Farpoint 
Developed exclusively for play in PlayStation VR, Farpoint is an unnerving space adventure set on a hostile alien world. After crash landing you have to fight to survive as you explore and uncover the planet's secrets. Your only hope of escape is to keep moving and discover the fate of your team.

VR Worlds is a collection of five different VR experiences that have all been built from the ground up exclusively for the PS VR headset. In PlayStation VR Worlds you will be treated to incredible visuals as you dive beneath the waves, tackle 360 combat as you fight off alien hordes from all around you, or end up in a face-to-face interrogation with a deranged and furious mobster. All brought to you with the immersion that makes VR so unique
