A single-player experience with a story campaign, this package is charming and entertaining, making it a must-own for anyone with Sony's virtual reality headset. If it was not obvious by its silly premise, Cactus Cowboy does not take itself too seriously, at least in terms of tone and story however, gameplay-wise, the title is more than good enough to warrant a download. Cactus Cowboy - Plants At War is the exception, and it offers a respectable way to spend a couple of hours.īetrayed by the bugs, the Cacti army is sent out to defend their home, an ambition that requires shooting a lot of enemies in the face. Anyone who picks up a PS VR2 will need to almost immediately invest further cash as the system does not have a robust selection of freebies. At the moment, that does not appear to be happening. Sony will likely continue to push the hardware in the future, but the console needs to receive a significant boost in order to turn things around. The PS VR2 had a less-than-stellar launch in February 2023, a potential side effect of the PS5 companion piece launching at a high price. None of them are open-worlds or particularly expansive, but they provide some room for exploration. At the moment, the campaign has three main zones/areas, all of which serve up mini-adventures. HoYoVerse is also consistent with updates, so there is usually always something on the horizon to look forward to. While this can be a time and money sink, the game dishes out rewards at a decent rate, and it is usually possible to play through the core content without having to invest any hard cash.

Similar to Genshin Impact, Honkai is a gacha game, so players will need to spin the wheel to acquire most of the characters (along with equipment). Naturally, the protagonists won't be flying solo during these missions, and they will be accompanied by a couple of free characters along with a fairly robust selection of unlockables. Dipping into sci-fi territory, Honkai casts players as the Trailblazer, an agent who will find himself visiting a range of planets that each come with their own ecosystems, politics, and storylines. Sticking with HoYoverse, Honkai: Star Rail will likely appeal to most fans of Genshin Impact, although the free-to-play PS5 game is hardly a retread of the developer's smash hit.
