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 Deep, which 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 Child, from 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.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR Confirmed for November Release on PlayStation VR, Includes All DLC

Bethesda Softworks are keen to ensure that you have the opportunity to play The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Or, if you’ve already played it, to play it again. This time for the first time in virtual reality (VR), as earlier today at Sony Interactive Entertainment’s (SIE) Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) press conference, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR was confirmed for release on PlayStation VR.

Since that reveal, publisher Bethesda Softworks has not only announced that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is set for a November 2017 release on PlayStation VR, but also that all of the original console downloadable content (DLC) will be included with both the digital and physical editions of the videogame. The official statement issued by the publisher reads as:

“A true, full-length open-world game for VR has arrived from award-winning developers, Bethesda Game Studios. Skyrim VR reimagines the complete epic fantasy masterpiece with an unparalleled sense of scale, depth, and immersion. From battling ancient dragons to exploring rugged mountains and more, Skyrim VR brings to life a complete open world for you to experience any way you choose. Skyrim VR includes the critically-acclaimed core game and official add-ons – Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn.”

Bethesda Softworks also announced two other VR titles for release in 2017 this week, DOOM VFR and Fallout 4 VR. There’s currently no word on whether or not The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR will also make its way to PC VR formats, however VRFocus will be meeting with Bethesda Softworks on the E3 show floor tomorrow, 13th June 2017. You can be sure the right questions will be asked.
