Available on Steam and Oculus Store for free, The Body VR is a short educational experience that takes you on a thrilling tour inside the human body.

Placing you directly into the bloodstream, this beautiful simulation will help you understand how the human body works down to the tiniest of detail.

Travelling through various parts of the human body, you’ll feel fully immersed as you get a clear perspective on how a cell works.

To make the experience even more informative, The Body VR is accompanied by a soothing voiceover commentary.
