VGChartz's Brandon J Wysocki: "With their focus on story, but encompassing any number of gameplay or design elements that may be associated with other genres, adventure games stood out as some of the most advanced and immersive games available decades ago. In the last decade, adventure titles have experienced a resurgence and, consistent with that, 2020 offered a solid slate of adventure games. The games on this year’s shortlist are as excellent as they are unique from one another."
Recommended PS5 and PS4 games in the latest sale.
A new update for Bugsnax is now available, and it gives Steam players a brand-new way to experience the acclaimed adventure game in VR.
I played a bit of this on PS5 at launch and was really digging it. This is on sale for 9.99 on Steam for the next 48 hours, so it's a good time to experience it again in VR!
I hope they bring native support for PSVR2 players, but at the very least, they can run it off of their PCs now w the headset.
Really excited to jump into this tonight!
**Edit- I saw this on their Twitter, one of the devs said this about PSVR2:
"We don't have plans to port it to other platforms! Bugsnax was created using a custom game engine, so each port is time consuming. Our next game is in Unreal though, so future VR possibilities are muchhh easier"
At least you guys have the PC adapter now!
yeah but I'm not re-buying the game to play it in VR. I don't care how cheap it is. That's just silly to me.
Did you actually buy it, or did you get it free on PS+ when the PS5 launched? I never actually had to pay for it.
Yea for me, I never finished it, so it's easily worth 9.99 to experience it in VR. I think that's a fair price to show support for more games to come to VR in the future.
But I understand if you played through it completely and don't want to hit it again. For me, many games become such a different experience in VR that I'll easily play them again. VR adds new life to everything.
@OtterX - that's a good point, I did get it free for PS+, I totally forgot.
Fair point. I know my kid loved it, maybe he'd dig it in VR.
shame that they don't include PSVR2 players considering this game was on the PS5 first.
definitely a win for VR! I tried it this morning, and it feels like this is how the game was always meant to be played. The controls translate very well.
Have this sitting in my library thanks to Plus, but I haven’t tried the game yet.
If there would have been a PSVR2 version then I would have more likely given it a go. As it is it may stay buried in my backlog a bit longer.
13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is set to be removed from the PS Plus Extra and Premium game catalog alongside other games in September, 2024.
That's definitely some good ones gone. Still makes no sense to me removing 1st party releases.
I just started replaying star ocean till the end of time. Probably just need to buy it
Oh boy, the meaning of "adventure" game has quite changed in recent years I suppose.
