The 10 PSVR 2 Games You Should Own

If you're looking for 'must have' PSVR 2 games then look no further. These are the 10 titles every PSVR 2 owner should have in their library.

[kevco33]

If you're wanting more PSVR 2 support, you should probably buy all of these games.

Speak with your wallet!

[Profchaos]

Bit rich to have to buy games you don't want because you want Sony to support the expensive headset they sold us which cost as much as the console it runs on beyond paying third partys to support it.
Seriously in terms of first party we have horizon on day 1 and a gt 7 vr mode.

They seemingly have made little effort to support it beyond paying Capcom to make re games in VR or a second party studio to make firewall which was mismanaged.

I'm a day 1 psvr2 user and the only thing I'm excited for right now is PC support.

I commented recently this bespoke VR game development model we have right now clearly doesn't work

[crazyCoconuts]

On the one hand I feel like there's been plenty of smaller non-AAA games to play and occupy me as a supplement to my flat screen gaming.
But I agree that Sony has done nothing to elevate this beyond the niche it's in and into the mainstream where it would be economical to create AAA games for it.

[Babadook7]

Most of these games are worth owning for most people; I own all but 2 of them in fact. So I agree with kevco33. I think you're crazy if you downplay this list quite frankly. Sony can't keep funding software if people don't buy any of it, the ball is squarely in OUR court.

Sony has spent a lot on 3rd party stuff this gen like RE.

[phoenixwing]

Saving up for the headset is my first hurdle. Let alone buying games I don't want lol

[mudakoshaka]

People downvoting you for not having enough finances...what a world we live in, haha

[phoenixwing]

@mudako
They feel affronted at the very thought that I don't plunk down 500 immediately lol I have a little over 900 games in my backlog I've been buying games instead of hardware ever since I got my PC and ps5. I just don't know if vr is really for me honestly. Every time I have a couple hundred allocated to video games it makes more sense to buy a bunch of flat games instead of vr ones

[mudakoshaka]

I have 9 out of these 10 games. I try to buy all the VR games I like to support the advancement of VR!

[TheEroica]

I spoke with my wallet after watching the first headset get weak support. Easy pass until Sony earns my money. Feel bad for those who parted with 500 bucks, falling for the hype that Sony was actually gonna support this thing.

[Neonridr]

I own 7 of these titles off the list, lol.

[NotoriousWhiz]

I'm trying to decide if it's worth holding onto my psvr 2. I enjoy what it has currently, but it seems unlikely to get anything else. Might be better off just waiting for something with more support if that ever comes.

[Profchaos]

As a fellow psvr2 owner the question seemingly comes down to do you own a PC.

I think I'm all in I have a habit to hold onto my systems anyhow I still have my psvr1 to hell I still have my NES.

But while it's still worth something yeah you could sell it and if Sony turns the ship around you should be able to buy another one for less than you soldmit for I feel like we won't see any fix for the headset for the next 2 years rumours show that Sony has no current first party VR games in active development after they closed London studios

The whole psvr2 situation has left me feeling a little burnt on PlayStation as a whole to be honest. The first psvr felt experimental but it was supported far more than this superior headset

[MIDGETonSTILTS17]

GT7 surprised me, because I hate racing games, but i poured 100 hours into it way too quickly.

I’m looking forward to the Metro VR game this year, and I hope that WW2 dogfighter game releases eventually.

[talocaca]

I have most of them 😅

Waiting for a sale on Synapse and Arizona Sunshine 2.....also Metro coming this year looks great.

[Solitariussaint]

Excellent list, these are all excellent VR2 games worth owning! I'd add Hellsweeper to this list.

[Futureshark]

Synapse is awesome, but c'mon...Pistol Whip!!!

[Skuletor]

Pistol Whip and Thumper were my favourites on the OG PSVR.

[ModsDoBetter]

Wouldn't invest in the failed accessory.

Sony now halting production due to stock piling up and not shifting. As predicted, a failed peripheral.

[Babadook7]

Where are getting all this from? IDC? Windows Central?

