Since launch last October, PlayStation VR has opened gamers’ eyes to the possibilities of the virtual world, offering us the opportunity to experience things we would never have imagined.
From shooting giant space spiders in Farpoint, to becoming the Dark Knight himself in Batman: Arkham VR, and coming face to face with your worst fears in Resident Evil 7 – PS VR truly transports you into a new realm.
What’s more, you don’t need to actually open your wallet to enjoy some of these titles – there’s a wealth of free content available right now for you to discover and enjoy – including full games, VR experiences, and demos.
Everything listed below is available to download from PlayStation Store now. Give them a try and let us know what your favourites are.
1. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare Jackal Assault VR Experience

Infinite Warfare players will recognise the interstellar dogfighting and daredevil attacks on hulking command vessels from the Ship Assault segment of the PS4 game’s campaign.
As you arrive in the hangar bay, teeming with activity, you turn your head to clock mechs walking alongside you, attack craft launching and your own fighter being readied. You’ve seen it a hundred times in cut-scenes; now you’ll feel like you’re really part of it.

7. Allumette
Taking cues from the classic Hans Christian Andersen fairytale ‘The Little Match Girl’, Allumette is a heartbreaking tale of a mother, her daughter and the sacrifice one makes for the other.
It’s a poignant demonstration of how PS VR can draw you deep into a story and gives you the chance to lean into the film set and pop your head through walls to catch snippets of conversations, as well as see more of the Venice inspired city.
8. Joshua Bell VR Experience
For a relaxing change of pace why not give classical music a try? Sit back and enjoy Brahms’ Hungarian Dance No. 1, performed by violinist Joshua Bell and pianist Sam Haywood at London’s historic Lyndhurst Hall.
State of the art technology allows the video and audio to adapt to even the most subtle changes in your location (which is fully rendered in 3D) to deliver a truly unforgettable virtual reality experience. This one is not to be missed!

And don’t forget…
Star Wars Battlefront Rogue One: VR Mission
This one’s not free as you need to have a copy of Star Wars Battlefront in order to play it. However, if you have Stars Wars Battlefront and you’re a fan of the franchise, the Rogue One: VR Mission is an absolute must-play and you can download it without charge from PS Store.
As a rookie pilot taking an X-Wing fighter for a spin, this is as close as it gets to a job swap with Luke Skywalker or Poe Dameron.
Not only is the cockpit of the iconic fighter recreated in full (you’re free to look around and press every button and switch), but the PS VR headset even feels like a pilot’s helmet. Just as well: as TIE fighters explode overhead and asteroids hurtle by, you’ll welcome the extra protection.
See if you can find the button that turns on the targeting computer – a nod to Episode IV’s iconic trench run finale.
This is just a taster of some of the free experiences available for PS VR right now.
There’s fresh content landing all the time, we’ll be keeping you posted with what’s new, so stay tuned for more updates!
