Gran Turismo Sport was original slated for release at the end of 2016, but the developers were forced to push back the release date to 2017. Polyphony Digital are known among fans as being perfectionists, so it was not a huge surprised that an ambitious project such as Gran Turismo Sport ended up taking extra time.

The game now has a new Racing wheel designed exclusively for Gran Turismo Sport on the PlayStation 4. Specifically designed specially to enhance the experience of playing Gran Turismo Sport, the upcoming driving and racing simulator from Polyphony Digital on the PlayStation 4. Gran Turismo Sport is also offering virtual reality (VR) compatibility, which in combination with Thrustmaster’s racing wheel, could offer even more immersion to players.

Checkout all of Sony’s PlayStation VR E3 Showcase Announcements

Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) didn’t disappoint for its Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2017 press conference. The event saw numerous virtual reality (VR) experiences announced for the PlayStation VR, from cute and cuddly adventures to frantic shooters and fantasy epics. If you missed any of them VRFocus has created a handy video run though so you can see it all for yourself – either again or for the first time.

So what was shown? Well if you weren’t keeping up with proceedings the biggest news of the night really goes to Bethesda’s The Eldar Scrolls V: Skyrim VR which the studio didn’t mention during its press conference so the videogame may just be exclusive to SIE.

Then there’s Square Enix’s Final Fantasy XV: Monster of the Deepwhich bizarrely is a fishing experience. Or you’ve a got Moss, delightful puzzle adventure featuring a mouse called Quill. For those sci-fi fans out there you’ve got Star Childfrom Lucky’s Tale developer Playful. Lastly there was a double whammy from Supermassive Games – the studio behind Until Dawn – with Bravo Team and The Inpatient. The former is a military first-person shooter (FPS) while the latter is a prequel to Until Dawn.

VRFocus will be at E3 2017 all week, so check back everyday for the latest VR news.

Sony Announces 5 Brand New Games Heading to PSVR

At Sony’s E3 2017 presentation the company announced a slew of brand new titles heading to PSVR. The range of games is diverse, from shooter to puzzle, to horror, and more.

Though Skyrim is coming to PSVR, Sony’s E3 presentation also featured a section dedicated to brand new PSVR games not seen anywhere else yet. Here’s a quick look:

Star Child

Star Child is a new title from VR developer Playful, the studio that made Lucky’s Tale (2016). The new game appears to be a platformer like Lucky’s Tale but has a vastly different setting. It seems the game will play with scale quite significantly as your tiny character eventually meets a huge robot-like life form who wants to help. We’re guessing there may be portions of the way where the character inhabits the robot and interacts with the character as a giant helper.

The Inpatient

The Inpatient is coming from Supermassive Games, the studio behind PSVR title Until Dawn: Rush of Blood, Tumble VR, and other non-VR titles. The game looks to be a first-person horror/thriller which will take place in a medical ward. At first glance it seems reminiscent of the recently released Wilson’s Heart on Oculus.

Final Fantasy: Monsters of the Deep

From Square Enix, this appears to be the evolution of the Final Fantasy VR Experience that Sony had announced alongside Final Fantasy XV at last year’s E3. The gameplay revealed so far shows a VR fishing experience ranging from little fish to giant monsters. It isn’t clear if the game will be DLC for the latest Final Fantasy or a standalone title. The game is due to launch in September.

Bravo Team

Also from Supermassive Games, Bravo Team is a cover-based shooter that looks to be almost guaranteed to support the new PSVR Aim controller that recently debuted with Farpoint (2017).

Moss

Perhaps the most unique looking title announced in the bunch, Moss, from developer Polyarc, features an adorable little sword-wielding mouse as the main character. The player will inhabit a spirit-like avatar who will help guide the mouse (from a third-person vantage point) along its adventures. The game appears to be primarily a puzzle-adventure game with light combat.

Supermassive Games Reveal 2 New PlayStation VR Exclusives: The Inpatient & Bravo Team

Today has seen the reveal of more than half-a-dozen new PlayStation VR titles, two of which are coming from UK studio Supermassive Games. The Inpatient and Bravo Team, both revealed during Sony Interactive Entertainment’s (SIE) Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) showcase, will be coming exclusively to PlayStation VR.

 

Few details are yet known about each title. The Inpatient appears to be an adventure videogame with the player, in first-person, interacting with non-player characters (NPCs) in a hospital environment. The second, Bravo Team, appears to be a military first-person shooter (FPS). No release dates have been confirmed for either title, nor has PlayStation VR compatibility for Bravo Team.

Supermassive Games has been a key developer for PlayStation VR, beginning with a technical demonstration, Jurassic Encounter, back in 2014. Since then the studio offered two PlayStation VR launch titles: Tumble and Until Dawn: Rush of Blood.

Both these titles are expected to be playable at this year’s E3, Los Angeles, which begins tomorrow, 13th June 2017. VRFocus will be on the show floor and bringing you all the latest information on each new PlayStation VR title that has been announced.

E3 2017: Until Dawn Dev Reveals PSVR FPS Bravo Team

This new military first-person shooter (FPS) was introduced for PSVR at this year’s E3, making its debut on Sony’s stage. It looks like a full VR FPS that mixed the team’s knack for storytelling and character building. Previously, the team released a spin-off of its horror series in the popular Until Dawn: Rush of Blood.

We’ll have more details as soon as they’re ready.
