A free Iron Man VR demo is out now on PS VR
Sony has dropped an extended free demo for the upcoming Iron Man VR game, a PlayStation VR exclusive due later this summer.
Sony announced the demo on thePlayStation blogalongside a pair of new PS VR bundles for the game, which was originally due to release in May but waspostponed until 3 July.
The demo is “a small slice of the main game,” according to the blog post, but it actually sounds like there’s plenty in it to try out:
Anyone who plays the demo will unlock an exclusive Molten Lava armour decoration to use in the full game too.
You canpre-order Iron Man VR now, though itrequires both a PlayStation VR headset and two PlayStation Move controllers. Move controllers are sold out everywhere right now, but luckily if you don’t have all the kit, the new bundles should help out.
In the UK, there’s a£84.99 bundlethat pairs the game with two Move controllers. That means you’ll still need a PS VR headset and a PlayStation camera to get set up. The£259 PS VR Starter Packis probably the best bet, especially since it’ll be dropping down to just £200 from 25 May until 8 June as part of theDays of Play sale.
If you’re in the US the$349.99 setis a bit more comprehensive. This includes the VR headset, PS Camera, two PS Move controllers, Iron Man VR, and the VR demo disc that comes with the headset normally. If you just need Move controllers and don’t want to buy the full VR kit again, your best bet is probably going second-hand oneBayor similar.
Both bundles launch on 3 July alongside the game, but pre-orders are open now.
