Sony took the opportunity of its E3 2016 press conference to whip the cloak off a brand new gun peripheral to use with PS VR.

While the console giant unveiled a new PS VR-exclusive shooter called Farpoint Called the PS VR Aim Controller, it’s an evolution of the old PlayStation Move Sharpshooter.However, whereas the Sharpshooter required players to slot their Move controllers into its frame, the new peripheral is crammed with built in motion and navigation sensors.This makes the PS VR Aim much more precise than its predecessor. Using 1-to-1 tracking, pointing the controller at a particular spot or angle in the real world will point your virtual gun at the same target in the game.The idea is that Farpoint should feel like one of the most natural FPS to-date, and other shooters could make use of the technology in the future.No release date or pricing for the PS VR Aim has been announced. However, during its conference Sony pulled a string of PS VR versions of popular games from its sleeves. These include a VR-compatible version of Resident Evil 7 and Final Fantasy XV, Batman Arkham VR, and a VR expansion to Star Wars Battlefront X-Wing missions.
