Max Payne 2 VR
for Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne · by evilSheep · released 27 Sept 2026
A mod added to the existing PC game to enable VR. A dedicated VR mod built for this one game. These are normally the best experiences, because controls, menus and comfort were designed for VR rather than injected.

Setup notes
Release and scope
Release candidate. The latest rc.63 is a test prerelease; rc.59 is the earlier public RC. These are PCVR packages, not standalone Quest apps.
Installation
Extract the complete release ZIP with setup-files beside Max Payne 2 VR Setup.exe. Run the installer, select maxpayne2.exe, then start SteamVR and launch through Steam with MP2VR_FirstPerson. Use D3D Hardware T&L acceleration.
Limitations
The creator expects bugs in this old game. PSVR2 feedback uses an optional helper; the creator documents antivirus detections and a separate no-helper test build. Review that notice rather than bypassing quarantine. Other game builds are unverified.
