Everyone and their mother—well, definitely father—is familiar with standard 2D porn. But 3D porn? That’s where things get taken to the next level. With recent innovations in virtual reality (VR) technology, there is now an extensive range of VR porn that people love for its incredibly immersive experience.

Although this article will do a lot of describing of the VR experience, there’s really nothing like trying it for yourself! So, without further ado, let’s get to ranking the very best VR porn sites for your pervy pleasure.

1. VR Bangers

VR Bangers is a 100% VR-focused site and one of the first in the area, so it’s no surprise that they’re among the best. You’re also not likely to get tired of their content for two main reasons:

They have a huge variety of categories with numerous titles in each one
Their content is frequently updated, with usually two or three new scenes per week at least

Plus, the newly added scenes are always super-high quality, even featuring some 6K-resolution videos. There’s also a nice blend of conventional one-on-one content as well as multiple-partner scenes. Adding to the overall excellent variety is a choice of 180- or 360-degree viewpoints.

Like most sites, you can opt for a monthly, yearly, or even lifetime package, with a standard price range compared to other VR sites.

One bonus is that you get access to a VR porn game no matter which tier you buy.

The only major downside applies to iPhone users—if you want to use your phone, you’ll be out of luck as the site is currently only Android-compatible right now.

Pros

Tons of categories
A variety of perspectives
Includes porn games
Both 1-on-1 and threesomes, etc.

Cons

Android-only compatibility
Not teledildonic supported

Compatible With

Oculus Rift/RiftS
Oculus Go
Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
HTC Vive
Gear VR
Microsoft MR
Daydream
Android
iOS

2. VRPorn.com

VR Porn probably has one of the most valuable domain names in the VR porn space, for obvious reason. However you find yourself at this URL, you’ll likely be happy, as VR Porn is one of the top VR porn aggregators around.

What’s an aggregator? It simply means that they host VR porn content from a number of VR porn producers. Think PornHub rather than an individual producer like Brazzers or, in the VR space, VR Bangers.

Two positives of VR Porn: you get tons of content since it’s an aggregator, so it’s hard to get bored, and there are also VR porn games available.

In addition to having a ton of niches and categories—something for everyone—new videos are uploaded constantly, meaning it’s unlikely you’ll run out of top-quality VR porn content.One downside to VR Porn is that its user interface is a bit lacking compared to many other VR porn sites reviewed here.

Pros

Huge array of content
Lots of categories
Porn games available to play

Cons

Short previews
Subpar user interface

Compatible With

Meta Quest 2
Oculus Go
Oculus Quest/Quest 2
Playstation VR
HTC Vive
Gear VR
Microsoft MR
Rift S

3. VRConk

VRConk is all about VR (virtual reality) porn and nothing else. Their niche is cosplay and parody videos, so if that’s your thing, you’re definitely in the right place.

You’re not likely to get tired of their site for two main reasons:

They have high-quality content that’s getting released weekly
They have high production value, meaning top pornstars, unique locations, and major fantasy vibes (cosplay and parodies)

So long as you appreciate the niche that VRConk operates in (cosplay, parodies, fun content in general), you’ll likely feel like you get your money’s worth with them. 

After all, you’re getting all the best elements of VR porn (with the exception of teledildonics): up to 8k, downloadable, binaural audio, and compatible with just about everything (VR headsets and phone OS’s). 

If you’re up for commitment, you can get a free year when you sign up for a year with VR Conk. 

This is a solid deal as it then only comes out to about $8.33 per month. You could also go for a lifetime membership at $250 (by comparison, this would work out to about $10.50 a month for two years, then free for life).

Now let’s take a look at some of the many ways VRConk is an industry leader in its own right.

Pros

Tons of categories
Streaming and downloading options
Weekly updates
Binaural ASMR audio
180 and 360 degree immersion

Cons

No teledildonics
Limited bundles

Compatible With

Quest
Quest 2 Go
Rift S
PSVR
HTC Vive Pro
Gear VR
Microsoft MR

4. BaDoink VR

BaDoink VR is another one of the premier VR porn sites, which makes sense as it’s one of the longest running. Some older content is in lower resolution, but all the new and recent uploads are 5K (or even higher).

BaDoink scores points for having one of the easiest sites to navigate, making it a breeze to make your way through their huge library of content. Making use of their sorting options, filters, and tags means that you can get to exactly what you want in no time—and hey, sometimes you’re trying to get in a quick sesh, let’s be honest.

Another big bonus is access to their other affiliated sites, like VRCosplayX, for example (a BDSM focused site). This really helps boost the overall value of your subscription.

When it comes to buying that subscription, however, you might need to spend a few minutes figuring out how you want to do it.

First, there’s only credit card or PayPal, so you’ll be out of luck if you were hoping to pay by Bitcoin or an alternative method.

Second, the pricing is a little weird—while you can get a 3-day trial for just $1 (cool, right?), you end up paying more if you actually sign up (ehh, actually kind of lame).

Pros

Mainly high-quality (5K) content
User-friendly site
Sister-site access
Tons of exclusive content

Cons

Be careful when it comes to billing
Credit card / PayPal only

Compatible With

Oculus Rift/RiftS
Oculus Go
Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
HTC Vive
Gear VR
Microsoft MR
Daydream
Cardboard

5. Virtual Real Porn

Virtual Real Porn is another one of the most user-friendly sites, which is always a big plus. They also have one of the largest libraries with over 400 scenes.

