Review: I good read, I was worries that the book would ... - A good read, was worried that the book would repeat the same thing multiple times for each of the different VR headsets. With only 288 pages and: Vive, Rift, GearVR, PSVR among others there is not a lot of space to cover real content. Luckily, I was wrong. The first chapter covers the different systems and provides a few tables that discuss the key difference in the APIs. There are a few pages in chapter 2 that talk about gear VR setup, since it does have a few extra steps when compared to the other systems. Once that is done however the text gets right to the heart of VR development Topics include creating interfaces for your objects, tracing, creating interactive objects, teleportation along with other movement options, Unreal Motion Graphics (UMG)., Kinematics and that is only the first 40% or so of the book. Later own you will learn about optimization, working with motion controllers, even go into the render pipeline and different shader options. Appendix chapters cover using the editor in VR mode and online resources for more information I am happy with the book overall, but keep in mind this is a cookbook, so you are not building a game like most books. Here each chapter will teach you the key elements; tracking, rending menu interaction ect that go into making a game. The nice thing about this text is that you are also told why/how something works were many text simple say do this then this. Review: Great learning tool! - I built an entire multiplayer VR framework using this book in Unreal Engine 4.26. It's a great addition and has MANY helpful codes to copy. Make sure you grab Mitch's files from GitHub too! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,096,664 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #825 in Computer & Video Game Design #1,682 in Game Programming #1,976 in Computer Graphics | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 56 Reviews | ## Images ![Unreal Engine VR Cookbook: Developing Virtual Reality with UE4 (Game Design) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51rQ8jmqqKL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I good read, I was worries that the book would ... *by N***2 on March 15, 2017* A good read, was worried that the book would repeat the same thing multiple times for each of the different VR headsets.

It's a great addition and has MANY helpful codes to copy. Make sure you grab Mitch's files from GitHub too! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book for those with a basic knowledge of UE4 ... *by J***S on January 25, 2018* Great book for those with a basic knowledge of UE4 but very little knowledge and experience in VR. Covers the fundamental operations of VR in sufficient detail (e.g. how to move, grab objects, etc.). This won't make you an expert, but by the end of the book most readers will understand and have the capability to create basic VR apps (i.e. indie games rather than Robo Recall). 4 stars instead of 5 because the author tends to explain what a blueprint does after constructing it, which requires going back and reading the instructions a second time to understand the purpose of all the steps. If you don't know how to perform basic operations in Unreal (e.g. create a project, drag and drop a pawn, create a blueprint), I'd recommend watching youtube videos and spending a few hours getting to know the basics of Unreal before diving into this book. Otherwise it will be difficult to focus on the VR concepts if you're trying to learn Unreal engine basics at the same time. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/39110455-unreal-engine-vr-cookbook-developing-virtual-reality-with-ue4-game](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/39110455-unreal-engine-vr-cookbook-developing-virtual-reality-with-ue4-game) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-09-02*
