Reception
The Playroom VR is a good collection of couch co-op mini-games that demonstrate the capabilities of the VR headset superbly. Although a few of the games you'll play once and never touch again, Robots Rescue is a standout experience that you'll wish was a fully-fledged game in itself.
The Playroom VR is a preliminary experience to Virtual Reality, perfect for the families and for younger players, but also fun to try out with a group of friends. Unlike PlayStation VR Worlds this "anthology" can be downloaded for free, and there isn't any reason not to install it.
