Creed: Rise to Glory – Championship Edition enters the PS VR2 ring on April 4th

Creed: Rise to Glory was an incredibly solid virtual reality boxing experience so we’re more than excited to get into the ring with the remastered version due to be made available on April 4th, 2023 for the PlayStation VR2 (see the original announcement here).

Creed: Rise to Glory – Championship Edition for the PS VR2 will just miss the debut of theatrical release of Creed III by a few weeks, but the timing still seems ripe for the crossover content they have prepared for Championship Edition which will include new characters, costumes and locations inspired by the movie.

Those who already own the original game for the PlayStation VR can get the enhanced VR2 upgrade for $19.99/$29.99 depending on the version. Meta Quest 2 gamers will also receive the new content at the same time.

Check out the official PS VR2 teaser trailer and new details below.
