Today I purchased the PSVR bundle that comes with Blood & Truth and Everybody's Golf VR. I was thinking about waiting for the Iron Man bundle, but the price didn't really make sense to me, being that it was the same price with fewer games and it's only $40 on its own.

Anyway, I was able to grab Astro Bot and Farpoint, brand new, for $10 each. I also grabbed Firewall Zero Hour with the Aim Controller. Since I already have a PCVR setup, anything that is everywhere I'll always grab on that; but I am wondering what other PSVR exclusives I should check out.

Astrobot... No question... On sale for $10 right now too. Drop what you're doing, get it, play it, and love it.

Edit: tl;dr oops, see now that you did get it.... Your good.. go play it!

Outside the ones I mentioned earlier, if you have the time and money. I'd say superhypercube, rigs, and Vr worlds are worth a go but I wouldnt call them must haves.

I really enjoyed No Heroes Allowed VR, I think that's an exclusive. It's a top down strategy entry in the Badman! series. It feels like you're directing units on a tabletop game, it's pretty cool.

As Tahnit and Svejk say: Buy Astro Bot: Rescue Mission! Amazing game with fantastic level-design, controls and music.

If you don't have it for PC, (not an exclusive) I recommend Thumper. Same with Tetris Effect. Both are great in PSVR.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea but if you like adventure games I also recommend Deracine.

Edit, oh, and Concrete Genie!

I think you are covered with a lot of joy with Astro Bot and Blood and Truth (even it being just ok....)

You're in for a treat if you grab a RE7 Complete with a discount, Wipeout is awesome and don't forget Beat Saber my man.

Please get WipEout Omega Collection. It's already amazing outside of VR but in VR it's just something else.

If you have a decent PCVR setup then there aren't really too many exclusives to PSVR.

Astro Bot, Resident Evil VII, Firewall, Blood & Truth, and Wipeout Omega Collection are the big ones. But you might as well also buy Farpoint, Deracine, and Rush of Blood to help justify the purchase. Iron Man is definitely gonna be the next big one though, download the free demo if you haven't already.

Deracine takes place in an orphanage and you basically control a fairy that interacts with the kids. It's a puzzle/adventure game sort of like Myst but with less puzzles and more wandering around. It's got great atmosphere and story and even takes a few dark turns at times. Worst part of the game is that the movement is "Warp movement", like you move from node to node rather than actually walking. Everything else is quite good.

Outside of what ever had said, I really liked Trover Saves The Universe. If you like Rick and Morty, you will definitely enjoy it.

Yeah, I think the standout exclusives have all been covered.

You're good on Astro Bot and Blood & Truth.

Then grab Wipeout Omega Collection, Resident Evil VII Gold, and Until Dawn: Rush of Blood.

Dreams should be compatible soon and then Iron Man is the next big release.

Wipeout for sure and should be a priority. Rush of Blood too.

Not exclusives but Rez, Tetris Effect, and Moss are all damn great too.

Is RE7 better first play through with VR or Pro HDR 2D? Still not sure if I want to play it first on ps5 for slight improvements? (If any)

Blood and Truth - it has some amazing levels.

Oh you already have them. Those have been my favorites so far.

VR. The game will undoubtedly be blurrier, but the improvements in audio and the feeling of presence are 100% worth it. Plus, you get some better gameplay thanks to being able to aim with your head.

Let me know what you think of the psvr. I've been curious about it, but after playing on my cousin's PC set up, I'm not sure how it compares.

PS VR Worlds has tons of mini games. Very fun and exclusive. Wipeout is amazing and you already have Firewall Zero Hour (best PSVR game by far).
Enjoy OP!

Edit sorry didn't see the exclusive in op
Add Wipeout to this list for sure

Superhot was the first 'oh shit' experience. I still jump into endless mode and it feels like tai chi.

Everybody's put like a thousand hours into some version(s) of Skyrim at this point, but huge vistas and some good jump scares in the dungeons can make this worth going back through.

I marathoned No Man's Sky during the start of lockdown and while your mileage may vary - it's weirdly stiff and menu driven- the dogfighting and alien surprises were impressive.

Astrobot is almost perfect. My only complaint is that it feels like a sit back and relax game, but demands a considerable amount of head and torso movement.

Beat Saber is fantastic, though I already like prefix-step music. It's hard as nails but has a lot of options to make tracks simple fun.

If you can get In Death for cheap, it's a classic sort-of-bad-controls, fun aesthetics VR indie game that's a novelty to bust out once in a while.

Sairento has awful orientalism but some ridiculously fun movement mechanics and satisfying shooting. It crashes on me after a few missions but I still find myself playing it.

The Last Guardian demo is exceptional.

One I rarely see mentioned but consider to be one of the better exclusives is Statik. If you're in to puzzle games, this one's really good.

Same boat as you OP.

Resident Evil 7, I couldn't make it out the starting screen. Having my entire room turn into the mobile home was too much for my senses.

I'm still stuck in the demo discs, lmao.

I also quite like carnival games + Dick Wilde for pick up and play fun.

Resident evil 7 is the best experience I've had with PSVR. You won't be disappointed. It's the only experience that's truly made me a believer in the future of VR.
