Gorilla Tag
What is Gorilla Tag?
The official Steam description says Gorilla Tag’s movement uses only the player’s hands and arms: push off surfaces to jump and squeeze them with both hands to climb, without buttons, sticks, or teleportation. Its listed activities include chasing or escaping other players in tag and infection, parkour across trees and cliff faces, and spending time in a virtual jungle. Read the official Steam game description.
Modes and activities
Steam lists online tag and infection play, private rooms, and maps including Forest, Canyon, Mountain, and Beach; it also names additional activities such as Ghost Reactor, Hoverboard Racing, Monke Ball, Prop Hunt, and player-created maps. These are the activities and content labels stated on the official listing, not a promise about a particular player’s experience or session availability. See the official Steam listing.
The official Meta Quest listing describes Gorilla Tag as a multiplayer game and identifies supported player modes as sitting, standing, and roomscale. It also lists hand-and-arm locomotion, ropes, ziplines, swimming, hang gliders, hoverboards, ranked mode, and creator features including Share My Blocks and Virtual Stump. See the official Meta Quest listing.
Where it runs
- Native standalone Meta Quest: Meta’s official listing supports Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest 3, Meta Quest 3S, and Meta Quest Pro. This is the Quest store version; the listing identifies the supported headset models and does not establish a PC requirement for that native installation. Meta Quest Store listing.
- PCVR through Steam: Steam lists Gorilla Tag as “VR Only” and identifies SteamVR or Oculus PC in its VR support information. This is the PC edition, so a computer and a compatible PCVR setup are part of that form; it is not the same as installing the native Quest app. Steam listing.
- Other platforms: The official Gorilla Tag site links to its Meta Quest and Steam listings. No official source checked for this page confirmed a native Pico or console-VR edition, so those platforms are not listed here. Official Gorilla Tag site.
A Steam/PCVR copy can be used with a headset through a connected or streaming PC, but that does not make the Steam edition a native standalone Quest, Pico, or console application; Steam identifies this listing as the PC edition with SteamVR or Oculus PC support. Official Steam listing.
What to verify before playing
Choose the store form that matches your setup: Meta Quest for the native headset listing or Steam for the PCVR listing. The official site also says that Discord is its only official channel for game news, so use that channel for current announcements rather than relying on an old third-party post.
