Space Pirate Trainer
PSVR users have been waiting for this console release for a hot minute. Step onto the Space Pirate Trainer platform and get your guns, lasso, and shield ready for droid attack. They’ll swoop in and blast you with lasers so pay attention to how you use your shield or dodge out of the way.
Fitness Potential
PC space pirates have felt the rush of dodging lasers and a surge of pride when they fire lasers at droids flying through space. Now, its PSVR’s turn! Virtual Athletics League recently held a global esports tournament with SPT for an FPS arcade shoot off. This is a great upper body game and leg day game when you dodge instead of shield.

In Death
Enter into a medieval afterlife where souls, knights, monks, cherubs, and demons are there to devour your soul or to send you back to respawn. This is a procedurally generated dungeon crawler that hands you a crystal teleportation shard, a long bow, crossbow, shield, and specialty arrows to poison, multishot, and more.
Fitness Potential
In Death is a light to mid range upper body game with its use of archery as the main method of attack. It isn’t hard to pretend that these soul hungry foes are real and can see you. This is because they respond so quickly to your presence no matter how stealthy you think you are. Duck to hide and look around corners to give your legs something to do instead of standing there like a baby cherub statue.

Their site says you can block with your arms and even your head. Soccer fans will clock in a lot of field time with 12 unique game modes and won’t have to wear gloves, shin guards and cleats to do it.
Fitness Potential
If you like to play as goalkeeper or pretend to be one this is your type of VR game. Get your goalie gloves up and get to blocking and striking balls with your head.
