"The Persistence is First Person Stealth Horror exclusively for PS4 & PSVR. The Persistence is procedurally generated. Every time you die and a new character is awoken by IRIS, the layout of the ship has changed. Every life will play out differently, with different enemies to face, items to find and power-ups to collect. Survival requires you to be stealthy and VR is the perfect match for this. Sneaking around and hiding behind cover; it's second nature in VR to just lean round or peek over cover to gain the advantage Your friends can also help out by connecting to the game with their phone or tablet and hacking into the ship's computer. Once in the ship's system, players get to control doors, freeze or distract enemies, disable traps and find hidden items to scavenge for the VR player. Be aware though, sometimes the tablet player gets rewarded if you die, do you trust your friends?" Read less

It's basically a rouge-like System Shock. Which is interesting... But I hate rogue likes. It's very clearly designed for VR with non-VR really awkwardly tacked on. So if you ever wanted System Shock in VR, but a rouge-like, you might actually enjoy this game a …

This game isn't for me. But I think it's one people here might actually enjoy.

It's basically a rouge-like System Shock. Which is interesting... But I hate rogue likes. It's very clearly designed for VR with non-VR really awkwardly tacked on. So if you ever wanted System Shock in VR, but a rouge-like, you might actually enjoy this game a lot.

I can't really recommend it for controller users though. Like it works, but I feel like the systems here would work so much better in VR... It feels clunky in not-VR space.
