With the rapid development of information technology, virtual reality (VR) and game teaching have gradually become an important tool in modern education. As a universal language, the innovation of English teaching methods is particularly important. This study aims to develop an interactive English e-learning video entertainment teaching environment based on virtual reality and game teaching to enhance students’ learning interest and effect. By combining virtual reality technology with game teaching method, this paper designs and develops a set of interactive English e-learning video entertainment teaching platform. The platform uses emotion analysis technology to monitor students’ emotional state in real time and dynamically adjust teaching content according to emotional feedback. The results showed that the experimental group of students in English learning performance is significantly better than the control group, learning interest and participation is also significantly improved. Emotion analysis data showed that students in the experimental group showed more positive emotions when using the platform, and their learning pressure was significantly reduced. The interactive English e-learning video entertainment teaching environment based on virtual reality and game teaching not only improves the learning effect of students, but also significantly improves their learning interest and participation.
