Incorporating virtual reality (VR) technology into serious games to promote empathy holds great promise, but it also comes with potential drawbacks, whether intended or unintended. Through the formulation of systematic design principles, drawing on insights from literature pertaining to VR, serious games, and empathy, our goal is to guide game designers in creating impactful methods to infuse empathy into the design of educational, entertaining, and compassionate games that facilitate societal transformation.
