In addition to the evergreen 'Beat Saber' from Beat Games, there was another game this year called 'Superhot VR', which has been available for a while, but always comes into the spotlight.

Superhot VR is currently celebrating the next milestone and has sold 2 million units – a remarkable success for a VR game. All platforms on which Superhot VR is now available were counted.

Superhot VR uses a rather unusual gameplay concept. It blurs the lines between deliberate strategy and irrepressible chaos, because time only runs when you move. No life bars, no tactically placed ammunition – only you against an enemy superior. Take the weapons off your enemies and shoot, stab and maneuver yourself in slow motion through a hail of bullets.

If you want to try Superhot VR, the title is a little cheaper at the current January sale in the PlayStation Store.