In addition to the usual array of categories, there are also some fetish ones like for foot fetish types—yeah, we’re looking at you, Quentin Tarantino.

You also won’t likely have to worry about your VR headset’s compatibility with Virtual Real Porn—the site supports Vive, Oculus, Gear VR, and all the most popular headsets.

There’s even a cool feature that remembers your preferred headset—so, tell them yours is Oculus and now they’ll only show Oculus-compatible content.

As with BaDoink VR, Virtual Real Porn wins major points for its user-friendly site. Since they store your settings, it’s extra easy to find videos that suit your preferences. Plus, movies come with a recommended viewing position, making things even easier.

For the moment, the content is largely 180-degree 4K videos, but they’re starting to expand to content with a wider field-of-view. This kind of innovation is promising as it means they’re committed to keeping up with the rest of the pack.

The biggest downside is that there’s no free trial option. Somewhat making up for this, though, is a relatively inexpensive 5-day trial. There’s also a streaming-only subscription that comes in at a cheaper price than the regular subscription that gives you access to all their scenes.

Pros

Super user-friendly site
Preferences are saved
Works with most of the popular headsets
Overall one of the best bang-for-your-buck sites (see what we did there?)

Cons

No free trial option
No sister-site access

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

6. KinkVR

If you’re on the kinkier side—especially the more extreme kinky side—you can fully embrace it with KinkVR. The site is loaded with hardcore BDSM, and you’ll find some of the most popular porn stars in not only fetish porn but mainstream porn as well.

There are a huge number of categories, so you should be well covered no matter what your kink or kinks are. All the BDSM mainstays are here: bondage, master/slave, torture, etc.

Although the site has a much smaller content library than many sites reviewed here, every single video is exclusive, helping boost the overall value. And helping offset this smaller library is the addition of two new scenes per week, always shot in 4 or 5K.

Another big plus for KinkVR is its low pricing—monthly passes come in around ten bucks and a yearly membership means even more savings at less than $100.

As with all these sites, there’s one thing that holds back KinkVR from being truly excellent, and that is its slow download speeds, which can be a major boner-killer (literally).

Pros

Perfect for all you kink-lords (and queens) out there
Tons of exclusive, super-extreme content
Cheap compared to other sites
Emphasis on VR immersion

Cons

Smaller content library
Sluggish downloading

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS

7. SexLikeReal

SexLikeReal isn’t its own studio but an aggregator—that is, it compiles scenes from multiple studios.

On the plus side, this means that they have a huge variety of VR content. As you might expect, there are lots of categories and these are conveniently sortable by resolution, softcore/hardcore, teledildonic-supported, and other features.

This is also one of the few sites to feature livestreaming VR content, which is still somewhat of a rarity while the technology gains traction.

SexLikeReal also scores major points for its bevy of super-high-quality stuff, even up to 6K. For porn connoisseurs after more of a cinematic experience, they also have hour-long videos. And for the guy trying to squeeze one out before Econ 101, there are ten-minute scenes as well, so there’s really something for everyone and every situation with SexLikeReal.

Another perk of this aggregator is their flexibility in terms of accessing content. You can opt for pay-per-view or choose to subscribe. Although an expensive site relative to most, SexLikeReal does offer a lot of value.

Porn enthusiasts who might hanker for exclusive content will be a little disappointed in that respect. Many of their scenes can be had for cheaper elsewhere, but SexLikeReal does provide a convenient “one-stop-shop” for VR content.

Pros

Literally thousands of VR videos
Pay-per-view or subscription
Extensive weekly updates
Livestreaming VR content

Cons

Quite pricy relative to other sites
Mostly non-exclusive content

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard

8. PornHubVR

Everyone knows PornHub as it’s the world’s largest and most name-dropped porn site. As you might expect, they’ve been working to stay up with the latest in VR offerings.

While VR was formerly an exclusive feature of their premium package, PornHub has since started offering free VR content. One drawback with these is that you’ll have ads unless you pony up the cash for the premium membership (the ads aren’t all that bad, though).

Unlike VR Bangers, PornHub works with both iOS and Android phones, making this a more accessible option. Plus, you can count on the same interface that you’re used to with the original PornHub.

Compared to an aggregator like SexLikeReal, however, or even other standard VR sites, Pornhub VR does lack in variety and overall number of videos. Plus, some viewers report perspective issues while streaming, so it’s probably best to take the time to download what you watch.

Pros

Fewer ads than many sites
Good selection of free content
Both Android and iOS compatible

Cons

Weaker selection than many sites
Occasional perspective issues

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

9. NaughtyAmericaVR

NaughtyAmericaVR takes advantage of their status as one of the best studios out there to deliver high-quality VR content. For exclusive-hungry viewers, they have more than 400 exclusive scenes, with many of them coming in at over forty minutes!

In addition, their scenes—of which there are at least two new ones per week—are usually filmed with the biggest names in porn, like Aidra Fox and Adriana Chechik.

Plus, you get to appreciate them in either 4 or 5K, with all the newer content shot in 5K. Unfortunately, the high quality does come with a cost—slow download speeds. A nice feature that somewhat offsets this issue is the inclusion of high-res photos.

Another nice aspect of NaughtyAmericaVR is the ability to chip in extra money for access to seven sister sites (the caveat being you must purchase a twelve-month subscription). There’s also an impressive flexibility in how you can purchase your subscription, like using Bitcoin or even giving up unused gift cards!

