During the conversation between the player’s cohort, users will be able to explore their environment, as well as take a drink, turn on the radio and listen to some music, and have a real conversation before your car is quickly and rather brutally attacked by a private army of well-armed Russian mobsters who appear to want to exact revenge on your and your crew for a so far, unknown wrong committed. The player will need to both check out and interact with their environment in order to get a feel for the crew they are working with and foe, all the while the player is being talked to by a revved up partner. The third scene we have managed to get a good look at is called the getaway and players find themselves waking up in a van driving through the outskirts of London just as the light of dawn begins to sweep across the city. The goal of this scene is to have the player search the desk in front of them to find a rather large and obviously expensive diamond. Eventually the player does find the diamond and that is when the real action begins as several goons descend upon you all trying to stop you from getting out of the den alive. In The Heist, the player finds themselves in a rather ornate study, and you soon discover that you are behind the scenes at a very lavish party. The player must find a way to get out of this situation safe and sound, going through a number of motions and interactions.

You’re not alone in this garage as you are sitting and facing a mysterious character who is reaching for a blow torch as he is asking you questions. We know there are a couple of scenes that take part in the game, including one where the user is inside an abandoned back street garage. The player takes the role of one of a number members of a robbery crew. The specifics of the story behind The London Heist aren’t known, though there are some details that can be taken from the various demos and videos that have been making the rounds. Industry analysts estimate The London Heist will be a launch title alongside the PlayStation VR. The company has announced the game will be released at some point in 2016, though it hasn’t set an official release date. The game brought more videos and screenshots alongside an appearance at Paris Games Week in October of 2015.


The Heist, The Getaway and The Interrogation were unveiled as a way to show users three very distinct aspects of the VR experience in the game.