You wouldn't invest? Why did you invest in the failed console that is xbox then?

[ModsDoBetter]

Or do you need more sources to counter your denial? What has Xbox got to do with a PS article?

[Babadook7]

Nice. Bloomberg citing sources. So not as credible as all those copy and paste articles about psvr2 underperforming psvr1 before Sony dropped actual info.

MS just keeps at it though.

[thorstein]

What's the failure date? Just so we all know. I was told it failed in 2016. Then again in 2018. Then again in 2020.

Now your telling me VR failed in 2024. But what's the actual date, since you're "in the know" on these things? Modern VR started in 2013. It's been 11 years.

That will help the rest of us to know when to stop playing and buying games.

[ModsDoBetter]

See evidence above.

Failing to shift units - Sony is now pausing production as a result.

Come back to me this time next year and see if you still have the same attitude. One...ONE first party game built for VR (Horizon) and one with a mode (GT7).

Wooo!
First party support in full swing, we PSVR2 users eating tonight!

[thorstein]

PS stopped producing. You neglected to say those are anonymous rumors. You neglected to say that Oculus outsold PSVR2 3:1.

You also neglected to say that PS is adding PC support. Weird thing to do to something that is failing.

You also failed to deliver a failure date.

"When" refers to a time. When will it fail? It hasn't failed yet. So when does it?

[ModsDoBetter]

"PS stopped producing. You neglected to say those are anonymous rumors. You neglected to say that Oculus outsold PSVR2 3:1."

What does Oculus performing better have to do with anything here? If anything it only furthers the sentiment that PSVR2 is the least desired VR headset.

Also, what confirmed sales numbers? Aside from the 600k announced for the first six weeks.

You try to diminish my evidence with actual receipts delivered above yet here you are yapping away.

"Sony later stated it had sold 600k PSVR2 units in the device's first six weeks - slightly more than the first PlayStation VR headset managed in the same timeframe. Sony has not provided any update on PSVR2's sales performance since."

"You also neglected to say that PS is adding PC support. Weird thing to do to something that is failing."

This is a rumor, not confirmed. They have been testing it but there is no official confirmation that it is 100% happening nor any release date. Since you're so fixated on dates - tell me the exact date of PC support confirmed from sony.

Furthermore, it is not weird at all to open up to other platforms since the product itself is underperforming with limited (VERY LIMITED) first party support.

Case in point: Xbox this gen now opening their first party exclusive games up to competitors.

Try harder.

[ChasterMies]

“Call of the Mountain” and “Synapse” are amazing experiences. But what I really want are more non-game experiences like a 3D movie or a chill exploration like a museum exhibit. If Apple Vision Pro owners can watch NFL games via a 360° camera, why can’t PSVR2 owners?

[Leeroyw]

I have them all. And agree on all accounts. Issue is. What's next? You have modders able to make almost any game VR compatible but not Sony?!?

[maniacmayhem]

Pretty much the top and only 10 games worth having a PSVR 2 for (some are questionable) and with Sony halting production I don't think they'll be 10 more from Sony any time soon.

[aaronlif10]

I LOVE the VR updates for the Resident Evil games, but I do think Sony needs to do a better job bringing more AAA games to this, as well as some apps (like BigScreen). Half Life Alyx needs to happen for PSVR2 and I'm shocked it still hasn't been announced. I know they are bringing pcvr support but I really think they need to bring the game to console optimized to run well on the hardware. One game that has been honestly made the psvr2 worth it to me is PAVLOV. THAT game has me fully addicted. In my opinion, PAVLOV is to VR what Goldeneye was to the N64. On the PSVR2 it feels amazing. I hope sony pushes to get more VR content on PSVR2. I'd love a ps5/ psvr2 version of Doom 3 vr, Alien Isolaion, Jurassic Park Survivor vr (not a thing buy it would be amazing if they added a vr mode to that), and Half Life Alyx. Hopefully Sony starts pushing harder to make games that can draw people in. A VR mode for Resident Evil 2 would be amazing too.