Perhaps the most frustrating drawback to NaughtyAmericaVR is their site’s poor user friendliness. Finding your exact preference can take a while compared to other sites, but admittedly they help make up for it with such top-tier content.

Pros

Tons of 5K scenes
The biggest names in porn
Lots of VR categories and exclusive content
A number of payment options

Cons

Sluggish downloading
Not the most user-friendly site

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

10. StasyQ VR

StasyQ VR is a pleasant change of pace from the usual steady stream of hardcore videos. You can think of their site instead like a private strip club.

Not any strip club though—a very high-end one, as they only select the most gorgeous models.

Although you won’t get to see any intercourse, StasyQ VR offers a unique, more intimate experience. This is in large part thanks to the binaural sound they offer, which enhances the already-more-intimate feel of VR porn to begin with.

One downside, in addition to their relatively small library, is the fact that StasyQ costs about the same as regular hardcore VR sites. It’s more forgivable, though, when you consider their super-high production value.

Pros

A nice softcore option
Stunning models
Elegant aesthetic
High-quality (binaural) sound

Cons

No intercourse
Small library

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard

11. VRB Gay

There aren’t a ton of gay-only VR sites, so VRB Gay wins points for that alone. It’s also a sister site to VR Bangers, so it makes sense that the production quality is similarly elite.

Unfortunately, you can’t get a package for both VR Gay and VR Bangers, as you might expect, which might disappoint some bisexuals out there. Another downside is that the catalog is relatively small, with fewer than 100 videos.

Making up for this shortage in scenes, though, is an emphasis on extreme quality and content featuring some of the most notable models around.

Like its sister site, VR Bangers, VRB Gay is user friendly, with plenty of filters for quickly finding what you’re into. Another nice touch is the fact that videos are 2D-friendly, meaning you can still benefit from their high-quality content if you don’t happen to have your headset with you—and hey, who hasn’t gotten off away from home base?

Pros

Only super-high-quality content
Very user-friendly site

Cons

Small library
Not teledildonic supported

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

12. WetVR

WetVR is from the Tiny4K studio, which made a name for itself with high-quality videos. You can thus expect the same insistence on high-res video from this site.

A downside of that, though, is that it may not be as suitable for people with weaker internet speeds or lack of storage for downloading video.

You might also be frustrated that there’s no video preview because you could end up downloading a video that you wouldn’t have if you had gotten a preview first. On the plus side, their download speeds tend to be good as long as your internet is.

All around though, WetVR offers super-high-quality content with household—well, maybe frat-household—names. Nothing is extreme hardcore, but it’s all tasteful and a must for anyone who loves to see their favorite porn stars slathered in oil.

Pros

Best newcomer
Strong industry ties
Good download speeds

Cons

No video previews
5K only

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

13. Dark Room VR

Dark Room VR offers a more authentic experience with their content. You won’t find all that many bleach-blonde actresses sporting fake smiles and moans.

Instead, Dark Room VR promises more realistic scenes with high production value. They also feature some of the most gorgeous European models.

Another big perk to Dark Room VR is their free previews, which allow you to make a better call on whether you want to shell out for a subscription. Plus, you can download and stream their videos at different resolutions, so if you’re having trouble with streaming or download speeds you can simply dial it down.

A high-quality site overall, two small downsides to Dark Room VR are its lack of crypto payment and relatively small library compared to other sites.

Pros

More realistic productions
100% exclusive content
Free previews
Download at different resolutions

Cons

No crypto payments
Smaller library

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

14. 18VR

A sister site of BaDoink VR, 18VR offers similarly top-tier quality. This is a site to throw on your shortlist if you’re into nasty, slutty girls. There are lesbian, anal, threesome, even gangbang videos.

The quality is all POV, 5K, and featuring binaural audio plus a full 360-degree perspective. Even better, their videos work with almost all manner of VR headsets and toys.

One downside, as with other 5K-only sites, is that you may have issues if you’re experiencing slow internet speeds or lack a lot of space for higher-quality downloads.

Pros

Videos compatible with all VR devices
Free Google Cardboard included
One free video download

Cons

Exclusively 5K videos

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

15. Wankz VR

Wankz VR is a great site for beginners as there is helpful content such as tutorials and a user community that provides useful feedback.

Wankz VR also wins points for its ease-of-use, especially on mobile. They also are on the forefront of innovation in terms of teledildonics, so you can enjoy nearly two hundred scenes synced up to your preferred sex toy.

While the site does accept a solid variety of payment options, the lifetime membership is quite costly compared to other sites. Plus, certain categories remain unavailable with the regular subscription options, which is honestly annoying.

Pros

Huge selection
Relatively low cost
Free previews
Lots of teledildonic-supported scenes

Cons

Requires lifetime subscription to access sister sites
Lifetime subscription is pricy

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
iOS
Android

16. MILF VR

MILF VR is one of the top VR sites for mature content. If that’s your thing, you don’t really need to look any further.

It’s a premium site too in that it offers up to 8K resolution on select videos. There’s also a streaming option in case you’d rather stream than download.

Another nice feature is that you gain access to some fourteen other VR sites, which will help keep you busy should you want to venture away from all those MILFs.

One drawback of MILF VR is its library featuring a lot of remastered videos. Even though they’ve been “remastered,” the quality won’t quite be the same as with the more recentlyshot content.

