Doom 3 VR Edition Coming to PS4

Six more games are coming to PlayStation VR. One of them will be Doom 3: VR Edition, which will see us revisit the third installment of id Software's iconic FPS series in virtual reality.

Today, Sony announced six games designed for the PlayStation VR headset. The first of the revealed titles is Doom 3: VR Edition, a new version of the third installment of the well-known FPS series. So far not much has been disclosed, but the post on the official PlayStation blog includes first screenshots and a teaser trailer, available below.

Doom 3: VR Edition will offer all the content prepared for the third installment of Doom, including both expansions: Resurrection of Evil and The Lost Mission. All this in refreshed visuals, with new textures, sounds, etc. and adjusted to the standards of VR. The benefits of the technology will allow for, among other things, a quick 180-degree turn. The release of Doom 3: VR Edition is planned for March 29.

As for the rest of Sony's announcements, the company presents new titles every half hour. In addition to the new version of the third installment of Doom, the survival game Song in the Smoke developed by 17-Bit was shown so far. Judging by the description, the gameplay in the game does not deviate from the formula, to which we are accustomed to other games in the genre, although the use of VR technology will certainly deepen the gameplay experience.
