VRFocus - Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE) has often talked about applications of virtual reality (VR) outside of the immediate videogame experience. The company has been keen to discuss its ‘social screen’ initiative for its Project Morpheus VR headset for PlayStation 4, detailing potential multiplayer plans in which one player uses the headset while others use a TV screen. Now the company has revealed another use for the device: head-tracked avatars via the PlayStation Network.
Recent findings in the latest PSVR2 software update, indicates that PlayStation is already starting to implement support for PC.
The icing on the cake would be if Sony / Valve allow for a Steam Link app much like it is for the Quest 3. Likely wishful thinking, though.
Warner Bros. Discovery is closing down Adult Swim Games, delisting its published games. Thus putting Rick and Morty VR in jeopardy.
VR doesn't have to be isolating, there are some amazing social platforms out there. Here are the seven best VR social worlds to explore.
"...social applications for Project Morpheus, including the social screen idea, companion apps such as those for The Deep and Street Luge, and head-tracked avatars."
As interesting as these sound, I think more games beyond the asynchronous multiplayer headset/TV idea are in order. The games will make Morpheus integral to Playstation.
I wonder how well this would do with Playstation Home?
