Gather your party from wherever they are in the world and venture forth on an epic D&D adventure!

Fans have great memories of meeting around the kitchen table for Dungeons & Dragons adventures. In D&D in AltspaceVR, you can have that same feeling by getting together with your friends around a 3D tabletop in virtual reality and starting a campaign.

AltspaceVR* allows multiple adventurers and spectators to meet together and interact with and around the game by moving, talking, gesturing, and seeing each other’s reactions as if in the same room.

How do I get started in D&D in VR?

Jump into the Tavern, an AltspaceVR fantasy gathering place, and check out D&D now! Sign in with your existing AltspaceVR account or sign up for a new account. Go to the D&D page, click "start a campaign" and follow the instructions.

You can check posted events for a hosted D&D session you can join. Or try Looking for a Party to find fellow adventurers, or start your own campaign.

 

I am new to VR, what do I need to know?

D&D is best experienced in full VR, which requires a head mounted display such as Oculus Rift DK2 or HTC Vive. More information about AltspaceVR supported gear and set up can be found on the Learn tab at the top of the altvr.com web site. There is also Support, if needed.

What if I do not have any VR gear?

While not as immersive as full VR, you can experience AltspaceVR and play D&D using your existing computer monitor. AltspaceVR works with most recent Windows and Mac OS X computers.
