Bring a rideable personal watercraft into your Unreal Engine project. VR Jet Ski combines an editable ReferenceCraft vehicle with OpenXR handlebar interaction, water physics, a live digital dashboard and desktop controls. Start with the example project, then adapt the artwork and handling to your own experience. Supports PCVR and Native Quest 3.

Try it before you buy

• Download the Quest demo

• Download the Windows demo - extract the ZIP and run Play-Desktop.cmd for keyboard controls and cockpit/chase views, or start your OpenXR runtime and run Play-VR.cmd for PCVR with animated hands.

What you can build with it

• Ride using OpenXR controller grips and triggers, with handlebar steering, throttle, braking, reverse, engine toggle and rider recentering.

• Customize paint, engine/wind/water sounds, propulsion, throttle response, steering, stability and sea states using editor settings and Blueprint nodes, without editing C++ source. The guide includes audio replacement, runtime handling profiles and settings-menu recipes.

• Display live speed, drive state, engine and water-contact information on the included digital instrument screen.

• Change the hull color through the BodyColor material parameter, including per-vehicle changes at runtime.

• Use the supplied craft with four mesh LODs, or integrate a replacement mesh using the documented rig, grip and collision workflow.

• Integrate the vehicle into a native pawn or an existing XR rider setup. Full C++ source and a Blueprint vehicle are included.
