Certainly looks stunning, hope it gets a physical release.

@__jamiie yep let's just say i won't be buying anything VR again from Sony!! Mugs like me spent £530 on this thing & that's the thanks you get.

And another reason to see Sony have zero interest in supporting there own headset.

@WaveBoy that's the most frustrating part, the Hugh potential this thing has. And yes ocean descent was/is incredible. Wish that would of been made into a full game of some sort. For me personally it could of been some stunning rail shooter.

@JP80 yes I made the same mistake, its just the Sony fanboys that are in denial. And can't face up to it being a failure.

I made the mistake of buying VR2 at launch. Brilliant hardware let down by Sony!! Astrobot on VR1 is amazing. When it was announced the new game will be PS5 only. That for me was the end of VR2. I don't care what anyone else thinks. Yes there are some gems out there & a few possibly coming. But it won't make a difference now. The price cut Says it all, off load stock soon as possible. Let's just say I won't be buying VR again especially from Sony!!

Game looks amazing, besides the controller.

Shame they didn't give us Astrobot on VR2 & this controller.

@WaveBoy I get what your saying, but for me considering the age of VR2. A revision isn't the problem, it's like you said the killer games are the issue. It seems bizarre how a company can invest in producing a piece of tech, which must of cost millions. To basically not giving a toss about it in the most important area GAMES!!

@Kidfunkadelic83 I know it's spoilers:(

Can't keep watching these videos it's spoiling it for me. I want to experience this stuff first hand.

@PuppetMaster @WaveBoy I get what your saying, but unless you invest and take risks. New hardware will never prevale. That's like saying we won't invest in PS6, what if it fails. VR2 is an incredible piece of kit, so much potential as a new medium Sony & devs should be striving to push this, not abandon it out the gate.

@WaveBoy couldn't agree more mate, unfortunately i think VR2 is finished. Sony has proved this with not bringing Astrobot to VR2, obviously they don't want to invest in there own tech. The demo shown looks stunning, imagine that scene where the water parts in VR. Its damn frustrating we won't experience it.

@DarianStarfrog even more reasons to make amazing games like this in VR then. It might drive sales of the headset. At the end of the day that's what sells hardware, I assume you have PS5, if the games were ***** you wouldn't buy the thing.

Looks amazing, but should of been on VR2 if you've played Rescue mission on VR1 you'll get it. If you haven't you won't.

@RoomWithaMoose I agree with most of what you said. But I love games like Gears & Uncharted. We need more games like that but with the gorgeous art style of souls, that would suit me. This is the problem with the industry. Dev costs has stifled creativity, so its just endless cut & paste to play it safe.

The polls speak for themselves, the industry is drowning in this *****. Fair enough some may love em, that's ok. But this trend has to stop, personally I love the original God of War games. I would like something that looks like souls but plays more old school, is that really to much to ask

Same ***** then basically.

No doubt Megaman soulslike, roguelite, Metroidvania ***** incoming then.

From the votes obviously people agree, what ***** this is. But Sony choose to throw money at crap like this instead of developing great AAA single player experiences or more to the point VR2 quality content. After mugs like me spent over 500 quid on the thing. Sony need to get with the programme & seriously think about what made them great in the first place.

These are the sort of games Sony should be investing in. Unfortunately this probably won't get a physical release. Twenty quid is a nice price but still to much for a download for me personally. Will wait for sale.

Would like em all, but don't buy Edge magazine anymore. Haven't for years, it went down the pan ages ago. Reviews are crap now, the articles within are rubbish, got thinner, and most of the mag is adverts for the industry. When it first came out all those years ago it was brilliant. But the industry/consoles were more exciting so that probably reflected in the magazine.

16 bit will always be king of this genre, much like the Shmup scene. But this looks promising.

My favourite genre of gaming, practically all I play is retro shmups. This looks great, but have heard mixed reviews about people who have played the demo. I will wait to see reviews before I jump. Personally not retro enough for me.

Looks amazing, but it should be on PSVR 2!!

I bought one at launch, wish I hadn't. The price was a lot, but I hoped for that big investment. Sony were invested to, in making some incredible VR experiences. But basically they have stuck two fingers up to the user base. Let's just say I won't be buying VR again, especially from Sony I'm done.

