Review: Far too many first-person shooters in VR are too easy to play and thus rather boring. The Persistence is definitely not one of those shooters, but instead, it could be said it is a little too hard at times making it an often demanding game that requires us players to have a lot of…well…persistence! While the scenery doesn’t have a lot of variety you will still find yourself immersed in the spacecraft style halls and often jumping out of your skin at most turns and door unlocks. OK, so The Persistence isn’t perfect, but it is still well worth its asking price and if you like your first-person shooters, you will love this for sure.
