Therefore, the primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of commercially available virtual reality (VR) exergaming systems on balance and functional mobility, with a supplementary analysis considering the administered dose of exergaming. The search was conducted in five databases. Commercially available exergaming platforms were classified into two categories: VR exergaming with a balance board (including Wii Balance Board) and motion capture (including Xbox Kinect). Two categories of control interventions (treatment as usual [TAU] and no treatment [NT]) were extracted. The meta-analysis was performed separately for static, dynamic, and proactive balance outcomes and for the aggregated results of all included outcomes with subgroup analysis of lower, moderate, and higher doses. In total, 28 studies with 1457 participants were included. Both exergaming systems were particularly effective in improving the single leg stance outcome.
