Best VR Games of 2019
Second Runner-Up: Everybody’s Golf VR
The return of Everybody’s Golf (previously known as Hot Shots Golf in other parts of the world) in 2017 was more than welcome. The combination of deep, challenging gameplay with a quirky, casual style makes it perfect for fans of the sport and anyone looking for just a bit of arcade fun.
The PSVR exclusive spin-off doesn’t have the depth of content that the main game does, and the creepy caddy moments may be off-putting for some, but it’s amazing quite how great hitting the fairways feels.
Once you get the hang of judging the wind, swinging straight consistently, and perfecting the spin, you genuinely feel like an accomplished golfer. Just as the base game does though, the balance between gameplay depth and how easy it is to pick up and play is spot-on.
It also helps that the game’s three courses are beautiful and well designed, allowing you to hit 300 yard drives while dinosaurs wander around in the background.
PSVR may be a platform that’s short on sport games, but Everybody’s Golf VR manages to stand out, even among the more unique VR experiences.
