Games Like CueVR

Stay in VR — and still hear what the person next to you is saying.

If you're deaf or hard of hearing, being in a headset can cut you off from the people right there in the room. Someone wants to tell you something, and suddenly you're pulling the headset off just to catch a sentence. CueVR fixes that.

A person beside you holds a push-to-talk key and speaks into your PC's microphone. CueVR transcribes their speech on-device and shows it as clean captions floating in your field of view, in real time — so a family member, friend, or helper can talk to you and you simply read it, without ever leaving the experience.

What CueVR does CueVR captions a single microphone on your PC, one speaker at a time, controlled by push-to-talk. It's built for in-person, same-room communication — a direct line from the person next to you into your headset. (It is not an in-game voice-chat transcriber and does not caption other players' voices.)

Built for accessibility, on purpose CueVR began as a tool for one deaf player who didn't want VR to mean missing what the people around them said. Every part of it is shaped around being readable and usable from inside a headset.

Who it's for Deaf and hard-of-hearing VR users who want to stay immersed and stay connected to the people physically around them — and anyone who wants a private, offline way to read what's being said to them in the headset.
