The Playroom VR

The Playroom VR

A virtual reality game, titled The Playroom VR, was released in October of 2016. It contains a series of asymmetrical multiplayer minigames to demonstrate the features of PlayStation VR (running on the PlayStation 4). It comes free with the VR headset and contains six minigames: Cat and Mouse, Monster Escape, Wanted, Toy Wars, Ghost House, and Robots Rescue. The Playroom VR received "generally favorable reviews" according to review aggregator Metacritic based on six critic reviews. Simon Fitzgerald of Push Square called it a "good collection of couch co-op mini-games that demonstrate the capabilities of the VR headset superbly. Although a few of the games you'll play once and never touch again, Robots Rescue is a standout experience that you'll wish was a fully-fledged game in itself". Robots Rescue would later be made into a fully-fledged game called Astro Bot Rescue Mission.
