I suppose the easiest way for Vertigo Games to decouple shooter Arizona Sunshine<\/a> from PSVR2<\/a> would have been to just re-release it as a flat-screen FPS. In some ways, it\u2019s gone the extra-mile with this third-person version then.<\/p>\n

Frustratingly for our game database, this new game is called Arizona Sunshine; the old versions have been renamed Arizona Sunshine VR. Erm, I can\u2019t tell you the kind of untold issues this will wreak on our creaky old CMS. Gee, thanks guys.<\/p>\n

\"PSVR2<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyway, this sure looks like Arizona Sunshine from a Resident Evil<\/a>-style perspective. To be honest, without the novelty of virtual reality, it all looks a bit static and naff \u2013 I understand the dev wanting to reach as many players as possible, but I\u2019m not sure the summer setting alone is going to carry this.<\/p>\n

The game will feature split-screen and online co-op, and you can even play as dog Buddy if you want. But the shooting looks beige in this reveal trailer, so I\u2019m not convinced by this.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s due out in 2026 at some point, although no specific release date has been attached.<\/p>\n
