RIDE IT. TRICK IT. MAKE IT YOURS! VMX BRINGS PHYSICAL BMX, MTB AND SCOOTER RIDING TO VR TODAY

Break Free Interactive’s gesture-driven VR sports experience is now available on Meta Quest, with players able to ride, trick, customise and compete across five locations.

October 2, 2026. Grab your ride and get ready to send it! Independent developer Break Free Interactive today celebrates the launch of VMX on Meta Quest 2 and Quest 3, bringing its physical, gesture-driven take on BMX, mountain bike and scooter riding to standalone VR. VMX is available now via the Meta Store for $14.99 / £11.99 / €13.99. 

VMX opens up its riding experience to Quest players, putting the controls directly into their hands. With custom physics, physical gesture-based tricks, multiplayer riding and a choice of BMX, MTB and scooters, VMX is built around the feeling of actually riding rather than simply pressing buttons to perform tricks.

At the heart of VMX is a custom VR control and physics system designed to make every movement part of the ride. Players control their bike through physical gestures, building momentum, finding their line, launching from ramps and performing tricks using their own movements.

Whether chasing a high score, learning a new trick or simply finding somewhere to ride with friends, VMX gives players the freedom to approach each session their own way.

FIVE PLACES. PLENTY OF WAYS TO RIDE.

VMX launches with five distinct locations, each offering its own setting for riding and tricking.

From the Under the Bridge Skatepark and Utah Desert Dirt Track to the Miami City Map, Docks/Harbour Map and a huge stadium featuring a megaramp and animated crowd, players can switch between different environments depending on how they want to ride.

Challenge yourself, practice in Free Ride or simply explore the parks with friends in multiplayer.

PUT YOUR OWN STYLE ON THE RIDE

The Workshop gives players plenty of ways to make VMX their own.

Grab a virtual spray can and customise your bike with colours, gradients and patterns, creating a setup that looks as individual as the way you ride. Players can also customise their character with a growing range of riding gear and clothing, including helmets, goggles, full-face helmets, snapbacks and beanies.

Earn points through gameplay and spend them on new gear as you build your rider's look.

RIDE TOGETHER

VMX is built to be enjoyed with friends, whether that's competing for the best score, practising tricks together or simply hanging out in a skatepark.

Multiplayer lets players explore the maps together, session their favourite spots and take on challenges, giving every ride the potential to become something different.

RIDE YOUR WAY

VR riding can be an intense experience, so VMX offers two different approaches to movement.

Comfort Mode is the default option, designed to provide a smoother experience and reduce motion discomfort while players learn the controls, explore the maps and develop their riding skills.

For experienced VR players looking for a more intense experience, Immersive Mode increases the sense of physical movement to bring players even closer to the ride.

RIDE BMX. RIDE MTB. RIDE SCOOTERS.

With three different types of ride, five locations, multiplayer and a physical control system built around gesture-based tricks, VMX gives players plenty of ways to hit the parks.

Whether you're a BMX rider looking to learn new lines, an MTB fan looking for somewhere to send it, or a scooter rider wanting to master a new trick, VMX puts the ride in your hands.

KEY FEATURES

Physical VR Riding - Custom physics and gesture-based controls put every movement in your hands.

Three Ways to Ride - Take on the parks with BMX bikes, mountain bikes or scooters.

Five Locations - Ride skateparks, dirt tracks, city streets, docks and a stadium megaramp.

The Workshop - Spray-paint your bike with colours, gradients and custom patterns.

RIDING HAS NEVER BEEN MORE REAL: VMX BRINGS BMX, MTB AND SCOOTER ACTION TO VR ON OCTOBER 2

Break Free Interactive’s immersive VR sports experience launches on Meta Quest 2, Quest 3 and PCVR headsets, putting physical riding, tricks and multiplayer competition in players’ hands

September 17, 2026. Independent developer Break Free Interactive announces that VMX will launch for VR on October 2, 2026, bringing BMX, mountain bike and scooter action to Meta Quest 2, Quest 3 and PCVR headsets.

Riding has never been more Real.

VMX puts the ride directly in players’ hands with advanced VR controls and a custom physics system designed to deliver precise, true-to-life handling. Tricks are performed through physical gestures, letting players find their line, build momentum, launch into the air and throw down tricks using their own movements.

Ride through five distinct maps, take on challenges, or simply find a spot and session it with friends. From an underground skatepark and desert dirt track to the streets of Miami, a docks warehouse skatepark, and a huge stadium featuring a megaramp and animated crowds, VMX gives players a variety of places to ride across BMX, mountain bikes and scooters.

PUT THE RIDE IN YOUR HANDS

VMX's custom physics system and gesture-based VR controls are at the heart of the experience. Rather than relying on traditional button combinations, players physically perform their tricks, creating a more immediate connection between rider and bike.

Whether practicing a new trick, searching for the perfect line or trying to land a high-scoring run, every movement becomes part of the ride.

MAKE IT YOUR OWN IN THE WORKSHOP

The Workshop is where players can customise both their ride and their rider. 

Create a bike that reflects your style with VMX's detailed spray-painting system, grabbing a spray can to apply colours, blend shades, create smooth gradients and experiment with custom patterns.

Players can also customise their character with a growing selection of clothing and riding gear, including helmets, goggles, full-face helmets, snapbacks and beanies. Earn points through gameplay and spend them in the in-game store to unlock new items.

RIDE TOGETHER

VMX is built for riding with friends. Multiplayer lets players explore maps together, session skateparks, practice tricks, take on challenges and compete for the best scores.

Whether it's a relaxed freeride session with friends or a head-to-head challenge, multiplayer gives players another way to experience VMX and find their flow together.

FIND YOUR FLOW

VR riding can be intense, so VMX includes Comfort Mode, the default setting designed to reduce motion discomfort and provide a smoother riding experience. It lets players spend more time exploring, practicing tricks and learning the parks at their own pace.

For experienced VR players looking for the full intensity of the sport, Immersive Mode takes the realism even further, delivering a more intense and physical riding experience designed to make players feel closer to the action. While Comfort Mode is recommended for most players, Immersive Mode is intended for experienced VR users who are comfortable with more intense movement.

RIDE YOUR WAY

With BMX bikes, mountain bikes and scooters, VMX gives players multiple ways to hit the parks and dirt tracks.

Take on challenges, master gesture-based tricks, customise your ride, build your look and ride alongside friends as VMX brings a new level of physicality to VR sports.

KEY FEATURES

Riding Has Never Been More Real - Advanced VR controls and custom physics deliver precise, true-to-life handling.

Ride BMX, MTB or Scooters - Choose your ride and hit five distinct maps across skateparks, dirt tracks, city streets and more. 

Gesture-Based Tricks - Perform tricks through physical movements rather than traditional button combinations.

Five Maps to Explore - Ride the underpass bridge skatepark, desert valley dirt track, Miami city skatepark, docks warehouse skatepark and the stadium megaramp. 

The Workshop - Customise your bike and character with detailed paint options and a growing selection of riding gear. 

Ride Together - Explore maps, session parks and compete with friends in multiplayer.

Make It Yours - Spray-paint your ride with colour blending, gradients and custom patterns, then customise your rider with a growing range of gear.

Find Your Flow - Choose Comfort Mode for a smoother VR experience, or Immersive Mode for a more intense, realistic ride recommended for experienced VR players.
