  The Exorcist: Legion VR is easily one of the more effective horror games on the platform to date. Its reliance on relative unease rather than jump-scares makes it stand out from other horror games on the platform, while the number of challenging puzzles gives the title some real substance. While there's no doubt that more effective horror games can hit VR in the near future, The Exorcist is one of the better ones that you can find today.

  The Exorcist: Legion VR launches at a perfect time, near Halloween. While the adventure may be incredibly short, it is one that groups may enjoy, to see how others react to the horrors that await within. However, much like a scary movie or haunted house, once you know where the scares are located, they don’t have the same oomph as the first time through.

  It honestly felt like I could hear the voices inside my own head and I could feel the heat from my crucifix as I stared down the faces of demon and eradicated the evil within. The Exorcist: Legion VR will turn even the most hardened horror fans into whimpering piles of fear.

  I had high hopes that developer Wolf & Wood would turn things around with Idle Hands. Unfortunately, this episode is a considerable step backward for the series. Lacking much of the atmosphere and scares that made First Rites stand out, there’s little here to keep horror fans engaged. And though we finally got to use the exorcist’s bag of tricks, the uninspired way in which they’re implemented adds very little to the experience. Add to this the fact that you can see everything the episode has to offer in the time it takes to say your Hail Marys, it’s pretty hard to recommend The Exorcist: Legion VR  – Chapter 2: Idle Hands to all but the most horror-starved players out there.

  Fun Train has delivered a game that, for a franchise title, is surprising in its quality. Though there are some minor technical hiccups, content-wise, this game stands with the best offerings of its legendary franchise. It is often said that The Exorcist is the scariest film ever produced. The Exorcist: Legion VR is scarier.

  Si l'on aurait aimé la présence de véritables énigmes et une utilisation plus intelligente du kit du parfait curé, le titre fait montre d'une science de l'angoisse très maîtrisée et parvient à esquiver les grands poncifs de l'horreur en VR (jump scare et consorts) pour privilégier un effroi distillé, qui monte et puissance et s'avère diablement efficace, tout en s'offrant des clins d'oeil à quelques films cultes pas piqués des hannetons.
