PSVR Owners Thread.

Can someone clarify this, please? Clap Hanz tweeted this minutes ago. Is Everybody's Golf VR only coming out in Japan this week or is this an update?

Embedded Tweet

It's already out, sir:

The tweet you posted links to a Playstation blog from 2019, hence the confusion.

People in this thread posted that they liked it and it's remarkably accurate and fun.

I know it's out. I got it day one. It was just strange to see that tweet yesterday which translates to:

[PS VR] 0 yards to the golf course. "Minna no GOLF VR" is finally released!

I just wondered if this was an update or something. Very strange. especially having the "finally" in there.

Guys, is the Batman VR worth it? Thoughts please.

Get it in a sale!
It's currently reduced to £7.99 (cheapest ever was £7.39) and that's an OK price, but be aware that it's incredibly polished, but pretty short.

I really enjoyed it, I liked investigating the crime scenes and deducing what happened and the batarang training sim was good fun, but it's over in a couple of nights and you probably won't return, but what there is, is really professional.

Agreed, it's weird they'd tweet in 2020 a link to a blog from a year ago when the game was about to launch.

Definitely. It's about the length of a movie, and it's fun if you're a fan of the Arkham games or Batman in general.

Minecraft adds PS VR support this month

This has been much requested, and much discussed amongst our Minecraft PlayStation community and players but, I can finally say something officially about it. Yes, we are bringing PlayStation VR support to Minecraft, and we’re doing it very soon! This month, in fact!!

Yes, that soon!

Us Mojang folks have been bursting to say something about this for ages! PS VR support has actually been a planned PS4 feature since we got the thumbs-up from Sony to bring cross platform play and the Bedrock version to PlayStation 4. There was never any question of would we, just when.

So, I guess you’ll be wanting to know some details?

Once we’ve finished the final bits of polish to the experience, the PS VR support will arrive via a patch for the main Minecraft game. Everyone who has Minecraft on PlayStation 4 will get that patch automatically. Download that patch and you’ll get access to the new Minecraft VR functionality. Of course, you’ll need a PS VR setup in order to use it. All of you have one of those right?!

But what is Minecraft x PlayStation VR, I hear you say?

Well <drum roll>… it’s Minecraft, but in stellar VR. It is 100% the same Minecraft game that you can play every day, every week, every month, every year…on PlayStation 4. Nothing removed. 100% wholesome & pure full-fat Minecraft.

But surely there must be something different?
Yes, of course! There’s a bunch of new settings & guidance so that you can tweak the VR experience to your needs. There’s also two main ways you can play the game in VR: Immersive and Living Room modes. We think both are cool, but it’s up to you.
Just like the main game, you use your DualShock 4 controller to move around and do all the crafting and choppy/fighty things that you need to do, but you’ll be fully immersed in your Minecraft world. I guarantee you will jump out of your skin at some point.

Despite the pandemic adjusting how we develop Minecraft, development on Minecraft for PS VR has been relatively drama-free. Dare I say it, normal, even. The Minecraft x PSVR experience itself is based on the Minecraft VR tech that we developed for other VR platforms a few years back. SkyBox Labs took that and have been working their magic to convert and optimise the existing tech for PS VR. And, of course, our friends at Sony have been there all along the way to guide us because they know their system better than anyone.

It’s been a brilliant team effort and we’re so excited for PlayStation VR’s players to get to experience a gorgeous, immersive version of Minecraft!

Minecraft in VR OMG YASSSSSSSS, i have wanted that for so long. Have the game already so i'll be happy to update for VR fun.

[QualityChimp]

Thought this thread was quiet. This is great news!

[importaku]

As basic as the graphics are it's wonderful to just walk around the surreal blocky enviroments, to do this in 1st person in VR will be amazing. Mining deep underground exploring, bet digging through a wall and falling into a unseen cavern full of lava in 1st person is horrifying lol.

[Cassius_Smoke]

Never got on with Minecraft. In VR it'll be a different experience but it's still chopping down trees endlessly.

[CMcK]

Oh man I’ll have to buy Minecraft again. No way will the kids not hear about this and want to try it. Wonder if I could claim my PSVR isn’t working?

[kryss]

Glad I bought it years back now, looking forward to more VR!

[hudson]

My kids are ready for this. Awesome news.

[Asura]

Just waiting for that sweet sweet PS5-VR announcement so I can ditch my Facebook Quest.