@Daz1380 yep did the same, shame really, nice tech let down by wi-fi. Well at least mine anyway.

@SystemAddict couldn't agree more, all this soulslike crap just destroys the fun in gaming for me. Can't stand when you fight for your life to kill a boss. Only to be killed instantly from the next, because you can't level up or haven't got a particular power. For some it may spur them on for me I just get pissed off & walk away.

At last something that appeals to me.

@invictus4000 yes I'm with you 💯 just like you I spent over £500 on the damn thing. The least they can do is support it !! And yes if they would of announced Rescue mission as well. Then i would of felt some consolation. For me personally I'm done with VR especially from Sony I won't be buying VR3 that's for sure.

@invictus4000 couldn't agree more, if they can't be bothered to bring the new Astrobot to VR2. At least convert resue mission for God's sake!!

@dark_knightmare2 yes the tides are turning, gamers are getting sick of em. It's about time devs get the message as well. The PS3/360 era was the golden age for 3rd person story games we need them back. If the devs poured the time & resources into this genre then everyone could be happy. The new Gears is going to amazing along with Astrobot. It's about time Linearity made a return.

@TurboTom that's fair enough, the VR2 uses one wire. From headset to usb.

What a joke of a preview, lost me with the oh it's an Uncharted style area. Heaven forbid its "LINEAR" as if its unacceptable!! Has it not crossed your mind that some of us gamers welcome linearity In games. I will wait for a proper review, or will judge it myself.

@TurboTom PSVR 1 had some really good stuff on it. Dont get me wrong the support wasn't strong. But when Sony committed to releasing VR2, i really thought they were serious about the tech & thought the support was going to be something special. Its really annoying as the headset has brilliant tech. But yes I was wrong it looks like they couldn't careless. Obviously sales were low. But without great content what did they expect. Great software drives hardware that's the way it works. Let's just say I'm done with VR especially from Sony. I will keep the headset for now at least.

@TrickyDicky99 hey I own one, I know exactly where I stand with regards to VR2. Sony has let it sink like PS Vita.

Personally that Says it all !! an official kick in the teeth from the developer himself. They should at least give us Astrobot rescue mission, being as its VR to VR experience. Surely that's not to much to ask for.

@TurboTom if you played rescue mission on VR1, Believe me you would have a different outlook. Dont get me wrong the new one looks amazing, & I will buy it. But for us VR2 users it really feels like a in the teeth.

@Absymbel my expectations are always low now. Not many gems in the sea of ***** that's out there unfortunately.

@Absymbel yes it has mate, hopefully soon. With regards to a new Axelay I wish 🤞 it worries me they will probably spoil it nowadays though. Adding unnecessary crap to appeal to the new crowd. Instead of keeping old school.

Looks amazing, best surprise of the show, definitely getting this. Hopefully a physical release day one

Let's hope it is August, seems to get pushed further away.

That's the ***** show the industry is now, the forever obsession with tech specs & the cry babies wanting 4k, 60fps, raytracing is never ending. Unfortunately the ones moaning about dev times & lack of games are the cause of the whole problem. Expectations are so high its getting ridiculous.

Game looks crap anyway, no doubt demon souls in a different skin. Definitely not interested now.

Looks good, but you can't beat the pixel art of the originals 👌

Stunning game for sure, but a VR2 mode or rescue mission VR upgrade would be great Sony thanks!!

4k 8k 60fps, couldn't care less, its about great games. Something devs & gamers alike seem to have forgotten about.

This actually proves that gamers obviously want change from the ever ending openworld, roguelite, Metroidvania ***** that we get week in week out. Wake up Sony & the industry!!

@OldGamer999 couldn't agree more 👏

It proves to me Sony don't give a ***** anymore about what gamers want. They have got complacent, obviously the lack of competition has made then arrogant. I'm more pissed off I bought VR2, no real support & commitment for the hardware, especially now with Astrobot!! They obviously don't care about there fanbase. Let's just say I won't be buying VR3 & PS6 for that matter.
