Sony PS VR Aim gun controller to debut in May alongside VR shooting game ‘Farpoint’

A new accessory for the Sony PlayStation VR will be making its debut in May to coincide with the launch of a new virtual reality shooting game called Farpoint. Sony developed the Aim gun controller with Farpoint’s indie developer Impulse Gear. The controller has a cable-free design and tracking sphere to make it easier for you to move around while you have the PS VR on. It also has a thumbstick and trigger so you can control the entire game there. But it isn’t essential if you want to play the game. A regular controller will still work with Farpoint. The Aim itself is expected to work with future PS VR titles.

The game is described as a free movement game, which is supposedly unusual for VR games. It takes place in a “hostile alien world” and it being an “unnerving space adventure.” When the game comes out on May 16th, the Aim controller will be bundled with it.
