A VR RPG that offers a mixture of great moments and missed opportunities.
Built exclusively for VR and initially launched on Steam, Shadow Legend VR is a medieval action adventure with RPG elements by developer VitruviusVR. It’s now out for Playstation VR as well, which is how we checked it out.
Looking at youtube reviews, the reactions are pretty positive. It seems that the only major issues are that the combat is rather tame and that there's only 2 bosses. Aside from that, a lot of PSVR fans praised it as a homage of old school RPG. I think the PSVR version 2 new areas.
The PlayStation Brahs:
“Developer Vitruvius Technologies has allowed us to embark on a new quest with interaction. Let’s find out how with Shadow Legend VR for the PlayStation VR.”
From PlayStation Universe: "If you are anything like me, when you look at a game’s promotional materials and you see things like flaming swords and chain mail, your mind immediately starts excitedly screaming “RPG! It’s and RPG!”. And when one of these games shows up in the RPG-starved PSVR market, it can be doubly exciting. But in the case of Shadow Legend VR, I had to tell my wildly excited mind to cool its jets. While there are RPG elements in Shadow Legend VR, and it does certain things better than lauded games like Skyrim VR(!), an RPG this ain’t."
