Monster of the Deep: Final Fantasy XV is a nice fishing simulator with popular characters that lacks a variety of modes and a competitive multiplayer. Still, this is one of the most attractive games for VR in recent times, which should be played by all fans of the genre and Hajime Tabata fans.

Monster of the Deep definitely succeeds in immersing players, though fans of Final Fantasy may be left sorely wanting. It comes with a hefty price tag and, gameplay-wise, there's so very little tying Monster of the Deep to Final Fantasy XV even if it does feel like part of the universe.

Diving headfirst into the pool of experiences available on PSVR has had me trying out titles from genres I wouldn't have looked twice at under normal circumstances and, almost without fail, finding that the simple virtue of playing in VR has made these games far more engaging.

A disturbing making-friends symulator with Noctis and the gang. You can notice (from behind Cindy's cleavage- some fishing and shooting to sea monsters, too.

Monster of the Deep: Final Fantasy XV has a few technical flaws, but at its core it is a very fun and lengthy fishing RPG. This VR game comes highly recommended to even those who did not like the original Final Fantasy XV thanks to its ease of play and in-depth character customization. Fans of the original titles will find much to appreciate here, like the frequent cameos of the cast and the ridiculous unlockable outfits. This is one for the few PSVR games that feels like a full game and not a tech demo with dumbed down gameplay. Even if this was not a VR game, on its own merits there is nothing like Monster of the Deep thanks to its delightfully weird hodgepodge of game ideas. This was a game nobody expected to be good, yet in spite of the odds, Square Enix really did deliver one of the more enjoyable VR games on the market.
