  • MarketBeat identifies Meta Platforms (META), zSpace (ZSPC) and The Glimpse Group (VRAR) as the three Virtual Reality stocks to watch after they recorded the highest dollar trading volume among VR firms in recent days.
  • Meta pursues VR at scale through its Family of Apps and Reality Labs (headsets and metaverse platforms), while zSpace targets K‑12 and workforce education with AR/VR hardware and learning software and The Glimpse Group provides enterprise VR/AR solutions for healthcare, training and 3D content distribution.
  • The article notes VR stocks offer growth exposure to headsets, games, enterprise simulation and metaverse opportunities but warns investors to weigh adoption, competition and rapid technological or legal shifts (for example, industry moves like OpenAI’s Sora shutdown that can reshape competitive dynamics).
  • Five stocks to consider instead of Meta Platforms.

Meta Platforms, zSpace, and The Glimpse Group are the three Virtual Reality stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Virtual reality stocks are shares of publicly traded companies that develop, manufacture, or provide hardware, software, content, platforms, or services for immersive virtual reality experiences. Investors buy these stocks to gain exposure to the growth potential of VR markets—such as headsets, games, enterprise simulation, and metaverse platforms—while facing risks from adoption rates, competition, and rapid technological change. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Virtual Reality stocks within the last several days.
