The heroes of two of the best PSVR games of the year just collided in this adorable new video for the headset.
Quill, the tiny protagonist from Polyarc’s brilliant VR adventure, Moss, and Astro from this week’s equally-excellent Astro Bot Rescue Mission meet face-to-face in the below video. It’s promoting a new bundle for the headset that includes copies of both games (a physical version of Astro Bot and a digital download for Moss). In a Reddit AMA earlier this week Polyarc revealed that it had practically begged Sony to be included in such a bundle.
You know what they say about good things and small packages.

Rescue Mission and Moss are actually pretty similar games, with both having the player explore diorama-sized worlds and controlling their heroes from the perspective of a larger entity. Moss definitely leans more heavily on the adventure side though, with more puzzles and deeper combat, whilst Astro Bot is more your traditional platformer like a Mario game. Both are definitely worth playing, though.
This begs the question: are Quill and Astro PSVR’s very first mascots? We certainly think they’re worthy of the mantle, even if the former has shown up on other headsets.
