I recently got a chance to play around an hour of Videoverse on the PlayStation 5 Pro, thanks to a review copy provided by Ratalaika Games.

You can also find my first impressions of Videoverse below:
Pros:
- Fun nostalgic callback to early online communities.
- Unique social gameplay mechanics.
Cons:
- None.
Overall:
Videoverse is an adventure game where you mainly use your Shark console, which also acts as a social media hub.
As a member of multiple communities, your job is to keep Videoverse positive by upvoting posts as well as reporting any bad behavior. You can also chat with your friends and share your drawings.
Aside from the main goal of creating a positive community, there are also several side quests to take on. Not to mention that you can also build your relationships with others as well, which leads to multiple branching paths.
Overall, Videoverse is a very unique adventure game that provides a great nostalgic callback to the early days of social media and online communities. If you are into unique narrative driven games, then don’t miss out on this one.
