Blood and Truth PSVR launching May 28th (London Heist developers, long time coming)

Wollan · Mar 25, 2019

New trailer was shown at today's State of Play:

Launching May 28th. Developed by Sony London Studio.

Likely featuring the highest production values of any PSVR exclusive we'll see this year, been cooking for a good long time.
Astro Bot had a really promising demo back in 2016 that turned into gold with the full game. Could we see a repeat story here with the standout London Heist demo being the basis? Seems like a mix of Goldeneye and The Getaway.

Costly how?

Is this confirmed to be $60? Looks really cool imo

Betelgeuse · Mar 25, 2019

Impressive facial animation and overall production value. This definitely has the look of a higher budget VR game.

looks really well polished, and a nice budget. Hopefully the game is great.

Thanks. Updated OP.

Great trailer. May is also a good month to release the game.

Memento · Mar 25, 2019

Looks like an actual AAA VR only game

Alienous · Mar 25, 2019

This looks awesome. I've really been wanting a PSVR game with similar object interaction to Arkham VR- reaching into 3D space, picking things up, turning keys - and this looks like it will be a solid experience based around that core VR functionality.

Precious Tritium · Mar 25, 2019

Looks cool, it doesn't seem to require move controllers wonder how the shooting will work without them.

My bad? Thanks!

mxbison · Mar 25, 2019

Looks really good, guess it's time to get move controllers after all

LonestarZues · Mar 25, 2019

Great trailer. Day 1.

shaneo632 · Mar 25, 2019

Nice to see my boy Colin Salmon getting that VR money.

Clive · Mar 25, 2019

I don't think the game looks impressive but VR adds a crazy amount of awesomeness to anything and London Heist was really cool. Can't wait to play this.

I think the idea was that you could use a Dualshock and the various game types would adapt to having one motion controller, but the ideal is definitely two Moves.

Meg Cherry · Mar 25, 2019

It looks excellently polished, but honestly the London Heist did absolutely nothing for me in terms of gameplay. Shooting felt awkward, and the dialogue scenes really dragged. I think there's potential in expanding it out - but I really need to see how they've improved the actual gameplay.

Could be like RE7 in that that you simply aim with your view. Worked well.

Cactuar · Mar 25, 2019

The highlight of PSVR Worlds. Rember Astro Bot started out as part of Robots Rescue, and look what happened to that. I see the same thing here, the team got the exposure they needed with PSVR Worlds, now they are taking the ball and running with it. I have a lot of confidence in this one, make sure you deliver guys.

Ogni-XR21 · Mar 25, 2019

When I got my PSVR I was hoping for 2 games to come to be, AstoBot and this one.

A while back some hands on impressions were not so kind so I'm a bit sceptical, but I will probably end up getting this day 1.

Electro · Mar 25, 2019

I don't expect Astro Bot scores but please be very good.

RivalGT · Mar 25, 2019

London Heist was a great little demo, this looks so much better, will be checking this one out.

Kaako · Mar 25, 2019

This one is going to be incredible in VR. I just knows it.

Equanimity · Mar 25, 2019

My most anticipated VR game this year. I can't wait.

BAD · Mar 25, 2019

Really excited for it and glad its coming so soon

This is looking like a masterclass of set-pieces in VR. Really incredible looking stuff.

R dott B · Mar 25, 2019

I'm in

Like OP said, it looks like GoldenEye mixed with The Getaway mixed with... Uncharted.

Fantastic production values here. Maybe a teaser as to what to expect from Sony's support for next-gen VR?

You betcha.

TeaberryShark · Mar 25, 2019

omg yes! One thing that can't be overstated is how cool set pieces can be in vr and this looks like it'll do the trick!

Lokoline · Mar 25, 2019

This looks like Uncharted VR, pretty amazing.

wapplew · Mar 25, 2019

I like the tone, a little over the top and fun.

get2sammyb · Mar 25, 2019

The production values are bonkers for PSVR, I'm really excited to play this.

Overflow · Mar 25, 2019

Really impressive, especially that U3 plane moment haha

MattAces · Mar 25, 2019

Persagen · Mar 25, 2019

This was supposed to be a late 2018 title. The last round of previews complained about the lack of free movement; I was wondering if it got delayed to add it. This latest trailer doesn't answer that question - I actually doubt they could implement something so major in just a few months - but it sure looks visually impressive.

afrodubs · Mar 26, 2019

Loved getaway. Love the look and feel of this!

Modest_Modsoul · Mar 26, 2019

Well, looks like I'm not the only one with that 'Uncharted 3 plane moment' in this game.

Pankratous · Mar 26, 2019

I still don't really get why I don't have arms in VR.

It's something you cease to notice after a short while...

same as how it works in London Heist.....................which is from the same dev.

because the way you 'flex' your arms will be different from what is presented in-game....creating weird 'disconnection' and also some weird bugs and animation.

Just look at Rush of Blood. Sometimes the arms can go 'places' that's different from where your actual arms' 'flex' were.

PS Move controllers are never in stock at the big retailers in Germany, they are being sold for 160€ from third party sellers on Amazon. They are rarely ever bundled with PSVR.

I guess Sony doesn't want anyone to buy Beat Saber and Blood & Truth. It sucks. I played B&T at an event and really liked it. I'm not going to pay for the overpriced move controllers though. Sony needs to do something about this.

Acquiescence · Mar 26, 2019

Wait... that was Colin Salmon in the trailer? Wow, had no idea. He's a cool dude, it's good to see him in, well, anything really.
