No one's saying they have no VR games in development. My point was the support has been lacking for a couple years now, and having one or two games in development is not going to change that suddenly.
the value of those IPs arent really strong enough to be worth it tbh, and we are seeing that in the kind of IPs that were used for PSVR so far:
Couple of years? Nah. Slowing down since 2019, 1st-party-wise? Yes.
That's what I guess. PSVR2 launch in Q1 2022. The PSVR1 hardware suits the PS4 hardware. But for the PS5, we need a better headset with less cables and better controllers. So support PSVR1 until 2021 and then go all out (regarding VR resources) for PSVR2 in 2022. Hardware and controller-wise, PSVR1 will totally be "last-gen" later this year.
That's why we got Wipeout Omega Collection, Until Dawn Rush of Blood/The Inpatient, Everybody's Golf VR, Super Stardust Ultra VR and stuff like the The Last Guardian VR demo ;)
They already did Wipeout VR so i think some old games could be redone for VR.

They can't/won't even do a State of Play deep-dive for Dreams... Unless a State of Play Dreams Deep-Dive shadow drop announcement that is...
Well they (the dev) worked on the collection not too long ago. So adding a VR shortly after was easier.
Until Dawn: Rush of Blood is still one of the best VR games for me. So much fun and easy to play. It's always the first game I let my friends play when I show them PSVR for the first time :)
Exactly. No reason to slow down because PS5 is coming.
Peripheral or not, VR is still its own platform. Why should consumers buy into a platform where the platform holder does 3 years of okay support and then barley supports it itself? Why should they buy PSVR 2 if there's the possibility that the same happens again?
New ip is ok, but old ip people are familiar with is better sometimes so attract interest . KZ2 in VR or Motorstorm could be really amazing especially if well done.
Because PSVR1 was a nice start. "First-gen tech". And it will be supported at least for 5 years. Not 3. I'd say that's pretty good. "New platform or not", it's still a peripheral with a 5+ million userbase. Games are coming. But don't expect PS4/5-like support.
Familiar yes. But it's not like MS etc. were huge sellers like Uncharted. Like I said, the devs were working on The Omega Collection not too long ago. So adding a VR modus wasn't that difficult. KZ2 and Motorstorm tho? Guerrilla moved on long ago and the Motorstorm dev studio doesn't even exist anymore. Better to just pay indie/3rd party devs to do new 1st party stuff, new racing IPs, etc. And let's see if the rumor about the Horizon Zero Dawn based VR RPG is true, or not. Support is still there.
Eh, what you suggested would be supporting it well for 3 years and then relying on 3rd parties, with the odd game from Sony.
Some infos about it from the end of previous year.Atlus New Year’s Card 2020 Statement: Shin Megami Tensei V, Project Re Fantasy Under Active Development - Persona Central
In Atlus' New Year's card 2020 comment, the company reiterates that Shin Megami Tensei V and Project Re Fantasy are in active development.
Hope it will be on PS4/PS5 :)
For their first VR headset, which released mid-gen, with kinda "old hardware", yeah. It was a nice start. Imo now it should be all about PSVR2. PS5 in Q4 2020, PSVR2 a year later. PSVR1 will still get 1st party support imo. That's for sure. But 5 years should be enough for the first-gen headset. But hey, let's see. Let them announce PS5 first :P I'm just ready for a new PSVR2 headset, because I've played a couple of VR games on PC, too. And man..... it's time for better/next-gen PSVR hardware and controllers.
? Nah, it's a full game. It's like saying Beat Saber was just a demo.The Last Guardian VR thingy was a demo. Until Dawn: Rush of Blood is a normal game. And a pretty good one, too :)
Different games/genres. Both should be done :) I love Until Dawn: Rush of Blood. Like I said: It's easy to play and you can just play a few rounds and stop. Let's see if that Horizon VR rumor is true. And man, I would pay Sanzaru for a VR RPG and a new Sly Cooper + acquire Ready at Dawn for their AAA and VR teams ^_^
Yep. But let's wait and see what next-gen brings, with better hardware and controllers. It will give VR another huge boost :)
No, because that's not possible. You can't implement a VR mode for every game style. You can add an extra VR mode like Concrete Genie did. But for the main game? Nah. Doesn't fit every game.
I agree
If Sony and partnered studios can continue to make licensed games as good as Spidey, hell yeah more of them!
also to add to this Sony would become a licensed IP churning farm like how Activision was back in the day
Wont be either or, have to be quite short sighted if you think all Sony would churn out is licensed games.
it sounded like people wanted Sony to go all out on said licensed games and have a majority of their Studios work on them
Lol sure it did. You got that from people dreaming about Remedy making a Doctor Strange game?
this isn't the first time this License game idea came up
It's just fun speculation, no one is really calling for Sony to undertake a Playstation Marvel Game Universe with all of it's studios.
lol I hope so
We never left
Have to disagree with Hulk.According to most comic heads and comic forums the top 10 most recognizable Super Heroes are
Due to the ip itself Superman, Thor, Hulk, and Green Lantern (for me)ndon't work as videos games. I didn't think Iron Man worked as a concept until I played Anthem. And although that games is heavily flawed it showed the concept was viable.
- Batman
- Spider-Man
- Iron Man
- Superman
- Wolverine
- Captain America
- Hulk
- Thor
- The Flash
- Green Lantern
If the relationship between Sony and Disney is still strong as we think the next exclusive will be Wolverine, The Flash, Captain America or Iron Man.
I want the next game to be Wolverine. But I suspect it'll be Iron Man given that Sony already has the Iron Man license. What I can't work out is who will develop the game...
Iron Man has somehwere between 60-70 suits. The upgrade mechanics alone would be the most intricate gaming has seen if they give it the time and attention it deserves.
