Now, look, the fun and games stop when the VR game will actually scare the crap out of you. I’ve personally avoided playing scary games of any form and live a happy life partly due to that decision. But for those of you that are braver than me, RESIDENT EVIL 7: BIOHAZARD will challenge you in virtual reality. If you’re not sure if you’re up to that challenge, you can always try out the FREE DEMO of the prologue first. It fully supports PlayStation VR!

Star Trek: Bridge Crew is without a doubt the most recognizable of game brands and one of the first VR games that really pushes a cooperative experience. Players team up aboard an actual Star Trek spaceship and man different stations on the bridge. Hilarity can often ensue as players’ motions, and reactions to tasks are realistically relayed into the avatars. STAR TREK: BRIDGE CREW is also the rare type of game that is available across all three major VR platforms and features cross play.
