PlayStation VR horror Here They Lie had plenty of interesting ideas, so it's nice to see developer Tangentlemen stick with it. The game will be getting a meaty update starting tomorrow, which will make it playable outside of virtual reality. There'll be support for the base PlayStation 4 as well as the PS4 Pro, with 4K and HDR support on offer.
But Sony's supercharged system will also now be leveraged in PlayStation VR, with many visual effects added on the new hardware. And the entire game's been spruced up whichever format you play on, with better tutorial screens, anti-aliasing, improved controller options, a Chapter Select menu, and enhanced texture streaming. There'll also be subtitles available outside of virtual reality.
And you need not worry if you've already purchased the game, as you'll score all of the aforementioned for free as part of the release's impending patch. Anyone who buys the game after 21st February will also be able to play in or out of virtual reality for a single fee. Some good post-release support for an interesting title, then. Has this convinced you to pick it up?

Can't say I've heard of this but may give it a go for VR, does it use move controllers? As so far the best experiences I've had have been with these, I Expect You to Die been a particular highlight. I've got Resi 7 for my horror fix but I haven't given it a proper go in VR yet but this could be a nice addition to my collection. I just wish they'd make these things a bit longer
@carlos82 Uses the DualShock 4. It's pretty atmospheric, though I had a problem with the visuals being too blurry.
This is getting really confusing. I would be interested in some games that have been labeled "PSVR" games but can be played without it, but tracking those games is a huge hassle. That's why it's easier to just skip any games that are labeled "PSVR" games, even if they can also be played normally.
@Mahe It's not really that confusing to be honest.
@get2sammyb It is!
Like, there was that PSVR Tennis title a while ago. Going by memory, I have no idea if it was a "PSVR only" title or "PSVR optional" title. And that was a title I was interested in!
Sure, I could try googling all these games where the situation is unclear, but it gets into a huge hassle real quick, and there's conflicting info out there.
