PS VR, which is compatible with the more than 40 million PS4 systems already owned, arrives with a lineup of 30 games, including exclusive titles such as Rez Infinite, Batman: Arkham VR, DRIVECLUB VR and RIGS Mechanized Combat League. In total, PS VR will have a library of approximately 50 games by the end of the year.
"We are incredibly excited to bring virtual reality to PlayStation 4," said Jim Ryan, President of Global Sales and Marketing, SIE and President of SIEE. "PSVR puts the player right in the centre of the action, immersing them in extraordinary new worlds. PS VR is a milestone in home entertainment and it very much needs to be experienced to be believed"
PS VR delivers a sense of presence, where players feel as though they are physically inside the virtual world of a game. PS VR leverages state-of-the-art technologies, such as 360 degree head tracking, wide field of view, high refresh rates, and SIE's own binaural 3D audio technology, to heighten the emotions gamers experience as they play and make them believe they've been transported to another world.
By using peripherals such as PlayStation Move Motion Controller, DUALSHOCK 4 Wireless Controller and the upcoming PS VR Aim Controller, players can explore virtual environments and intuitively interact with characters as if they are actually present in the world of a game.
PS VR integrates a "Social Screen" feature that allows users who are not wearing the VR headset to see on the TV what the PS VR player is seeing in the headset, or to play alongside the VR player in supporting games. Games such as PLAYROOM VR (SIE WWS), which will be available as a free download to all PS VR owners, take advantage of this feature and demonstrate how PS VR can create unique multiplayer experiences when shared with friends and family.
PS VR will launch with a large and diverse lineup of first- and third-party games including EVE: Valkyrie, Thumper, 100ft Robot Golf, Job Simulator, Superhypercube, Battlezone, Eagle Flight, Here They Lie, PlayStation VR WORLDS and Until Dawn : Rush of Blood.
With more than 230 developers and publishers working on PS VR titles, the system's games portfolio will continue to expand after launch with highly anticipated games including RESIDENT EVIL 7 biohazard, ROBINSON: THE JOURNEY, Star Wars Battlefront Rogue One: X-wing VR Mission, Star Trek: Bridge Crew and Farpoint.
In addition to a best-in-class gaming lineup, there will be a variety of VR experiences and media applications coming to PS VR, including, Allumette, Invasion!, Kismet, Within, LittlStar, Vrideo, and The Martian.
