VRidge lets you play Oculus and Vive games on your Google Cardboard

Don’t have the cash to spring for an Oculus Rift or a HTC Vive? this nifty bit of software will allow you to experience the games for those two platforms on your Google Cardboard.

Called VRidge, the software comes in two parts; an Android app and a PC Client, which will work hand in hand to emulate the Oculus/Vive games on your smartphone. Your PC will be doing all the work while your phone simply streams the content and your head movements. The whole idea of it is to allow you access to said content without having to nuke your wallet with an expensive VR headset.

But it still has some limitations though. Aside from potential hardware issues where it doesn’t play nice with the software, VRidge is still in beta, and its not designed to be a total replacement for a dedicated VR headset. The developer Riftcat, even advises against buying VR games just to play on the emulator. So at the end of the day, if you want the full VR experience on the Oculus or Vive, you will still need to grab the real deal.

However if you’re keen on trying it out, you can download the app here and the system requirements to run the emulator is here on their official site.