Pros

Super-high-quality videos
Access to a bunch of VR sister sites
Nearly 200 original videos

Cons

Many of the videos are older remastered ones
Some of the actresses are rather young

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

17. Virtual Taboo

Virtual Taboo ranks among our top overall sites for its impressive quality and staying on the cusp of VR porn innovations like 7K resolution at 60fps, binaural audio, and 180-degree POVs.

All these features make Virtual Taboo among the most immersive experiences. It’s also very reasonably priced considering how high the overall value is.

One downside, however, is that your subscription is only good for content on the Virtual Taboo site. But while you won’t get other content, you’re likely to be satisfied with theirs given their consistent high-quality content and three weekly updates.

Pros

Super-high-quality videos
Frequent updates
Unlimited streaming

Cons

No sister site-content

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

18. VRCosplayX

If you’re the kind of person who plans on going to Comic-Con every year, you’re probably going to appreciate what you’ll find at VRCosplayX. They really stick to their niche, so this site will only be for you if you’re into cosplay porn.

If so, you’re going to love the highly immersive VR experience that they deliver. As part of the BaDoink VR umbrella, you not only get access to BaDoink but can also count on the same high production value.

Unfortunately, VRCosplayX loses some points for maxing out at 5K, having a relatively small library, and the inability to save favorites—honestly, it seems like it would be such an easy feature to incorporate!

Pros

Free Google Cardboard included
Access to BaDoink VR
Relatively inexpensive

Cons

Maxes out at 5K
Limited number of scenes
Can’t save favorites

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

19. VR Latina

Last but not least, VR Latina offers some incredible Latinas like Veronica Leal, brought to life through the magic of VR. This site has high-quality 5K content as well, plus reasonable pricing.

The ability to purchase a single video for $2.99 as a tester before subscribing is a nice feature. In our humble opinion, more sites should offer free or inexpensive tester videos like this so would-be subscribers really know what they’re paying for.

Something that may detract from the experience is that the scenes tend to be in Spanish. So, if you don’t know Spanish and care about the dialogue, you’ll probably feel like you’re missing out. But hey, talk about a creative way to learn Spanish, right?

Another small downside is the relatively small library that VR Latina offers. Given that this is a niche site, though, it’s understandable.

Pros

High-quality 5K content
Stunning Latina actresses
Reasonable pricing

Cons

Relatively small library
Mainly Spanish dialogue

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard
iOS
Android

Our ranking criteria

Here are the criteria that we kept in mind for our reviews of these different VR porn sites, so it’s helpful for you to understand them.

Overall selection

You need to factor in quantity and quality of the site’s scenes.

Oftentimes sites charge around the same amount, but one might have only a tenth of the video library that the other has. The other site, however, might have ten times the production value.

So, it depends on what appeals to you most: quantity, or quality? Ideally, you can find a site that has both.

Compatibility

What VR device(s) do you have? Will it work with the content (or most of the content) on a given site? It’s best to do your research to ensure that your headset will be compatible and, while you’re at it, that your smartphone operating system will be as well.

Price

VR Porn is a premium experience and, as such, it carries a premium in terms of cost. There’s really no way of getting around it. That said, you can aim for sites that will bundle content with sister sites or opt for an aggregator to maximize the content you get.

Also, if you go with a lifetime subscription, you probably want to stick to well-established studios so you don’t end up losing out on money (and new content) down the road.

Resolution

VR quality is not necessarily the same quality as you get on your TV. It’s still a fairly new technology, after all (at least in its most current form).

4K is the new standard, with some sites offering up to 8K. This carries a premium, however, in terms of cost, so you’ll have to decide if it’s worth it to you.

Wrapping up

If you’re ready to enter the brave new world of VR porn, you’ll have a good head start with this guide. Don’t be afraid to take a little time before you invest your money into a subscription, particularly an annual or lifetime one.

Take account of the various factors above to ensure you settle on something that you’ll be plenty happy with. After all, why compromise that special alone time?

Either way, though, you’ll be in good shape with the high-quality offerings from these sites.

4. BaDoink VR

BaDoink VR is another one of the premier VR porn sites, which makes sense as it’s one of the longest running. Some older content is in lower resolution, but all the new and recent uploads are 5K (or even higher).

BaDoink scores points for having one of the easiest sites to navigate, making it a breeze to make your way through their huge library of content. Making use of their sorting options, filters, and tags means that you can get to exactly what you want in no time—and hey, sometimes you’re trying to get in a quick sesh, let’s be honest.

Another big bonus is access to their other affiliated sites, like VRCosplayX, for example (a BDSM focused site). This really helps boost the overall value of your subscription.

When it comes to buying that subscription, however, you might need to spend a few minutes figuring out how you want to do it.

First, there’s only credit card or PayPal, so you’ll be out of luck if you were hoping to pay by Bitcoin or an alternative method.

Second, the pricing is a little weird—while you can get a 3-day trial for just $1 (cool, right?), you end up paying more if you actually sign up (ehh, actually kind of lame).

Pros

Mainly high-quality (5K) content
User-friendly site
Sister-site access
Tons of exclusive content

Cons

Be careful when it comes to billing

5. Virtual Real Porn

Virtual Real Porn is another one of the most user-friendly sites, which is always a big plus. They also have one of the largest libraries with over 400 scenes.

In addition to the usual array of categories, there are also some fetish ones like for foot fetish types—yeah, we’re looking at you, Quentin Tarantino.

