Multiplayer VR "super sword fighting action game" Altair Breaker is officially coming to PSVR2, and while there is no word on a release window as yet, we did get a trailer showing off the title's particular brand of melee combat in action.
In Altair Breaker, players will be able to use sword fighting techniques not physically possible in reality, with high-speed aerial attacks and ludicrous combos all par for the course. The best part is the inclusion of cooperative multiplayer for up to four people, so you can slice and dice towering robots with the whole squad.
Don't forget, you can register your interest for PSVR2 pre-orders starting 15th November, with invites being sent out via email, so make sure to keep an eye on that spam folder. Sony's next foray into the world of virtual reality launches on 22nd February, just a few short months away.
What do you think of Altair Breaker? Will you gather up a few friends and master the blade when it comes to PSVR2? Be on your guard in the comments section below.

Too many first person games for PSVR2. I'm thinking I won't pre-order because there doesn't seem like there'll be a good selection of third person games.
@Milktastrophe
Third person does not lend itself well to VR. Thats just asking for a barf bag.
@PegasusActual93 I don't know about that. So far the best PSVR1 games I've played were third person (like Moss) and I've only gotten nauseous from some first person games (usually involving flying).
@Milktastrophe
Games like Moss are played with a fixed camera which makes for a relatively easy experience. Now traditional third person like say Uncharted in VR, nope you will lose your lunch.
”The best part is the inclusion of cooperative multiplayer for up to four people, so you can slice and dice towering robots with the whole squad.”
And we only need to buy four headsets, which will set us back 2.400€!
that's a steal!
Honestly, I am missing THE real system seller for the new PSVR2 atm. Got an invitation to preorder it today at 11:00 but I dont know if I need it day one. I hope for more launch games which are more saying "hey look at me". For now there is maybe Horizon and Zero Hour and the free upgrade of No Mans Sky. But the rest including this game dont get me sold. Please announce GranTurismo 7 fully playable in PSVR2 then its a nobrainer.
@mazzel Don't forget, you would need four PS5's as well, so call it an even 5k
@Khayl
"pre-orders for PSVR2 will be available starting tomorrow, 16th November"
Slight correction Khayl, pre-orders start on the 15th of November in UK with the invite at 10am GMT, it will of course be different based on region.
@Gooseman42 Good catch, I'm in Australia. Updated
@Gooseman42
It’s actually 11am GMT I think.
@thefourfoldroot1
It may vary between invites to spread them out but mine says 10 am
@Gooseman42
Oh, that sucks. Hopefully there is still stock by 11am lol.
@Khayl oooh right, I was only considering local co-op 🤣
@thefourfoldroot1 it was 10 for me, well a few minutes before as it turned out
@carlos82
Yeah, managed to get mine about quarter to 11. Hyped. Might have to look into freezing myself until Feb.
@thefourfoldroot1 I'm glad you got one, I've seen a few on Twitter seemingly getting their's a little later. Now just to worry about the cost 🙈
@carlos82
Cost? meh! We’ll all be dead soon. Sooner than we all think. Some experiences just shouldn’t be missed if one has the opportunity.
Niiiiiice looks like a solid remastered Nintendo wii u game,..... How much is this headset again? 😜
Looks like a new platform early adopter cash-in attempt
