SUPERHOT VR is coming to PSVR this summer

VR version is the definitive version I say (a very different game, but VR justifies it). Enjoy PSVR owners.
 
The choice to have so many announcements not happen during the briefing puzzles me
It wouldn't have been anywhere near as underwhelming had they announced this and Undertake on stage. I know I complained when MS showed pretty much nothing but indies, but Sony really needed a few more to space out the AAA stuff.
 
Cool! Really want to see what the tracking tolerance is like. Superhot always has me like crawling on the floor and shit.

This so much. Superhot in the PSVR section of the press conference would definitely not be out of place.
 
Best VR game, imo. Phenomenal. I've spent hours in the endless mode.

Does Vive's full room stuff add much?

Game was made for Oculus, which out of the box has better room scale than PSVR but requires a third camera to match Vive. Which is to say, there will be some stuff behind you to pick up(Whether it falls there or spawns there), but there won't be enemies behind you.

That being said, the bigger the room you play it in, the better. Slicing people up with knives and bashing them with hammers is a lot easier when you have room to move. Not even to mention dodging, which is essential.

Between this, Skyrim and Doom, I would say PSVR has fully justified its existence.

Exactly. I feel like I have a ton to still catch up on psvr but I'll skip to these and I can always come back later right? Been loving PSVR! Haven't been this excited about gaming in a while.
 
Guess this might finally decide my VR purchase. Rez Infinite and Superhot, the only two VR games I care about, on the same device at last.
 
I was pretty happy to see this announced and come out so soon too. I don't have deep enough pockets to invest in both PC VR and PS VR, so this is much appreciated.

No, the usual benefit of not losing tracking when moving around too much but not more than that. Sometimes you have enemies coming from 2 opposite sides so you can extend your arms to the sides and shoot them at the same time (maybe also doable with move controllers if you can keep your controllers in the viewport of the move camera) and you can shoot your gun behind your back, but the game is not build around doing things that would occlude your hands, it's originally developed for a front facing set-up I believe.

The game is on the short side of VR games though, even taking many of the experiments and early access stuff into comparison so I would temper my expectations (under 2 hours and I was done with the "campaign") you can add more hours with challenge modes and so on but that depends on if you like what's there.
For my personal taste it's a little bit too simple of a game to dive into headshot challeneges and speed runs but many people seem to love it.

I've gotten scores of hours out of the Endless horde mode, personally.