You also won’t likely have to worry about your VR headset’s compatibility with Virtual Real Porn—the site supports Vive, Oculus, Gear VR, and all the most popular headsets.

There’s even a cool feature that remembers your preferred headset—so, tell them yours is Oculus and now they’ll only show Oculus-compatible content.

As with BaDoink VR, Virtual Real Porn wins major points for its user-friendly site. Since they store your settings, it’s extra easy to find videos that suit your preferences. Plus, movies come with a recommended viewing position, making things even easier.

For the moment, the content is largely 180-degree 4K videos, but they’re starting to expand to content with a wider field-of-view. This kind of innovation is promising as it means they’re committed to keeping up with the rest of the pack.

The biggest downside is that there’s no free trial option. Somewhat making up for this, though, is a relatively inexpensive 5-day trial. There’s also a streaming-only subscription that comes in at a cheaper price than the regular subscription that gives you access to all their scenes.

Pros

Super user-friendly site
Preferences are saved
Works with most of the popular headsets
Overall one of the best bang-for-your-buck sites (see what we did there?)

Cons

No free trial option
No sister-site access

6. KinkVR

If you’re on the kinkier side—especially the more extreme kinky side—you can fully embrace it with KinkVR. The site is loaded with hardcore BDSM, and you’ll find some of the most popular porn stars in not only fetish porn but mainstream porn as well.

There are a huge number of categories, so you should be well covered no matter what your kink or kinks are. All the BDSM mainstays are here: bondage, master/slave, torture, etc.

Although the site has a much smaller content library than many sites reviewed here, every single video is exclusive, helping boost the overall value. And helping offset this smaller library is the addition of two new scenes per week, always shot in 4 or 5K.

Another big plus for KinkVR is its low pricing—monthly passes come in around ten bucks and a yearly membership means even more savings at less than $100.

As with all these sites, there’s one thing that holds back KinkVR from being truly excellent, and that is its slow download speeds, which can be a major boner-killer (literally).

Pros

Perfect for all you kink-lords (and queens) out there
Tons of exclusive, super-extreme content
Cheap compared to other sites
Emphasis on VR immersion

Cons

Smaller content library
Sluggish downloading

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2

7. SexLikeReal

SexLikeReal isn’t its own studio but an aggregator—that is, it compiles scenes from multiple studios.

On the plus side, this means that they have a huge variety of VR content. As you might expect, there are lots of categories and these are conveniently sortable by resolution, softcore/hardcore, teledildonic-supported, and other features.

This is also one of the few sites to feature livestreaming VR content, which is still somewhat of a rarity while the technology gains traction.

SexLikeReal also scores major points for its bevy of super-high-quality stuff, even up to 6K. For porn connoisseurs after more of a cinematic experience, they also have hour-long videos. And for the guy trying to squeeze one out before Econ 101, there are ten-minute scenes as well, so there’s really something for everyone and every situation with SexLikeReal.

Another perk of this aggregator is their flexibility in terms of accessing content. You can opt for pay-per-view or choose to subscribe. Although an expensive site relative to most, SexLikeReal does offer a lot of value.

Porn enthusiasts who might hanker for exclusive content will be a little disappointed in that respect. Many of their scenes can be had for cheaper elsewhere, but SexLikeReal does provide a convenient “one-stop-shop” for VR content.

Pros

Literally thousands of VR videos
Pay-per-view or subscription
Extensive weekly updates
Livestreaming VR content

Cons

Quite pricy relative to other sites
Mostly non-exclusive content

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR

8. PornHubVR

Everyone knows PornHub as it’s the world’s largest and most name-dropped porn site. As you might expect, they’ve been working to stay up with the latest in VR offerings.

While VR was formerly an exclusive feature of their premium package, PornHub has since started offering free VR content. One drawback with these is that you’ll have ads unless you pony up the cash for the premium membership (the ads aren’t all that bad, though).

Unlike VR Bangers, PornHub works with both iOS and Android phones, making this a more accessible option. Plus, you can count on the same interface that you’re used to with the original PornHub.

Compared to an aggregator like SexLikeReal, however, or even other standard VR sites, Pornhub VR does lack in variety and overall number of videos. Plus, some viewers report perspective issues while streaming, so it’s probably best to take the time to download what you watch.

Pros

Fewer ads than many sites
Good selection of free content
Both Android and iOS compatible

Cons

Weaker selection than many sites
Occasional perspective issues

9. NaughtyAmericaVR

NaughtyAmericaVR takes advantage of their status as one of the best studios out there to deliver high-quality VR content. For exclusive-hungry viewers, they have more than 400 exclusive scenes, with many of them coming in at over forty minutes!

In addition, their scenes—of which there are at least two new ones per week—are usually filmed with the biggest names in porn, like Aidra Fox and Adriana Chechik.

Plus, you get to appreciate them in either 4 or 5K, with all the newer content shot in 5K. Unfortunately, the high quality does come with a cost—slow download speeds. A nice feature that somewhat offsets this issue is the inclusion of high-res photos.

Another nice aspect of NaughtyAmericaVR is the ability to chip in extra money for access to seven sister sites (the caveat being you must purchase a twelve-month subscription). There’s also an impressive flexibility in how you can purchase your subscription, like using Bitcoin or even giving up unused gift cards!

Perhaps the most frustrating drawback to NaughtyAmericaVR is their site’s poor user friendliness. Finding your exact preference can take a while compared to other sites, but admittedly they help make up for it with such top-tier content.

