The PS5 Will Be Getting a Successor to PSVR
PlayStation’s Jim Ryan has revealed that the PS5 will get a successor to PSVR in the future that will be a very different setup to the company’s original attempt at joining the Virtual Reality circus.
In an announcement on the PS Blog, and during an interview with GQ, Ryan stated this will be a whole new VR format, with just the one cord planned to connect it to the console (among the biggest bugbears with PSVR was the plethora of wires you could easily trip over).
There’s nothing concrete on specs and design otherwise, just the assurance Sony has learned from its first attempt at VR. It will, however, utilize the nifty tricks of the PS5’s DualSense controller.
Ryan confirmed the new hardware would not be releasing this year, but assured players that we’ll see more on it at some point in the near future.
PSVR did a modest job of bringing the VR gaming experience to the masses. Horror games have thrived on the hardware, with an exclusive VR version of Resident Evil 7 chief among them. It would be great if a sleeker, more immersive, and affordable PSVR brought the medium to an even wider audience, and especially if it truly kicked virtual reality horror into a new gear.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
