What VHS World '89 is
VHS World '89 was released in 2026. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only.
The premise, in the publisher's words
A cozy first-person sorting sim set in a 1989 video rental store. All 3,360 VHS tapes have spilled across the floor — pick them up, read the covers, and shelve them by genre. No timers, no pressure: just the quiet satisfaction of putting every last cassette back in its place.
How it plays
It is played from a first person perspective. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Co-operative, Multiplayer and Single player.
What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel Core i7-4790k / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X, 8 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB / AMD Radeon RX 6500XT. An 8GB memory requirement is modest by current standards; most machines sold in the last five years clear it. Install size is roughly 1GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