Pros

Tons of 5K scenes
The biggest names in porn
Lots of VR categories and exclusive content
A number of payment options

Cons

Sluggish downloading
Not the most user-friendly site

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR

10. StasyQ VR

StasyQ VR is a pleasant change of pace from the usual steady stream of hardcore videos. You can think of their site instead like a private strip club.

Not any strip club though—a very high-end one, as they only select the most gorgeous models.

Although you won’t get to see any intercourse, StasyQ VR offers a unique, more intimate experience. This is in large part thanks to the binaural sound they offer, which enhances the already-more-intimate feel of VR porn to begin with.

One downside, in addition to their relatively small library, is the fact that StasyQ costs about the same as regular hardcore VR sites. It’s more forgivable, though, when you consider their super-high production value.

Pros

A nice softcore option
Stunning models
Elegant aesthetic
High-quality (binaural) sound

Cons

No intercourse
Small library

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR
Cardboard

11. VRB Gay

There aren’t a ton of gay-only VR sites, so VRB Gay wins points for that alone. It’s also a sister site to VR Bangers, so it makes sense that the production quality is similarly elite.

Unfortunately, you can’t get a package for both VR Gay and VR Bangers, as you might expect, which might disappoint some bisexuals out there. Another downside is that the catalog is relatively small, with fewer than 100 videos.

Making up for this shortage in scenes, though, is an emphasis on extreme quality and content featuring some of the most notable models around.

Like its sister site, VR Bangers, VRB Gay is user friendly, with plenty of filters for quickly finding what you’re into. Another nice touch is the fact that videos are 2D-friendly, meaning you can still benefit from their high-quality content if you don’t happen to have your headset with you—and hey, who hasn’t gotten off away from home base?

Pros

Only super-high-quality content
Very user-friendly site

Cons

Small library
Not teledildonic supported

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR
Gear VR

iOS
Android

12. WetVR

WetVR is from the Tiny4K studio, which made a name for itself with high-quality videos. You can thus expect the same insistence on high-res video from this site.

A downside of that, though, is that it may not be as suitable for people with weaker internet speeds or lack of storage for downloading video.

You might also be frustrated that there’s no video preview because you could end up downloading a video that you wouldn’t have if you had gotten a preview first. On the plus side, their download speeds tend to be good as long as your internet is.

All around though, WetVR offers super-high-quality content with household—well, maybe frat-household—names. Nothing is extreme hardcore, but it’s all tasteful and a must for anyone who loves to see their favorite porn stars slathered in oil.

Pros

Best newcomer
Strong industry ties
Good download speeds

Cons

No video previews
5K only

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR

iOS
Android

13. Dark Room VR

Dark Room VR offers a more authentic experience with their content. You won’t find all that many bleach-blonde actresses sporting fake smiles and moans.

Instead, Dark Room VR promises more realistic scenes with high production value. They also feature some of the most gorgeous European models.

Another big perk to Dark Room VR is their free previews, which allow you to make a better call on whether you want to shell out for a subscription. Plus, you can download and stream their videos at different resolutions, so if you’re having trouble with streaming or download speeds you can simply dial it down.

A high-quality site overall, two small downsides to Dark Room VR are its lack of crypto payment and relatively small library compared to other sites.

Pros

More realistic productions
100% exclusive content
Free previews
Download at different resolutions

Cons

No crypto payments
Smaller library

14. 18VR

A sister site of BaDoink VR, 18VR offers similarly top-tier quality. This is a site to throw on your shortlist if you’re into nasty, slutty girls. There are lesbian, anal, threesome, even gangbang videos.

The quality is all POV, 5K, and featuring binaural audio plus a full 360-degree perspective. Even better, their videos work with almost all manner of VR headsets and toys.

One downside, as with other 5K-only sites, is that you may have issues if you’re experiencing slow internet speeds or lack a lot of space for higher-quality downloads.

Pros

Videos compatible with all VR devices
Free Google Cardboard included
One free video download

Cons

Exclusively 5K videos

15. Wankz VR

Wankz VR is a great site for beginners as there is helpful content such as tutorials and a user community that provides useful feedback.

Wankz VR also wins points for its ease-of-use, especially on mobile. They also are on the forefront of innovation in terms of teledildonics, so you can enjoy nearly two hundred scenes synced up to your preferred sex toy.

While the site does accept a solid variety of payment options, the lifetime membership is quite costly compared to other sites. Plus, certain categories remain unavailable with the regular subscription options, which is honestly annoying.

Pros

Huge selection
Relatively low cost
Free previews
Lots of teledildonic-supported scenes

Cons

Requires lifetime subscription to access sister sites
Lifetime subscription is pricy

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2

16. MILF VR

MILF VR is one of the top VR sites for mature content. If that’s your thing, you don’t really need to look any further.

It’s a premium site too in that it offers up to 8K resolution on select videos. There’s also a streaming option in case you’d rather stream than download.

Another nice feature is that you gain access to some fourteen other VR sites, which will help keep you busy should you want to venture away from all those MILFs.

One drawback of MILF VR is its library featuring a lot of remastered videos. Even though they’ve been “remastered,” the quality won’t quite be the same as with the more recentlyshot content.

Pros

Super-high-quality videos
Access to a bunch of VR sister sites
Nearly 200 original videos

Cons

Many of the videos are older remastered ones
Some of the actresses are rather young

17. Virtual Taboo

Virtual Taboo ranks among our top overall sites for its impressive quality and staying on the cusp of VR porn innovations like 7K resolution at 60fps, binaural audio, and 180-degree POVs.

