Hidden gem
I ordered this game about 5 months ago and didn't play it until recently. I didn't realize how good it was! This hidden gem's been sitting on my shelf for months.It's like the old school arcade game where you would actually sit in a sort of simulator. If I recall it's one of those games that was like 50 cents when most video games in the arcade cost a quarter. You actually have the option of playing the arcade version with the 80's era all green graphics. VR takes it to another level.The campaign mode is pretty difficult, even on easier settings. You get a randomly created map where you get to choose from a number of tanks to play with and you choose your path to the final level. You can take the roundabout way and play a bunch of levels but enemies get more powerful the more levels you play. There are special hexes that you can go to and purchase new weapons for your tank. Even if you take the most direct route the final levels can be extremely difficult.The graphics are really good but it's not meant to look realistic. For those of my generation think Tron with less of a glow. This game should be pretty mellow for those who get queasy from VR games, but there is a lot of motion. At least you're not turning upside-down or anything.The controls are pretty easy to use. You actually have to use the right thumb pad to aim...your aiming reticule is not controlled by where you're looking. Your aim can be inverted if you wish. I always play games like this with the aim or up-down controls inverted since I grew up playing games that way when changing it wasn't an option. In this day and age it makes me the weirdo, though.WARNING! There is no option to switch between VR and non-VR mode. I found this out the first time I fired up the game. They came out with the Gold Edition update a while back, so the game can be played without the headset. YOU NEED TO HAVE YOUR HEADSET TURNED ON WHEN YOU START THE GAME OR IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY PUT YOU IN 2D MODE AND THERE'S NO WAY TO CHANGE IT IN-GAME. Oftentimes I'll start a game and then turn on my headset and put it on while the game is loading. That doesn't work with this game so turn on your headset early.Like most PSVR games you don't find a lot of people playing online. Either that or I'm just unlucky every time I try. Still, the game has a solid campaign mode and a very high replay value. I have a lot of VR games and this might just end up being one of my top 10. I'll have to see how quickly I get bored from it.

Get it. Get it now! The AAA game you need for PSVR.
This is the first game I demoed for PSVR and also the first one I purchased. Totally worth the price, and the co-op mode is an awesome added bonus to its already obtained level of perfection. This game is fun, challenging and immersive. Graphics are great. No problems with tracking or motion sickness. The randomly generated campaign gives it endless re-playability. I've been playing all day and am now laying here in bed typing this review before I go to sleep and I'm wanting to go back to finish the next level of the campaign. Definitely the AAA game that PSVR needs. I'm not a huge gamer, maybe two hours a week if I'm lucky, but this game, and PSVR, are so awesome that my gaming habits will be changing! Haha.

Punishingly hard- But Fun!
Battlezone is very true to its early 80s arcade roots which is a great thing but it comes with one huge drawback in comparison to most modern games on the market today. The difficulty on the easiest setting is insurmountable without the support of skilled online players. Playing solo or with inexperienced people online is futile. I enjoy hard games, love grueling titles like Dark Souls, but this game is both punishing and lacks progression. Every time you lose you start from 0. There is no building of resources or leveling up your tank. No working on the game until you are strong enough to take on the challenge. No saving enough in game currency to buy a weapon to help make it further after death. You run out of lives, its game over. Back to square one. As others have stated the game is very immersive. If you ever wanted to enter the movie Tron then this game might be for you. Just be aware that the title is extremely hard even on the lowest difficulty setting. You will die many times and have nothing but experience to show for it.Correction: You do unlock hundreds of weapons which will allow you to purchase them in subsequent campaigns. You can also unlock more powerful tanks by beating the game so there is some progression to be found, you do not really start from zero every time.

My favorite PSVR game by far.
Been playing games since .. well, let's just say I enjoyed this game in the Arcade. This is my #1 go-to "I feel like VR" game. I would say I play this 90% of the time, even though I own over 20 PSVR games. This game does EVERYTHING right. I just played .. and the final battle was AMAZING. I've won 5 or 6 times but this time I was down to my last shred of health on my last life, but I'd made good choices regarding purchasing weapons and I JUST scraped by for the win. SO immersive.. SO perfect. It just doesn't get any better than this.

It's not great really at all...
The previews looked cool and the demo I tried was fun. But the game itself isn't what I thought it would be. It's hard and not much fun. Your tank can get taken out fast and as far as I can tell you cannot get health/repairs. If you boost to move faster, it depletes your shield which can result in a fast death. The cockpit is awesome. The visual style is nice looking. It just left me wanting more. Seems like a game that could have been made better.

Great VR Action Game Without the Gore!
I have all of the PS4 VR games released so far, and this is in my top 3. It is easy to learn, but challenging to play. It is a great game of skill, exciting, fun, and though it is packed with action, it is not gory, gratuitously graphic, or mean spirited. It reminds me more of the arcade games of the 1980s if they had technology from our future. I enjoy playing this game every day, and I like that my son and nephews and nieces enjoy the intense action without the bloody overkill of so many other games these days. And the VR is out of this world!

Great Game
Love the tank battle scenario. Controls are intuitive and easy to pick up for the novice player. I did get a bit of motion sickness in VR mode, but not too bad.

My favorite psvr game right now
Solid, Tron like graphics, killer soundtrack that enhances the feel of the easily controlled tank destruction. Just a joy to play and a great vr experience, a must have if you own a vr headset.

The best VR experience. Fact. (PS4 pro), normal controller.
I wondered initially just how good this would be. Turns out this title, in VR, is incredible. VR games do not give me motion sickness (I also play star wars squadrons without issue) but this is sooooo good, I can play a straight hour and then need a break. It is NOT possible to adequately post in 2d, just how good this is.Sound: the AI voice, the explosions, the weapons firing, through the headphones are all really true to life.Colours: so true to life, vibrant and not cartoon like.Gameplay: addictive, fun and I feel like I've just visited somewhere else, got in a tank and blew up some baddies!Conclusion: get this game. I particularly enjoy the drones that make you change your aspect to aim high!Yeah, just amazing. 12 out of 5 stars for me.
