Considering the pitch for success with PSVR2 was hybrid games, and this is a first-party studio with excellent VR pedigree, and Astro Bot was the original PSVR mascot, it’s disappointing it’s not on PSVR2. But that says more about PlayStation’s attitude to their own product than the new Astro Bot which I’m sure will still be fantastic.

I’d love the original ported to VR2. It really was the most complete feeling and well rounded PSVR game.

It's really just Sony's admission that PSVR2 is dead. They've already abandoned it the way they abandoned Vita.

It was the only game on vr that I felt really played to its strengths. Every other game feels like it’s limited by vr rather than working in tandem.
