Share

PlayStation Move-enabled games on PlayStation VR (PSVR) bring you into the heart of the game and add an extra layer of immersion. Rather than taking away from the experience, Move controllers make playing in VR a lot more fun. That’s why we’ve collected the best PlayStation VR games that use PlayStation Move controllers for you to check out.

Beat Saber

Our Favorite

Enjoy original songs on the Beat Saber soundtrack while you slice your way through the levels. The goal is to cut each block as directed. As they fly at you, the blocks have a symbol indicating how they need to be cut. The more accurate your cut – the more points you get. This is one surefire way to get yourself up and active without having to leave the comfort of your own home. You can find Beat Saber on the PlayStation Store or, if you’re new to VR, you can buy this PSVR bundle on Amazon that includes two games!

Superhot

In Superhot, you can freeze and slow time, so you can take out all of your enemies before their bullets reach you. Use the items around you to help in your endeavors and enjoy the rush of what The Flash must feel like when he’s fighting his own battles.

Get started with these fantastic titles

There are plenty of games to enjoy playing with a DualShock 4 or an Aim Controller. Plenty of games that simulate shooting a bow and arrow or firing off a gun. If you’re looking for something a little more hands-on and engaging, than these titles are perfect for you.

That’s why Beat Saber is our featured favorite. It’s a game that allows you to be incredibly active while jamming out to several different original songs that will blow your mind. Not just that, but it’s also a game that you can keep coming back to over and over without getting bored.

If you can, play some Blood and Truth as well. It’s a fast-paced action shooter with some beautiful set pieces to immerse you in the action hero genre. If you want to take to the skies, check out Ace Combat 7. When you add one of these amazing HOTAS flight joysticks to your VR experience, Ace combat becomes a joy to play.
