VRChat has become one of the most popular VR games of all time in a very short time period, Sure, VR has only been marketable for a short while, but nevertheless, VRChat has solidified itself as one of those games everybody with access to virtual reality needs to play.

One of the best parts of the game is the amount of customization potential. Sure, one can change their avatar and roleplay as any number of popular and original characters, but perhaps the most impressive aspect of VRChat is the quality of worlds coming out of the game's map-making community.
10 The Great Pug
The Great Pug is one of those VR worlds that everybody has seen. Streamers spend a lot of time there, content creators feature the well-designed location in countless videos, and it's a location ripe for fun RP or just to relax with other people.
The Great Pug is a classic pub with a bar, drinks, tables, food, and lots of things to interact with. In VR, it's even a place to show off your juggling skills.
9 Zombie Tag Worlds
Zombie Tag in VRChat works much as it does in real life. One person starts out "it", they tag someone, then they too become "it". The game continues until everybody has succumbed to the plague of being "it".
In VRChat this game is brought to a whole new level with lots of custom maps for players to get Zombie Tag games going. Just search for the game mode and look for a server with lots of people!
8 Freeze Tag Worlds
Freeze Tag and Zombie Tag are birds of a feather. Where Zombie tag is about converting everybody into a tagger, Freeze Tag is all about stopping people from moving until nobody can move or rescue each other from being "frozen".
Much like with Zombie Tag, look for Freeze Tag worlds by searching for the game mode on the Worlds tab. Make sure to pick a world with a high population so you have someone to play with!
7 Big Al's Avatar Corridors
Big Al's Avatar Corridors is not necessarily a map that you visit to relax or play a game or anything like that. Instead, it's more like a museum of costumes where you get to try on and bring home the display.

Big Al's Avatar Corridors is absolutely stuffed with custom player models that the player can view, try on, and even download. They're all fully rigged, too, so they won't look too weird when you talk to other people.
6 Deathrun Worlds
Deathrunning is a game mode that goes way back to the beginning of Garry's Mod and the source engine. Essentially, one player (Death) sets off traps on a path that the other players must traverse to get to the end. If a player gets hit with a trap, they lose and don't get an opportunity to beat Death.
It works the exact same way in VRChat, and it's one of the most popular custom game modes available. There's a huge variety of maps with more being made every week, and they're getting crazier and crazier as time goes on.
5 Japan Shrine
The Japan Shrine is a lovely meditative place to be in the virtual world. It's a spring setting with Cherry Blossom trees gently swaying in the wind and a pale blue sky above, and the Shrine is home to many traditional rooms and relaxing areas to be in all inspired by Japanese architecture and traditional homes.
The original Japan Shrine was unfortunately taken down by its creator soon after its release, but other imitations have cropped up that do a good job of rendering the same scene.
4 The Black Cat
The Black Cat is an Oculus Quest-only world that functions as an event space in the virtual world. It has two performance stages, two bars, a restaurant, multiple private areas, and even separate bathrooms with mirrors.

It's another popular world that you might recognize if you watch enough videos about VRChat. Many streamers and content creators use The Black Cat as a "home base" and a place to interact with their fans due to its homely aesthetics.
3 The Devouring
The Devouring is one of the most unique VRChat worlds because it's not a hangout space or a game space at all. Instead, The Devouring brings the horror genre to VRChat and even works as a co-op adventure.
The Devouring starts after a road trip gone wrong, and up to four players can traverse the nearly 6-hour-long campaign. It's been rightfully compared to indie horror games from recent years and is perhaps the most well-known horror world in VRChat.
2 Where Spheres Touch
Where Spheres Touch is not a map for the faint of heart or the faint of mind. It's a psychedelic journey through consciousness depicted in virtual reality, and it's absolutely massive. One could spend hours here getting sucked into the eye candy and intricate designs of this trippy world.
Funnily enough, the original world was so popular that the creator released a sequel, Where Spheres Touch II, that expands the world and changes much about the psychedelia witnessed therein.
1 Sled Hill
Sled Hill is an absolutely hilariously fun time in VRChat for one reason: it's the number one thing that causes people to fall over in VRChat. Normally, the camera and controls are very user-friendly, but riding a Sled is a different story.
There was originally only one Sled Hill map, but just searching for the "sled" tag on the Worlds tab should bring up a variety of worlds where you can sled down huge hills, even when it's not cold outside!
