Comment: Unfortunately the barrier here is that reception of the game is still based on Steam user reviews and YT video essays which are not evidence of critical reception based on WP:NOYT and WP:USERG. I think that winning an award at the VIFF is a significant indicia that the game may be notable. But if there seriously is no RS evaluating the game, that is a notability issue. Sadly VR Realm seems to be non-RS. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 20:48, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: From what I can tell the draft has not substantially changed in sourcing since the last decline. Please see the below comments on review sourcing - these are what is keeping the title from meeting WP:GNG. Is there anything in terms of reliable reviews of the kind covered in WP:VG/S? Otherwise it just may not be notable. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 05:01, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: WP:GNG is so far not proven with reviews in reliable secondary sources. Steam reviews are WP:USERG and don't count. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:49, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: At the moment, does not meet WP:NGAMES. But if you can find more sources like filmkrant.nl and vrscout.com it might.Steam and other WP:PRIMARY sources cannot be used to establish notability under WP:NGAMES. Qcne (talk) 13:38, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

The Utility Room is a 2023 virtual reality (VR) Indie Surreal Horror Adventure game developed and published by Lionel Marsden in the United Kingdom. It was released for Windows with support for VR headsets via Steam and PlayStation 5.
In The Utility Room the player embarks on a linear journey through a rocky 'behind the scenes' world inhabited by massive floating stone heads that maintain the stability of existence.[1] The game has been praised for its sense of scale, strangeness, and non-traditional approach to VR and the horror genre.
It was released for PS VR2 in August 2024.[2]
