  • VR technology has become a game changer in the game industry. VR game market has increased exponentially worldwide. The current study is designed to examine effects of VR game players' gender (male vs. female), types of VR games (solo game vs. multiplayer game), and the level of perceived virtual presence (low virtual presence vs. high virtual presence) on enjoyment and intention to replay. Study findings suggest that male players, after playing VR games, showed higher enjoyment and intention to replay VR games. In terms of types of VR games, multiplayer VR games lead to higher enjoyment intention to replay than solo play games. Finally, this study found that the high level of perceived virtual presence incur higher enjoyment and intention to replay than the low level of perceived virtual presence in playing VR games. Practical implications were discussed in the last section of this paper.

  • This study aimed to address whether the varying degree of screen speed in the context of a Virtual reality exergame will interact with users' intrinsic motivation in influencing user perceptions. Results from our experiment (N = 40), showed that screen speed and intrinsic motivation have significantly interacted in influencing players' feeling of flow, attitude, and intention to replay the game (i.e., the 7km/h and 9km/h speeds have induced more favorable user perceptions than the 5km/h speed). Further implications of the findings are discussed.
