10 Most Promising PlayStation VR Games Coming In 2016

1. No Man's Sky Even though it's not been officially confirmed, when Sony were asked about whether No Man's Sky will have PlayStation VR support on launch, they replied that "It's an interesting assumption", and refused to rule out that it will happen. It'd certainly be cruel at this point if the suggestive 'no comment' turned out to be a 'no'. It's no secret that No Man's Sky devs Hello Games have been playing around with VR technology for their ambitious game, and it's easy to see why. VR is a perfect fit for space-based and exploration games, so exploring the billions of worlds in No Man's Sky using the headset sounds like a match made in the stars. VR would serve a strategic purpose in No Man's Sky too, as having a perspective of what's going on through the left and right windows of your spacecraft while engaging in a space battle or speeding through a canyon on some uncharted planet could prove crucial to prevent your craft from crashing. Both No Man's Sky and PlayStation VR are mind-blowing pieces of technology in their own ways, and a combination of the two could offer a deep, immersive experience that would've been inconceivable just a few years ago. Is VR the new frontier or a false dawn? Let us know what you think in the comments, or share your own views with millions around the world by writing for WhatCulture.
