If you want to be the Bat on anything besides PlayStation VR (opens in new tab), you’ll need to wait a few months longer. A Facebook advertisement for Batman: Arkham VR (via NeoGAF (opens in new tab)) confirms that the first-person detective experience will be exclusive to Sony’s virtual reality system until March 31, 2017 at least.

After that, it could start rolling out for other VR platforms like Oculus Rift and HTC Vive as early as April 2017. But what are you actually waiting to play? Rocksteady told Press-Start (opens in new tab) it has a roughly hour-long main experience; GR+’s Dave Roberts quite liked the parts of Batman: Arkham VR he got to try (opens in new tab).

“The core narrative is about 60 minutes in duration, however additional content is unlocked that provides about another 90 minutes of gameplay on top of that,” Rocksteady’s Dax Ginn said. “So there are plenty of reasons to play through the game multiple times in order to see everything that we have put into it.”

Sony’s also secured a full year of virtual-reality exclusivity (opens in new tab) for Resident Evil 7 (opens in new tab). The game will still appear on other platforms, but the VR mode will only be available on PlayStation VR for that time.
