Blood & Truth

Blood & Truth’s intense shooting action made me feel as cool as its characters, immersing me in its world even as its limited movement did its best to remind me I wasn’t in full control. Yes, it traffics in heist movie tropes, but it’s got a strong cast that pulled me into and along its fairly predictable story that I came to be invested in quite quickly. Some levels have multiple paths to encourage replayability, along with collectibles and time-attack challenges, but the sheer joy Blood & Truth left me with on the first playthrough was incentive enough to replay it alone.

Technical issues aside, Blood and Truth is cracking fun and feels like a real system-seller for PSVR. It's such a shining example of the tech at it's best you almost wish it could have been a launch title. Sure, games like Rush of Blood, Doom VFR and Superhot have proved guns and VR are fun, but this is the first time a realistic shooter has felt satisfying and right in VR.

SIE London Studios’ return to PlayStation VR shows they can still make a charming experience similar to when they first showed off with The London Heist. Blood & Truth is just as fun as an afternoon movie marathon with the added bonus of being able to slide into the virtual shoes during those numerous gunfights. That added level of interactivity is what can propel Blood & Truth into being one of the next must-play experiences for PlayStation VR.
