In recent years, the adoption of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) has been an engaging development for the future of immersive education. There has been a growing interest in the potential of VR/AR technologies to revolutionize higher education institutions. The purpose of this study is to analyze the power of VR/AR technologies to enhance higher education. To examine the overall picture of the topic, we conduct a literature review to collect and summarize the published educational literature, followed by an interpretation of the challenges, barriers and recommendations. The findings highlight the power of VR/AR as an immersive approach to learning and teaching. The conclusion presents that VR and AR are a key success factor for digital higher education.
