Thumper is out now in North America, with a European launch scheduled to follow on 13th October. The so-called rhythm violence release has been garnering glowing reviews all over the web, with our verdict set to follow over the coming days. We've fallen in love with it on the occasions that we've previewed it in the past, so it's probably safe to expect a positive score.

The game can, of course, be played in its entirety with PlayStation VR – though this is optional if you're not picking up the headset. The game's developer DROOL has also confirmed day one PS4 Pro support, which will see the title rendered in native 4K resolution. Sony's supercharged system will also improve the virtual reality experience, bumping the framerate up to 90 frames-per-second.

This is the perfect purchase for early adopters in other words.
