The Robinson The Journey PS VR PS4 disc is a first-person science-fiction adventure built for PlayStation VR by Crytek, the studio known for its CryEngine technology. It launched on PS VR on 8 November 2016, according to the PlayStation Blog and Crytek. The genre is exploration adventure: you play Robin, a boy stranded on the alien planet Tyson III after his ship crash-lands, and you explore a prehistoric world full of dinosaur-like creatures. The game requires a PlayStation VR headset. Crytek lists it as winner of Best Presentation at the German Computer Game Awards 2017.

Stranded on Tyson III
According to Crytek, the ship Esmeralda crash-lands on Tyson III, a mysterious planet far from Earth, and leaves a young boy named Robin stranded. Robin must rely on his wits and on HIGS, one of the ship’s AI units, to survive. Together they search for the lost crew and try to understand what happened, while discovering that Tyson III is not the paradise it was once promised to be. The PlayStation Blog describes the planet as a prehistoric alien world populated by dinosaur-like creatures, from huge long-necked giants to fast raptors. Crytek calls the story emotional and presents it as a fantastical journey, with a detailed world and its own lore to uncover. Robin travels with two contrasting allies, and much of the drama comes from the sense of being small and alone in a vast, beautiful, dangerous place.
Exploration, Climbing and Dinosaurs
Robinson: The Journey is about exploration rather than combat. In virtual reality you look around the jungle, climb soaring treetops with a hand-over-hand mechanic, and solve environmental puzzles, such as luring a hungry dinosaur away with a giant fruit, as described by the PlayStation Blog in its hands-on report. Raptors can chase you up the trees, while calmer moments let you stand on a cliff and watch creatures move across the land below. Crytek says it aimed for an unparalleled sense of presence in VR, and the game’s visual quality earned the Best Presentation award at the Deutscher Computerspielpreis 2017. The PlayStation Blog writer played it with a DUALSHOCK 4 controller. Comfort can vary: as with many first-person VR games, players sensitive to motion in VR should take regular breaks.
Single-Player VR Adventure
Robinson: The Journey is a single-player story adventure with no multiplayer or online modes. It is a PlayStation VR title, so a PS VR headset and a PlayStation Camera are needed to play on PS4; it cannot be played on a TV without the headset. Crytek lists the age ratings as PEGI 7, ESRB E and USK 12. The game was also released on Oculus Rift for PC, but this disc is the PS4 PlayStation VR version. Expect a focused, story-led experience. Take your time in each area.

Who This Is Not For
This disc is only for owners of the original PlayStation VR headset and PlayStation Camera; it does not work with PS VR2 and cannot be played on a normal screen. There is no combat to speak of and no multiplayer. The graphics date from 2016, and players prone to VR motion sickness may find first-person movement and climbing uncomfortable.
