A virtual reality YouTuber sorts through the summer’s SteamVR catalog and hands PC headset owners a shopping list.

Ben Plays VR, one of the more prolific voices covering PC virtual reality on YouTube, dropped his “Top 10 PC VR Games – June 2019” countdown as headset owners hunted for something worth strapping in for that summer. The video is built the way his channel typically runs these lists: ranked entries, brief breakdowns of why each title made the cut, and direct Steam links so viewers can buy or wishlist on the spot. It’s a snapshot of the SteamVR storefront at a specific moment in mid-2019, not a generic all-time list.

• VTOL VR, a physics-driven flight simulator, lands at No. 10 on the countdown.
• Pixel Ripped 1989, a retro-inspired adventure built around nostalgia for handheld gaming, ranks at No. 9.
• The video includes direct Steam links for each recommended release, part of Ben Plays VR’s ongoing series spotlighting SteamVR titles through the summer of 2019.

A Curated Countdown, Not a Generic Best-Of

What separates this video from a lazy “greatest hits” list is the specificity of the picks. Rather than defaulting to the usual suspects that show up on every VR roundup regardless of release date, Ben Plays VR builds the June 2019 list around titles that were actually gaining traction on Steam at that time, giving PC VR owners a reason to check the list even if they already know the genre’s biggest names.

VTOL VR Claims the No. 10 Spot

Sitting at No. 10 is VTOL VR, a flight sim that leans hard into cockpit-level physics and hands-on aircraft systems rather than arcade-style dogfighting. It’s the kind of title that rewards patience — learning switches, throttle response, and instrument layouts — over quick reflexes, which is exactly why it earned a spot on a countdown built around depth rather than flash. Ben Plays VR has covered the sim’s immersive cockpit feel elsewhere on his channel, and that same appeal is what pushes it onto this list.

A flight sim that makes learning the switches feel more rewarding than pulling the trigger.

Pixel Ripped 1989 Brings Retro Nostalgia to No. 9

One spot up, at No. 9, is Pixel Ripped 1989 — an adventure game that folds handheld-console nostalgia into a VR wrapper, blending old-school pixel art with the room-scale perspective only a headset can deliver. It’s a different kind of appeal than VTOL VR’s technical cockpit sim, and the contrast between the two entries shows how broad Ben Plays VR’s June 2019 countdown was trying to be, covering more than one corner of the PC VR catalog rather than leaning on a single genre.

Steam Links Built Into the Format

Every recommended release on the countdown comes paired with a direct Steam link, a small but practical touch that turns the video from passive entertainment into an actual shopping guide. That format is a hallmark of Ben Plays VR’s channel, where the goal isn’t just to rank games but to get viewers from the video straight to a purchase decision without digging through search results themselves.

Between the flight-sim precision of VTOL VR at No. 10 and the pixel-art throwback of Pixel Ripped 1989 at No. 9, the June 2019 countdown makes its case early that this isn’t a recycled list — and with Ben Plays VR running these rankings as a recurring series, the next monthly countdown was always going to be judged against whatever climbs onto Steam’s charts before it airs.
