Abstract Purpose Substance use disorders (SUD) are burdening chronic conditions characterized by high relapse rates despite severe negative consequences. Substance-related cues that elicit craving by means of automatic physiological and behavioural responses have long been suggested to predict relapse. One major mechanism contributing to relapse behaviour are cue-induced behavioural approach tendencies towards the addictive agent. Recently, there has been an emerging interest in virtual reality (VR)-based approaches to assess and modify craving and its related responses. This review aims at elucidating (1) VR techniques applied in the field of SUD, (2) VR as an induction/assessment tool for biopsychological correlates of craving and (3) VR-based therapeutic approaches. Findings There is an emerging number of studies focusing on different substances of abuse incorporating VR in craving induction/assessment as well as therapy. Despite some limitations as missing of randomized controlled clinical trials with large samples and missing data on the long-term effects of VR treatment, the VR approach showed consistent results in eliciting and reducing craving across different substances. Summary This review suggests virtual reality as a promising tool for the assessment and treatment of craving among individuals with substance use disorders. Because of its ecological validity, VR unifies the benefits of a laboratory setting with the advantages of a realistic environment. Further studies with large samples and randomized controlled clinical trials using more homogenous VR techniques as well as assessment of objective biophysiological craving markers are required.
