Henry Stockdale
These days, I'm the Senior Editor for UploadVR, but I started covering video games in 2010 with Nintendo Life before returning to media in 2019. While virtual reality has become my specialist field, my role also allows me to freelance for other outlets, so you'll also find me published at Eurogamer, IGN, Push Square, startmenu and more. I'm also open to working on mock reviews.

Rebellion’s no stranger to virtual reality. Having remade Atari's classic Battlezone as a PSVR launch title and publishing Arca's Path two years later, it’s teamed up with Just Add Water for Sniper Elite VR. While PlayStation owners haven’t lacked for Sniper Elite entries — we’ve previously seen III, 4, V2...
For a horror series based around tabletop RPGs, World of Darkness’ shared supernatural universe is making serious inroads on PlayStation this year. Between Wraith: The Oblivion - Afterlife on PSVR and Vampire: The Masquerade’s two new entries – Swansong and Bloodlines 2 – Werewolf: The Apocalypse comes first via Earthblood....
There’s a refreshing freedom to Paradise Killer we’ve not previously seen. You can start the trial almost immediately if you desired, which is far from sensible, but without a narrative constraining you, Lady Love Dies’ investigation is what you make it. Coming to your own conclusions can be a little...
Disintegration
A hybrid of first-person shooting and light strategy in which you play a gravcycle pilot across somewhat bland singleplayer and multiplayer modes.
