It’s a great game to play during a birthday party because you can play with lots of people and its fun for every age.
Mario Kart: Put your driving skills to the test with Mario Kart. This is such a classic and fun video game for a group of player to have fun and play together. You could even set up a tournament-style and see who the big winner is.

Virtual Reality Video Game Birthday Ideas
VR Place: If you don’t own a VR set, one party idea that I love is heading to your local VR place and renting out a few booths for a couple of hours of fun. Each player can take turns playing different types of games they love!
Then head home for some pizza and cake and you have yourself the perfect video game birthday party.
Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes: To make your separation part of the game, try Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, in which one of you has to defuse a bomb and one has the manual, but neither of you can see what the other can. It’s frantic, silly, and you only need one copy to play.
Beat Saber: Beat Saber is a unique VR rhythm game where your goal is to slash the beats (represented by small cubes) as they are coming at you.
