Mar 27, 2023What the Bat? isn’t going to set the VR world on fire with it’s ground-breaking use of VR tech, but it is going to make VR fans looking for a simple, fun game smile and laugh for a few hours. With a barrage of minigames and weirdo mechanics, this game radiates creativity and fun. Just, uh, don’t expect any baseball.

PLAYMar 8, 2023Not as consistently inventive or as funny as we’d like, but still a great physics playground to mess around in and get used to what PSVR2 has to offer. [Issue#25, p.67]

Mar 6, 2023You will need some space to play; the game requires a roomscale environment, owing to all the arm-swinging. You won't need to move from your standing position, so the requirement feels a touch restrictive. Still, if you're able to meet the necessary floorspace, What the Bat is a very silly but entertaining PSVR2 title. While short, the good news is that more content is on the way, so there's even more madness to enjoy beyond launch.

Feb 23, 2023It's basically WarioWare in VR, and it's definitely a lot of fun, especially since you can have a blast goofing around away from the actual games. And an important note: The program will only start if you have set up a playable area of at least two by two meters.

Feb 21, 2023I particularly enjoyed the nods to What the Golf? Within What the Bat? Which genuinely made me laugh. While you’ll need a bit of room to move in order to fully appreciate this one, it’s worth it for the laughs alone.

Feb 16, 2023With a positively batty sense of humour, What The Bat? is a thoroughly daft VR successor to What The Golf? and the best baseball game I've played in years – also the only baseball game I've played.
