Jan: "The exclusive action game Synapse for PSVR2 makes power fantasies come true. I lifted opponents into the air from a distance like a Sith Lord, crashing them to the deadly asphalt.
Even more amazing is the intuitive use of eye tracking. I simply marked objects in my field of view with my gaze, then used the left controller to snatch them into the air and propel them into my opponents. Fluid hand motions worked best. After all, larger objects do have a certain amount of mass.
Later on, shotguns, grenade launchers, and MPs can be upgraded with target-seeking rounds. Telekinesis can be upgraded with the ability to grab thrown grenades in mid-air and throw them back. A cool idea instead of frantically running out of cover or using your hands."
Archiact has announced that its sci-fi adventure Journey to Foundation will arrive for PSVR 2, Quest 2 and PICO 4 in late October.
Korean neo-noir action game, Tiger Blade from developer Ikimasho, launches exclusively for PSVR 2 next month.
Meta wasn’t the only company churning out VR news this week with the unveiling of its long-awaited Quest 3 mixed reality headset, as Sony tossed out a slew of PSVR 2 game announcements and updates for its surprise ‘VR Day’ on Thursday.
Yup. Sony keeps adding more and more. Over a hundred games to choose from and it's not even a year yet.
I'm sure PS5 gets 100 shovelware titles every month. Quality over quantity. How many of these PSVR2 games are actually worth playing? Maybe 10-15?
I'm still waiting on a reason to buy psvr2. I was an early adopter of the original psvr and this time around I'm not falling for the hype.
They're going to need to release actual AAA games and support them for me to spend $750cnd.
Yeah that's right Canadian's pay $750 for a peripheral with boat load of shovel wear.
@Notorious
There is way more awesome VR games than meets the eye. You are looking at their games on a flat screen. So you think they are shovelware but you really can’t say that until you play a VR game iN VR.
As of right now, some of my favorite games of the generation are VR titles. Hope that helps.
True, but they only need one game to *really* pique people's interest: Half-Life: Alyx. I'm still shocked that port hasn't been announced yet.
@NotoriousWhiz I have had PC VR for years it has most of titles on any platform and even still there is not that many great games. there is dozen good games and experiences. All in this VR showcase look pretty decent so I would not say that they are shovelware. I would say that there isnt even 100 VR games currently on PSN and you think there is 100 new shovelware every month...plz.
@JackBNimble Actual AAA games, do you even VR? Like true true AAA quality vr games even in PC VR is like maybe 5 or so, your expectation is not very realistic. Would it be great and good for VR, yes. Possible yes, but very unlikely.
Arizona sunshine 2.
Farpoint 2.
And a price drop.
Please.
Already own a ps5 and a copy gt7 - we ready out here
Yeh but farpoint 2 is Mia.
I fail to believe one of the best psvr games isn't getting a sequel. The developer made it In 2017. Another metaquest game in 2021, so now's the time for a new farpoint. Fingers crossed.
As an owner of PSVR2 and an “avid gaming news” reader, if that’s a thing.. I knew absolutely nothing about this until now. Well done Sony another great job at marketing this.
Reading this article though, seems like I didn’t miss much anyway.
Considering Astro did so well I’m really surprised no one else has really had a go at a proper VR platformer. Playing that on the original PSVR is what made me a believer. I haven’t felt like that since.
I think at this point, if Sony really want to push VR, I'd probably would want to start working on a unique PS showcase made specifically for upcoming VR games.
Half Life Alyx went on to be considered one of the best VR games and for me personally one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had, I wouldn't say that it made no impact. The real crime for me is that it still hasn't been announced for PSVR2.
Loads of new info in this article. I didn't know it was in Unreal Engine 5 and had raytracing, but that does help to explain why it looks so nice.
