal time to give VR a try — if it sounds like your thing, we have the perfect apps for you here.
