The free update to the original game will add in a pancake play option from 26th September, which means you can enjoy the entire experience with a DualSense in your oversized gaming chair. The press release hints: “C-Smash VRS New Dimension comes to PS5 as a third-person futuristic sports action title, with tons of new gameplay mechanics, animations, and visual upgrades, as well as revolutionary hybrid online play between PS5 and PSVR2 players.”
That’s right: you’ll be able to play online against PSVR2 players with your DualSense – or vice versa. It’ll be interesting to see how that’s been balanced, and which group comes out on top.
If you already own C-Smash VRS, then you’ll be able to play New Dimension free of charge. Likewise, if you pick up the game to play in pancake mode and eventually purchase a PSVR2 headset at a later date, you’ll have access to the virtual reality mode as well.
From our perspective, this is a great way to breathe new life into the title, and we’re looking forward to enjoying it all over again later in the year.
