Gorn Reviews
Experience battles first hand as a cartoon Gladiator!
GORN is a bloody good time, arriving right at the moment when we need it most. Some strategy is hidden beneath all of the gore and carnage, though you might find yourself just dipping into GORN to bash some heads for a few minutes. While there are some technical limitations brought on by the PlayStation Camera, GORN works pretty well on the PSVR. As both a workout and a psychological enema, GORN succeeds wildly.
GORN makes a gory, bloodfest type of fighting into a fun pastime that can also serve as a fairly good cardio workout. While there are buckets of blood and dismembered body parts flying around, it is designed in a way to make what would normally be prohibitively gross into something so fun that you will find yourself laughing at the incredible mayhem that surrounds you.
You may look at Gorn gameplay footage and think it’s nothing special, but this is one of the most entertaining VR games I’ve played in a long time. Killing these intentionally janky barbarians is not only a cathartic way to have fun in VR, but also a great way to burn some calories without ever thinking that you’re working out.
Gorn is certainly one of the best titles available for PlayStation VR. Despite having a simple premise, it delivers fun gameplay with a good level of depth. At the end of each confrontation against your enemies, it will be impossible not to shout the iconic phrase said by Maximus Decimus Meridius in Gladiator: "are you entertained?".

Gorn is challenging, horrifying, hilarious, and a genuine joy to play. It manages to be brilliant in both short bursts and long sessions, and there are so many little challenges to complete and weapons to master that you'll never really be able to put it down for good.
Gorn is, simply put, one of the best games VR has to offer. The combat is hilariously brutal, and the endless possibilities will keep you coming back for more. I punched my wall and was happy about it. This is a must-have for any VR owner.
Simply put, GORN is among the very best VR games out there.
While Gorn will not be winning any major awards for its story or gameplay, what you get is a fun little title that will both make you laugh and make you feel like Russell Crowe at his peak.
