Final Sale for PlayStation Console Exclusive Before Permanent Delisting

Final Sale for PlayStation Console Exclusive Before Permanent Delisting

PlayStation users have until February 1 to buy a console exclusive before it is permanently delisted. The game, titled Tarzan VR, is currently available at a discount on the PlayStation Store. This game represents a collaboration between Stonepunk Studios, VRMonkey, and Fun Train.

Final Sale Details for Tarzan VR

The PS5 version of Tarzan VR is discounted to $7.49 for all users. For PlayStation Plus subscribers, the price drops further to $6.74. In contrast, the PS4 version remains at its standard price of $24.99. Players have one week to make their purchases before the game disappears from the store.

Game Background

  • Initial Release: Tarzan VR debuted in 2020 on Steam VR.
  • PlayStation VR Launch: The game became available on the PS4 in 2021 and expanded to PS5 via PlayStation VR2 in 2024.
  • Platforms: Aside from PlayStation, it is also available on the Meta Quest.

Reasons for Delisting

According to Douglas Nabors, CEO of Fun Train, the delisting is due to expiring licenses. Renewing these licenses would require significant investment, which is not currently viable. Nabors highlighted two main reasons for this decision:

  • Market Challenges: The VR market faces difficulties, making it hard to sustain legacy titles.
  • Industry Pressure: Recent studio closures and layoffs, particularly at Meta, indicate a struggling market for VR titles.

Impact and Reception

Despite its unique premise, Tarzan VR did not gain widespread popularity on PlayStation platforms. Its rating stands at 2.97 out of 5, indicating mixed reviews without any notable presence on Metacritic. Importantly, this delisting affects all platforms, not just PlayStation.

As the deadline approaches, PlayStation users interested in Tarzan VR should act swiftly. Once February 1 arrives, the title will no longer be available for purchase from any store. For the latest updates in gaming and more, visit Filmogaz.com.
