MOSEY WITH YOUR PS VITA
The under-rated PS4 Remote Play feature
unlocks worlds of possibility
I don’t enjoy being away from the things I like, which is why my
PS Vita is on me at all times and why I find it so hard to leave my
living room when I’m deep into a PS4 game. Remote play helps
me out, letting me stream my PS4 to my Vita whenever I want.
Sure, it’s not always the same as the big screen – but grinding
out enemies in Final Fantasy XIV and Dragon Quest XI in bed is a
blast, and who doesn’t want to mosey around the world of Red
Dead Redemption 2 as Arthur Morgan from their hotel room?PSYCHONAUTS IN
THE RHOMBUS OF RUIN
Your cynical inner voice says this is a marketing tool
to remind you how amazing Psychonauts is ahead of
Psychonauts 2. Your gamer voice will tell it to shut up
and enjoy one of PS VR’s best virtual adventures.16
PERSONA 4: GOLDEN
Where Persona 5 went bigger on PS4, this
ultimate version of Persona 4 nails the warmth
of a small-town high school setting. Filled with
timeless characters, the Investigation Team dig
into a murder mystery and befriend demons.TXK
Bright lights and flashing colours. That’s the
emergency services coming to move you on, as
you remain still and engrossed in this pulse-
pounding shooter that’s always ready to turn

PS VR first-person shooter that manages to make
you feel like you’re playing through a slow-mo action
movie. The free Superhot Forever update adds even
more challenges. Make time for VR bullet time.ACCOUNTING +
One of PlayStation’s funniest games is a dark,
twisted journey into the world of accounting. It’s
an Inception-like dive into increasingly bizarre and
frequently hilarious scenarios that will scratch the
itch of any Rick And Morty fan.MOSS
Guide adorable mouse heroine Quill through a
fantasy storybook world full of virtual puzzles, fights
with insects, and perfectly pitched Disney influences.
There’s no need to say cheese, because you’ll be
smiling as you play, all day long.BEAT SABER
PS VR firmly on and PS Move controllers in hand,
Beat Saber feels like the game both pieces of
hardware were made for. In it you have to master
songs and challenges by swiping your neon swords
through the air, and dodging with your head.THE ELDER SCROLLS V: SKYRIM VR
Though compromises have been made to texture
detail and controls, you get all of The Elder Scrolls V:
Skyrim, including the expansions, inside PS VR. The
scale and organic nature of the world at your feet
overcomes any shortcomings.113retrostationTEARAWAY
One of the best platformers on the
system, it makes terrific use of the entire
PS Vita to create a unique experience:
camera, touchscreen, touchpad: it’s
all here. The PS4 version has more content, but it
remains more intimate and special on PS Vita.TRANSFERENCE
Come home to these ghosts in the machine. Traipsing
through each family member’s surreal vision of the
apartment they share in first-person horror is a
wonderfully dreadful experience. Trespassers will be
thoroughly spooked.th
FARPOINT
This sci-fi shooter is a brilliant showcase for the
PS Aim controller, a versatile bit of kit that makes the
satisfying range of weapons feel weighty and real.
The game matches it, delivering a strong story and
challenging co-op for great VR action.19

DANGANRONPA: TRIGGER
HAPPY HAVOC
If being trapped in a school for the exceptionally
gifted weren’t scary enough, a murderous bear
is goading everyone to kill their classmates.
Investigations and trial scenes; thinking caps on.

UNCHARTED: GOLDEN ABYSS
Nathan Drake proves it’s not the size of the
package that counts, but what you do with it in
this prequel expedition. Packed with Uncharted
charm, this pulp action adventure is the biggest
spectacle on the little handheld.

KNOCKOUT LEAGUE
Punching things is possibly the least creative use of
the VR medium, but when it’s used to create a classic
arcade boxing sim that plays like a brutal puzzle
puncher, it’s irresistible. It’s also good for you: it
tracks your calorie count as you work up a sweat.
APEX CONSTRUCT
This story-driven FPS demonstrates five-to-eight
hour adventures can work in PS VR. Building its
narrative organically through physically exploring the
game’s world while fending off mechanical creatures
with a trusted bow and arrow is a delight. Ambitious.
