Game Groups > Genre: Six degrees of freedom

Games where the majority of movement is based on the concept of six degrees of freedom (6DoF). It refers to the freedom of movement of a rigid body in three-dimensional space. Specifically, the body is free to change position as forward/backward (surge), up/down (heave), left/right (sway) translation in three perpendicular axes, combined with changes in orientation through rotation about three perpendicular axes, often termed pitch, yaw, and roll.
