We may still be waiting to learn the release date and (gulp) price, but Sony is no longer coy about showing off games running on its upcoming virtual reality headset. The company revealed footage of an existing VR title W promising to be better than ever, an adaptation of the tall vampire lady game, brand-new titles... it's clear that PSVR2 is set to hit the virtual ground running.
The star attraction among the games revealed so far is, surely, Horizon Call Of The Mountain. This isn't a VR port of Zero Dawn or Forbidden West, it's being created from the ground up exclusively for PSVR2 by Horizon's usual developer, Guerrilla Games, plus Liverpool-based Firesprite (acquired by Sony last year).
For this completely new game, we're getting a new player character: Ryas, a former Shadow Carja Warrior. Ryas is an expert when it comes to climbing and archery and, thanks to the magic of virtual reality, you will be too. His road to redemption will be full of surfaces to scale and enemies that demand careful use of his bow and arrow. Games that emulate such actions on the existing PSVR can suffer from poor tracking, as the Move controllers (and the headset itself) rely on an external camera. PSVR2, however, should make drawing back a bowstring silky smooth thanks to its four built-in cameras. The only resistance you'll encounter will be from the adaptive triggers on the Sense controllers.
