As it’s story-driven, it sorely lacks replay value, though. This space-mech shooter is another brief experience, but a solid one. While the experience is brief, it shows how amazing a Time Crisis-style arcade shooter can be in VR. There’s a separate shooting range mode, where you can try to improve your score each time, but it lacks the adrenaline-fuelled action of the campaign’s levels. The whole of London Heist can be finished in around 30 minutes, with only 10 of those spent actually shooting stuff. The real shame is that there are only two dedicated shooting levels, with the rest focused on cutscenes. With two Move Controllers in your hands, these moments are the best of the entire game. It’s exhilarating, a real action-movie highlights package. In a chase scene I’m firing an Uzi out of a van’s window, opening the car door to shoot at gangsters on motorbikes who are tailing us. I’m ducking behind cover, popping out to shoot enemies, closing one eye to improve my (shocking) aim. The shooting here is spot-on, and is a real example of how far virtual reality can take gaming experiences to the next level.

The worst part about it is that the experience is far too short, and in truth I think a dedicated London Heist game would have been preferable to VR Worlds’ mixed bag. If you have two Move Controllers this is by far the shining star of the whole package. Think of Danny Dyer in Time Crisis and you have The London Heist. Let’s take a look at each individually in mini reviews, starting with my personal highlight of the package. VR Worlds includes five games: The London Heist, Danger Ball, VR Luge, Scavengers Odyssey and Ocean Descent.

The trouble is that each mini-game feels all too brief, and as much as you may enjoy them, none reach their full potential, meaning the whole package ends up feeling like a demo box that could’ve been included with the PlayStation VR itself. Each offering feels like a completely different experience, ranging from the entirely passive to an action-packed shooter. PlayStation VR Worlds seems like the perfect first PSVR game – a collection of five games in one cheap package to give you a taste of the potential of the headset.
