PlayStation VR First-Person Shooter Farpoint Launches Alongside Gun Paripheral Controller This May

You can blast some aliens in VR very soon.

PlayStation VR hasn't had too many games released for it since it launched. Resident Evil 7 just dropped which was a real treat to play in VR, but other than that there hasn't been too much. However, that's going to change very soon!

​

On May 16th, PlayStation VR owners can pick up Farpoint, a sci-fi FPS that takes advantage of Sony's new Aim controller. The Aim controller is a peripheral used with the Move controllers that takes the shape of a gun similar to an AR or SMG. The game is about a man who goes to look for scientists investigating an anomaly near Jupiter. The man is then teleported to an unknown alien planet and must fight for his survival.

@PlayStation Just confirmed: @ImpulseGear’s sci-fi #PSVR FPS Farpoint launches May 16 alongside the PlayStation VR Aim Controller.​

In related news, the PSVR is selling incredibly well. The only console VR headset has sold upwards of 900,000 units and is on track to sell a million by mid-April. Sony also noted that they are aware of the shortages and are planning to have more readily available in April.
