We are CrossButton VR, a UK-based team of VR enthusiasts that cover everything on PSVR2, and as much as possible on Quest and PCVR too. When it comes to VR, we still have a sense of wide-eyed wonder that we want to share with you! We don't take ourselves too seriously so join us as we build an entertaining and positive community that loves to share the amazing things we've all experienced in the world of VR.
