Looks Like Some PlayStation VR Games Will Require PS Move To Be Played After All

15 Things You Need To Know About PlayStation VR

There’s been a lot of confusion, apparently, about whether or not PlayStation VR games will require the PlayStation Move controller, which is not included with the base SKU for the headset, to be played- but earlier this week, Sony tried to put an end to all of it when they stated, in no uncertain terms, that all PSVR games can be played with just the DualShock 4, no PS Move needed.

However, it sounds like they are now going back on that sentiment, and reversing it, implying that at least some PSVR games will require the PS Move to be played after all. In an updated version of the same statement that they released to The Verge, Sony said, “Nearly all (emphasis added) PlayStation VR titles will support DualShock 4 controllers, and several games will deliver an enhanced experience that further immerses gamers with the use of peripherals such as Move or the recently announced Aim controller. There will be a limited number of titles that require Move controllers (emphasis added).”

This is different from the original statement, which said, in no uncertain terms, that all PlayStation VR games will run just fine with DualShock 4. I guess for now, Sony don’t want to necessarily constrain developers who may feel that their VR game would work best with a Move controller.
