Next year Sony has promised us that we’ll be seeing even more VR content. In the trailer below, you’ll see a mixture of newly released VR games and upcoming VR titles in 2018.

Upcoming PlayStation VR Games in 2018
Here are some of the highlighted PlayStation VR games that’ll be releasing some time next year.
Bravo Team
Bravo Team by Supermassive Games is set in a fictional modern day Eastern European city. When your escort mission goes wrong and results in the President’s assassination, a country threatens to tear itself apart…and your team along with it.
Features:
- TEAMWORK: Teamwork is at the core of the game. Bravo Team has been developed to allow both single player and online 2 player co-op. Player co-operation is key. Verbal communication between players is essential to make the decisions you need to survive and avoid (or navigate) enemy detection.
- INTENSE IMMERSIVE ACTION: Bravo Team takes you on a heart-pumping journey of intense combat and split-second decision making. With the feel of an action movie, Bravo Team offers exciting combat situations, multiple scenario outcomes and a seamless, continuous environment to create a wholly immersive experience.
- TOTAL CONTROL: Bravo Team puts you directly into the action. You’ll need to lean round corners to take out targets or duck for cover if under fire. You’ll raise the aim controller to view through the iron sight or hold above your head to blind fire.
- DECISIONS UNDER FIRE: You’ll make constant split-second tactical decisions about when to take cover, when to reload and when to engage. Should you lay down suppressing fire or try a different route? Who takes that new weapon? Players will need to think fast and act quickly to survive.
Release date is set for March 6, 2018. You can pre-order the title today for $39.99.
This particular title is an action-adventure puzzle game coming to Sony PlayStation VR. The story begins with a mysterious book in a grand, vaulted library that opens and transports the reader to a vast, magical world. You will be playing as a heroic character named Quill who is a brave mouse.
Quill is on a journey in a remote forest settlement who’s fated to be the key in a much larger story. You’ll be guiding Quill while also directly manipulating the field of play as your own character. Mutual communication and shared victories strengthen their connection to one another.
Moss is set to release some time in February of 2018. You can pre-order the game today for $29.99 on the PlayStation store.
The Inpatient
In The Inpatient, you’ll be discovering who you are before it’s all too late. This PS VR exclusive title is set in the Blackwood Sanatorium taking place 60 years prior to the hit title, ‘Until Dawn.’
