Battlezone on PlayStation VR – A Brief Take

E3 2016 - Battlezone

Battlezone is a launch title that I plan on getting for PlayStation VR come October 13th and coincidentally, the first PS VR game that I also tried. Having had a chance to play it after the PlayStation keynote on Monday night, I was quickly shown the wonders VR can deliver. But perhaps more so than anything that was directly offered to me as a player, Battlezone tapped into my imagination of being transported to the Grid. Once there, within minutes I was maneuvering around tanks, strafe shooting, and taking down incoming flying enemies. Not bad for somebody who has never played the game, let alone strapped on a VR headset.

This is perhaps the closest I’ve ever been to the world of TRON (a place I’d live if I could) and damn was it a joy. After some hands on time, both Allegra and I stuck around to talk to the gang at Rebellion about their PS VR exclusive title.

Does Battlezone seem like the type of game you’d want to play?