All these features make Virtual Taboo among the most immersive experiences. It’s also very reasonably priced considering how high the overall value is.

One downside, however, is that your subscription is only good for content on the Virtual Taboo site. But while you won’t get other content, you’re likely to be satisfied with theirs given their consistent high-quality content and three weekly updates.

Pros

Super-high-quality videos
Frequent updates
Unlimited streaming

Cons

No sister site-content

18. VRCosplayX

If you’re the kind of person who plans on going to Comic-Con every year, you’re probably going to appreciate what you’ll find at VRCosplayX. They really stick to their niche, so this site will only be for you if you’re into cosplay porn.

If so, you’re going to love the highly immersive VR experience that they deliver. As part of the BaDoink VR umbrella, you not only get access to BaDoink but can also count on the same high production value.

Unfortunately, VRCosplayX loses some points for maxing out at 5K, having a relatively small library, and the inability to save favorites—honestly, it seems like it would be such an easy feature to incorporate!

Pros

Free Google Cardboard included
Access to BaDoink VR
Relatively inexpensive

Cons

Maxes out at 5K
Limited number of scenes
Can’t save favorites

Compatible With

Oculus Quest/Quest 2
PSVR

19. VR Latina

Last but not least, VR Latina offers some incredible Latinas like Veronica Leal, brought to life through the magic of VR. This site has high-quality 5K content as well, plus reasonable pricing.

The ability to purchase a single video for $2.99 as a tester before subscribing is a nice feature. In our humble opinion, more sites should offer free or inexpensive tester videos like this so would-be subscribers really know what they’re paying for.

Something that may detract from the experience is that the scenes tend to be in Spanish. So, if you don’t know Spanish and care about the dialogue, you’ll probably feel like you’re missing out. But hey, talk about a creative way to learn Spanish, right?

Another small downside is the relatively small library that VR Latina offers. Given that this is a niche site, though, it’s understandable.

Pros

High-quality 5K content
Stunning Latina actresses
Reasonable pricing

Cons

Relatively small library
Mainly Spanish dialogue

Our ranking criteria

Here are the criteria that we kept in mind for our reviews of these different VR porn sites, so it’s helpful for you to understand them.

Overall selection

You need to factor in quantity and quality of the site’s scenes.

Oftentimes sites charge around the same amount, but one might have only a tenth of the video library that the other has. The other site, however, might have ten times the production value.

So, it depends on what appeals to you most: quantity, or quality? Ideally, you can find a site that has both.

Compatibility

What VR device(s) do you have? Will it work with the content (or most of the content) on a given site? It’s best to do your research to ensure that your headset will be compatible and, while you’re at it, that your smartphone operating system will be as well.

Price

VR Porn is a premium experience and, as such, it carries a premium in terms of cost. There’s really no way of getting around it. That said, you can aim for sites that will bundle content with sister sites or opt for an aggregator to maximize the content you get.

Also, if you go with a lifetime subscription, you probably want to stick to well-established studios so you don’t end up losing out on money (and new content) down the road.

Resolution

VR quality is not necessarily the same quality as you get on your TV. It’s still a fairly new technology, after all (at least in its most current form).

4K is the new standard, with some sites offering up to 8K. This carries a premium, however, in terms of cost, so you’ll have to decide if it’s worth it to you.

Wrapping up

If you’re ready to enter the brave new world of VR porn, you’ll have a good head start with this guide. Don’t be afraid to take a little time before you invest your money into a subscription, particularly an annual or lifetime one.

Take account of the various factors above to ensure you settle on something that you’ll be plenty happy with. After all, why compromise that special alone time?

Either way, though, you’ll be in good shape with the high-quality offerings from these sites.

When I was in theater classes at Columbia College Chicago back in the Pleistocene era (i.e., the late 1980s), certain reverse-snob assumptions came out from time to time about the Theatre School at DePaul (which had changed its moniker a few years earlier from the Goodman School of Drama). 

DePaul was, to us, the high-toned conservatory where students could be dismissed at the end of a term for what we assumed were capricious reasons. (The fact that several of my friends were people who had been cut from DePaul fed this picture of the Theatre School as a cutthroat elitist institution, in opposition to populist open-admissions Columbia.) They didn’t let their students work on projects away from the university during the school year, whereas we were openly encouraged to audition wherever we could. And, since Columbia’s theater department was headed by the late Second City legend Sheldon Patinkin, it was a given in our wired-for-righteousness twentysomething brains that if you really wanted to understand improv and comedy writing (even if you weren’t already taking classes at Second City), there was no better place to be than Columbia.

Times change, and now both Columbia College and DePaul have dedicated programs for comedy studies. Of course there are also a slew of training programs outside of the Second City leviathan, including recently reopened iO and Annoyance. 

MessFestWed-Sat 1/11-1/14: first show 5 PM nightly, last show 11 PM, Annoyance Theatre, 851 W. Belmont, theannoyance.com, $5 per show (buy tickets to five shows and get one free), $50 four-day pass

The latter has teamed up with DePaul’s comedy arts program to produce MessFest 2023, a four-night extravaganza of student-created sketch, stand-up, improv, music, and more, opening this Wednesday and taking over the entire Annoyance complex on West Belmont through Sunday. It’s part of an ongoing partnership between DePaul and the Annoyance; in spring and fall of 2022, students presented work in progress through a residency at the Annoyance. (They also worked open mikes at the Cornservatory and Bughouse.)

