The Roar by Emma Clayton

Description: It is the future, after a thirty-year gap when no children were born, due to a period known as the Animal Plague. Now, the world is all concrete and plastic. Animals and all types of nature are forbidden, and Mika Smith is sick of it.
When Mika's twin sister Ellie disappears suddenly, he is the only one who believes she is still alive. This causes an issue in his relationship with other people, and Mika generally remains by himself, outcast by his belief that Ellie is alive. But when a new violent virtual reality game, Pod Fighter, comes to his city (futuristic London), Mika suddenly has friends, all competing for the same prize: a great vacation and a new house. Mika believes that playing - and winning - this game is the key to finding his sister again.
But what do any of the competitors really know about Pod Fighter? The stakes - and the rewards - are much higher than Mika could have dreamed. Will he find his sister after all, or pay the ultimate price trying to get to her?
