Did you know Sony has its very own PlayStation Awards? We didn’t, but they apparently took place today in Japan, and some of PlayStation VR’s (PSVR’s) best games picked up awards.
This year’s show featured a PlayStation VR Special Award category, which recognized games that have made a special contribution towards the headset over the past 12 months. The winners aren’t super surprising for the most part.
First up is Farpoint, the PlayStation Aim-enabled shooter set on an alien planet. It’s one of the first stabs at bringing a full first-person shooter (FPS) to PSVR, and the Aim controller makes it more immersive than ever, so we’re not surprised to see it pick up an award. The same goes for Resident Evil 7: Biohazard, which remains one of the best — and easily the most terrifying — games on the platform today despite only have optional PSVR support.
Finally, we have a quirky one: Summer Lesson: Allison Snow. Only released in Japan and China, this bizarre little game has you mentoring school girls and taking them out on trips. Still no word on if this one will ever make its way west, sadly.
Elsewhere, Resident Evil 7 picked up a Gold Prize for selling over 500,000 copies in Japan (both at retail and digitally) as well as a Users Choice award.
You can watch the awards for yourself in English below.