It’s far from a seat-of-the-pants, anything-goes anarchic approach. The comedy arts program at DePaul, headed by Liz Joynt Sandberg, brings in a wide range of students in writing, performance, directing, technical production, arts management, and dramaturgy. To once again upend assumptions, dramaturgy isn’t just about working with new playwrights or researching old ones. As MessFest dramaturg Josephine Clarke tells me, “Comedians do a lot of dramaturgy. They just don’t call it that.” 

I spoke to Clarke (full disclosure: she was a student in my Dramatic Criticism class at DePaul last spring) and her classmates in early November, where I also watched a rehearsal for a MessFest sketch show under the direction of Jeff Bouthiette, musical director and composer for several shows at Second City (including the most recent mainstage, Do the Right Thing, No Worries If Not) and elsewhere. And Clarke’s assertion seems borne out by the way the rehearsal process I saw incorporated playfulness without losing sight of structural principles. 

The students under Bouthiette’s direction ran through a series of short sketches, including one where an improbable number of people began filling up an automobile (a reverse clown car, if you will). Discussions about how to vary the pace and variety (including concerns about too many static scenes featuring two people in chairs) wouldn’t have felt out of place in a dramaturgical discussion on showing, not telling, in a scene from a “straight” play. 

Sandberg, who took over the DePaul comedy arts program just ahead of the 2020 pandemic shutdown, notes that she’s always been interested in “the academic study of comedy, but specifically sort of this really unique combination of applied improv and applied comedy—theory as well as practice.” 

The first MessFest went up in fall of 2021 at the Theatre School. But going outside to the Annoyance was something Sandberg (who performs with the LGBTQ+ variety show Baby Wine, as well as at other comedy venues) always had in the back of her mind. 

“Before I even started my [DePaul] job, I set three big goals for myself,” she says. “And one of them was to develop a partnership for students with the Annoyance. In my opinion, in the current landscape of Chicago comedy, the Annoyance is just one of the most important spaces that we have for really developing and enabling new talent in the city. I also think that folks that are continuing to perform at the Annoyance are people who are really alive and curious as artists. I think that’s so important for the students to experience and to be in community with.”

During the group meeting in November before the students dispersed into separate rehearsals, Sandberg reminded them, “This is not the time to chill out.” And, in conversations with other students, it’s apparent that nobody is treating this comedy festival lightly, no matter how fun the generative process is.

Lazarus Howell, who is appearing in the Afrofuturist sketch show Black Stardust 3023 (playing Wednesday and Friday at 9 PM), notes that the spring residency at Annoyance was “MessFest 1.5. I think we did nine weeks of weekly 90-minute shows. The first six of them were variety shows and the rest were show-shows, with titles and names and whatnot. It was very stressful at the time, but I think it was really important for me. Because most of the shows were things that had been done before [in class], but I liked the idea of doing it in a different setting and working on it so we were crafting it into a better piece.”

Rockie Wenrich, a vet of the first MessFest in 2021, notes that the idea of an anchor sketch show, like the one directed this year by Bouthiette, was a feature of the first festival. “But this one is different because now we’re writing songs,” they note. Several of the students are also playing instruments alongside recorded tracks. In addition to the Annoyance residency, the students previewed material on campus for their peers with informal Friday-night performances. “The rewriting process is super crazy. Working in comedy is so much more fast-paced,” Wenrich notes, adding that “a lot of people who work on the technical side in theater are used to being able to map out the whole process, and with comedy, everything is devised.”

Dwight Bellisimo is serving as tech director for MessFest, and he notes that a big part of his job is to “teach everybody the skills they need to get their show into the Annoyance and not make my life crazy by me having to design all these shows. I see my job as a liaison between what happens here and then helping it manifest in the Annoyance.” Teaching the various shows how to set up their own sound cues is part of that process, he notes. “I feel like even in the more traditional theatrical world, tech speaks its own language, and actors have no idea what the hell is going on in the tech world. Vocabulary is a big barrier between where I work and where the comedians work.”

Among the dozens of separate offerings in MessFest are intriguing titles such as The Roast of No Longer Topical Celebrities, hosted by Audrey Gold (Wednesday 11 PM); Looking for a Third, a comedy drag show where the stars attempt to pick up “a third and final member of their nuclear drag family” (Thursday 11 PM); Paper Bag Puppet-Prov, where contestants have to create an original show (with puppets, of course) a la the Food Network’s Chopped (Friday 6:30 PM); and City Wide Improv, featuring improv teams from colleges across the city (Saturday 5 PM). In a way, it feels like this year’s MessFest is taking the place of the old Chicago Sketch Comedy Festival, which also used to run in January.

For Sandberg, MessFest is more than a showcase of diverse student talents. She’s partnering with a firm to write a case study for the lessons this process holds for corporations.

“I really think that a lot of what the students are doing neatly and sort of distinctly addresses a lot of the grievances that large institutions are facing in trying to navigate nonhierarchical leadership demands or facing a huge workforce of millennial and Gen Z folks who are just no longer up for this very formal, very hierarchical structure of collaboration,” says Sandberg. “That’s not what they’re curious about. So we’re studying it and trying to understand what it is about the way that these young folks are working together that enables them to be so extremely productive, so iterative, so sort of flexible and responsive to problems while also producing really high-quality work.”
