So whether you’re after immersive new gaming experiences, or merely looking to show off your fancy new tech to your friends (and justify that not inconsiderate outlay…) here are Telegraph Gaming’s pick of the PSVR2 games released so far. That’s not to say there isn’t gold to be found and fun to be had in the launch line-up, mind. It goes without saying Sony would sell considerably more PSVR2s if they tasked their other top tier studios Naughty Dog and Insomniac Games to create The Last of Us and Spider-Man titles, and then threw the rest of their budget at Valve to port PC VR smash Half-Life: Alyx to the platform. The not-so-good news is that bespoke blockbuster experiences like Horizon Call of the Mountain are the exception rather than the norm, and the bulk of that catalogue comprises ports of titles originally released for much less powerful machines. The good news is that with over 30 titles available to play from day one, PSVR2 certainly doesn’t lack for software support.
