The rapid PS3 first-person shooter Bulletstorm will be bringing its distinct combat style to PSVR2, after being officially announced for Meta Quest 2 during a livestream earlier today. The original, developed by People Can Fly, launched in 2011 on the PS3 – and you can find our original review through here if you dare exploring our archives.
Of course, it was later revived for PS4 as part of a remaster with expanded mechanics and the inclusion of Duke Nukem. Despite being a traditional FPS at first glance, this release shares more in common with arcade games, as it’s got a fun scoring system that rewards you for taking out your foes as stylishly as possible.
This appears to be the complete game for PSVR2, so don’t expect many compromises in terms of gameplay – in fact, the breakneck feel of the combat is likely to be elevated exponentially in virtual reality. There’s no release date just yet, but we imagine this will deploy later this year.

This was a nice surprise announcement. Hopefully it works well in VR
Can't wait for that one.
No way! I was thinking about playing this game again but on VR will be even better
Excellent, ports of older games like this, if this is done well, are a great idea and a great to get more VR games using less resources. I'd love to see the PS3 greats get VR ports.
But PSVR is dead on arrival...
I'm actually excited about a PSVR2 game!
Bulletstorm is so utterly amazing!!! Criminally overlooked, a damn shame there was never a sequel and this actually makes me debate getting a PSVR2............if there were actually a few more games for it I had any interest in.
Just confirmed that Vampire the Masquerade: Justice and The 7th Guest are also heading to PSVR 2! Good times ahead!🙃
@Muttt Only in your reality mate
@Trousersnake I don't think it is. But some do. Read some of the opinion pieces on the site.
It's doing well for me, loads of games and releases like this and other being announced on a regular basis. Not perfect, but pretty healthy for me.
I'm being serious here but if one game could make me want to buy a psvr2 then i cant think of a better one..i've got to check my bank account..
This has actually piqued my interest! I loved the game when it first came out, and I would imagine it being a blast in VR. I've never played a VR game, but this might actually tempt me into getting a PSVR2. I never thought that would happen...
Oh this is a must-play. The game is hilarious fun on 2D, but I'm so over 2D shooters at this point, and this whole game in VR?? Yes, please!
@Loamy "Folklore" Also, yes please!
Bulletstorm is a very fun game! I bet it would be incredible in VR!
Yes!!! I love this game and can't wait to buy it all over again in VR! 🙂
@Trousersnake They were clearly being sarcastic.
i've actually really been enjoying the psvr2 headset so far, im really excited about this and re4 remake, i really hope they port re7 over as well.
@Northern_munkey I was actually thinking the same thing. Though I don’t know I can really justify that kind of expenditure for one game (so far). And that’s if it even translates well to VR.
@DETfaninATL one of favourite platinums, VR could be fun
@DETfaninATL i agree but sometimes it feels good to be indulgent..
