Different Viewpoints in Multiplayer
Though it’s currently only a feature utilized in Playroom VR, PSVR opens up a new way to experience multiplayer games thanks to what are essentially different screens. As the player using the VR cannot see what’s shown on the TV screen, Playroom VR makes good use of this. Players looking at the TV will see the image you can see above, whereas the VR player will be looking down from the viewpoint of the scary dragon thing chasing them.
By utilizing this unique element of using a VR headset, Sony has not only proven that VR can be enjoyed as part of a multiplayer experience, but also built a sturdy multiplayer foundation for other developers to build upon for future VR titles. It may only currently be present in Playroom VR, but it’s a neat way to make use of your PSVR with your friends and family.
