PlayStation VR demoed at PlayStation Experience; new titles revealed, “Ace Combat 7”and “Psychonauts: In The Rhombus of Ruin” coming to headset
There were a lot of new reveals and updates at the PlayStation Experience and fans are treated to new titles and they are also treated to the first line-up of games for Sony’s Virtual Reality headset. Sony’s PlayStation VR is looking to have a couple of new titles and they look to be good games to introduce the VR headset into the market.
The PlayStation VR is expected to debut in Spring of 2016. Since the launch date is near, fans are not shocked to see that the device will be treated to a demo anytime soon. As expected, Sony did provide a demo for the VR headset, which is headed by Richard Marks and Sony. The device itself was impressive as it allowed two players in a virtual space instead of the usual one-player experience, but the demo was a bit flawed, Venturebeat reports.
During the presentation, Marks and his partner showed off how the PlayStation VR was different from other VR headsets. The difference is that two-players can now occupy one virtual space with the use of the PlayStation VR. To demo this feature, Marks and his partner played a somewhat virtual area in which the players are pitted in a battle of throwing discs at each other.
The problems within the demo began to arise when the two began playing. Mark’s own controller began malfunctioning and he cannot throw a disc at his partner, his partner on the other hand had no troubles with the controls. It seems as though that the controls themselves are the root of the issue. What’s good is that Sony still has months to fix the issues of plaguing the device.
Sony also showcased some of the titles coming to the PlayStation VR and among the titles is the return of the popular aerial battle sim “Ace Combat,” Gamasutra reports. Other titles include “Rez,” “Eagle Flight,” “Job Simulator,” “100 FT Robot Golf” and “Psychonauts.”
