Rival Stars Horse Racing: VR Edition, the debut VR entry in the world’s most successful horse racing and equestrian mobile game franchise of all time from developer PikPok, opens its stables all over the world with its Meta Quest and Steam VR launch on April 17, 2025.
Take the reins on a virtual ranch in an all-new Rival Stars Horse Racing entry, built from the ground up as a fully immersive equestrian lifestyle simulator. Care, raise, and race well-bred horses while building up the stable’s prestige with each trophy won. Breed new generations of foals and produce gorgeous eye-catching coats and patterns, but don’t forget to keep them brushed out and happy!
Step into a digital saddle and compete in thrilling horse races. Master intuitive VR controls designed for immersive and accessible riding that brings the adrenaline of racing into the living room. Compete against computer-controlled jockeys and other players for the top spot on global leaderboards, seeking the top spot by working in tandem with a trusty steed.
Steer away from horse races to take part in breathtaking cross-country excursions. Guide bonded horses across cross-country courses, taking in the sights and navigating terrain with gesture-based controls. There are plenty of reasons to saddle up, even off the tracks. Luxuriate in the ranch’s leafy landscapes, explore new locations in Story Mode, and feel virtual breezes as riders bond with their steeds through regular care and exercise.
“The equestrian lifestyle is an idyllic fantasy to many – one that Rival Stars Horse Racing VR will finally fulfill, even if they live miles away from the nearest stable,” said Mario Wynands, CEO of PikPok. “There’s an inherent romance to ranch life that we hope to help our fans and community enjoy.”
Rival Stars Horse Racing: VR Edition will arrive on Meta Quest 2 & Meta Quest 3 and Steam VR on April 17, 2025, for $19.99 USD, with English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, and Korean language support.
