Dreams of Another ‘PlayStation VR2 Gameplay’ trailer

A look at the virtual reality-only first-person mode.

Q-Games has released a new trailer for third-person exploration action game Dreams of Another, introducing its PlayStation VR2 gameplay.

Here are the latest details, via PlayStation Blog:

Journey Into Dreams Shaped by Point Cloud Technology
Dreams of Another is a third-person exploration action game built around the philosophical theme: No Creation Without Destruction. Unlike traditional third-person shooter games where shooting destroys objects, here, shooting materializes and creates from an otherwise abstract, fragmented world.
The game’s standout feature is its use of point cloud rendering, where space is visualized as a collection of floating particles. On PlayStation VR2, this technique truly shines, enveloping the player in a dreamlike world where your body feels as though it’s dissolving into the environment. The result is a mysterious and deeply immersive sensation, like traveling within a dream itself. Thanks to VR, players can feel that they physically exist within these worlds made up of nothing but particles.
A Mysterious Story of the Man in Pajamas and The Wandering Soldier

At the heart of Dreams of Another is a surreal journey through a dream world, led by two characters, The Man in Pajamas and The Wandering Soldier. But this world isn’t just inhabited by people: trees swaying in the wind, lonely doors, softly glowing streetlights, and all sorts of objects come alive with humorous dialogue that casts a quirky light on the questions of human society. Through virtual reality, they feel as though they’re right there in front of you, drawing you even more deeply in.
Seamlessly Switch Between First and Third-Person Perspectives
In the PlayStation VR2 version, players can switch between the third-person perspective used in the PlayStation 5 version and a special virtual reality-only first-person mode. The third-person view emphasizes the game’s concept and storytelling, allowing players to watch the narrative unfold while seeing their character. In contrast, the first-person mode offers heightened immersion, placing the world of point clouds directly in front of your eyes and allowing for close-up inspection of every detail.
We recommend using the DualSense controller for third-person mode and the PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers for first-person mode. Either way, you’ll experience the shimmering, particle-built dream as if you were truly inside it.
Eye-Tracking Camera Control in Third-Person View
Third-person mode takes advantage of eye-tracking, allowing players to shoot simply by looking in a direction. This keeps the intuitive feel of the standard PlayStation 5 version while making gameplay even faster and more fluid. Both the regular and VR versions use haptic feedback and adaptive triggers for a uniquely Dreams of Another experience to further deepen the immersion.
A Variety of Weapons and Quirky Items
As players traverse the dreamlike landscape built of point clouds, they’ll encounter entities called Auras. These require a variety of weapons such as submachine guns , grenades and rocket launchers to overcome and these are unlocked as you play through. The rocket launcher, in particular, offers a thrilling experience as its immense power scatters wide areas of point clouds, instantly materializing the impact zone.
Grenades, on the other hand, offer a tense and strategic gameplay experience as players must carefully time their explosions to hit the Auras. VR amplifies the tension and impact of Aura encounters in a different way again, making them feel even more direct and thrilling. You’ll also discover curious items likeSomeone’s wedding ring or A blown fuse that has served its purpose, adding another layer of exploration and wonder to the game.
