Psychonauts VR Pre-Order Bonus Includes Original Game
We are just a couple of weeks away from the launch of Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin, a brand-new title from Tim Schafer and his Double Fine studio, developers of the original 2005 classic. The new game is exclusive to Playstation VR and is intended to bridge the gap between the first game and the long-awaited sequel, Psychonauts 2, which is scheduled to release in 2018.
Double Fine has just opened up digital pre-orders for Rhombus of Ruin, and revealed the bonuses which will be given to early purchasers. First, Playstation Plus members will get 10 percent off the VR experience's $19.99 price tag. Moreover, all pre-orders will come with a digital copy of the original Psychonauts, currently available as a PS2-on-PS4 title.

Our Take
Psychonauts is a cult classic, and it's always great to see such beloved and underappreciated properties getting a second chance and stardom. Between the PS4 re-release of the original title and this new VR experience (and the pragmatic bundling together of the two games), next year's sequel is well-positioned to be the breakout hit of 2018.
