Imagine Pong being played from a first-person perspective, but instead of using a controller, you control the bat by moving your head. But it’s so good that (with a little more development) I believe it would be worthy of its own game. Truth be told, it’s the sort of thing that by description alone would be easy to dismiss as motion-controlled tat. It’s an actual game, too, rather than an experience, and one I’d wager wasn’t on your radar when it came to PlayStation VR Worlds: Danger Ball.ĭanger Ball is fantastic. There’s one mini-game, though, that’s kept me coming back. The kind of thing you try once and never return to again, resulting in a disc that really should have been included with the headset. For more PlayStation news, we'll be covering the announcement of PS4K and the PlayStation 4 Slim live tonight from 8pm UK time.There’s a lot of good stuff in PlayStation VR Worlds: Ocean Descent and its beautiful (albeit mildly unsettling) underwater deep dive The London Heist and its 30-minute story of a diamond robbery gone wrong and Scavengers Odyssey, a disorienting (and often nauseating) sci-fi shoot-fest through an alien-infested space station.īut they’re ultimately all just short, micro experiences designed to show off the capabilities of PlayStation VR.

PlayStation VR launches in the UK on 13th October. The lesser known titles are Wayward Sky, a cute-looking 3D adventure game Tumble VR, a block-stacking puzzler and Headmaster, a football heading keepy-uppy game. If you're not familiar with the rest, RIGS offers arena shooting, Battlezone is a fancy remake of the arcade tank shooter classic, while Eve has in-cockpit space battles.

RIGS Mechanized Combat League - Guerrilla Gamesĭriveclub will let you race in VR from behind the wheel, while VR Worlds' demo lets you try Ocean Descent - one of the five mini-games available in the full title.Sony is including a PSVR demo disc with a selection of experiences from some of its own studios - as well as from other PSVR developers - so you have something to play straight out of the box.
