Rob Pitt writes: Not everything in VR has to be first-person – that’s a phrase I wouldn’t have thought I would have ever said if you had asked me before the beginning of 2018. To me, I always thought VR would only work if you were living the virtual life of the protagonist within the game you are playing. Then 2018 happened, which is when I got to play games such as Moss, Starchild, The Lost Bear, and even Light Tracer. All of these 3rd person games just worked – yeah, I can see them working without VR, but with VR they are all enhanced and create a much broader sense of immersion. And now I got the chance to try out Pop-up Pilgrims from Dakko Dakko, a Lemmings-like game played in the 3rd person whilst you overlook 2.5d paper-craft characters – and once again, I was proven wrong. I guess the question is, does VR help or restrict this title? Unfortunately, it’s a bit of both.
The original PSVR has a great catalogue of games, but keeping the set-up working well can be a pain.
Join us as we take you through the basic gameplay of Humanity, an action-puzzle game where you control a glowing Shiba Inu. You place commands on the ground for a giant marching horde of people to follow. Make them turn, jump, float through the air, swim, climb, etc., all to reach the goal (or goals) in each stage.
Move over “International Pickle Day,” May 16 has a new number one claim to fame: it’s the launch day for Humanity!
Better yet, it’ll be available on Day 1 as part of the PlayStation Plus Game Catalog’s May lineup, available at no additional cost to PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium members.
Whether you own a PS5 or PS4, are a PS VR2 or PS VR or TV-only gamer, want to craft your own levels or just sit back and enjoy some action-platforming and puzzle-strategizing, this year May 16 is going to mean more than just “National Piercing Day.”
finally!, being waiting for this game since its announcement some years ago, so many objects on screen using physics running at 60 fps is always mesmerizing to see.
Awesome. I had this on my PS wishlist and was going to buy it Day 1. Seen as I have Extra, now I don't need to!
PSVR2 support too.
Platformers are not really my thing, but I guess I can try it out on PlusExtra. In VR2 to boot.
Finally! been badgering the devs on twitter for awhile now. Demo put me in a trance and i loved it.
