Myst and Riven Remakes Hit PS5 With PS VR2 Support on May 19

Native VR support alongside modern performance presets brings the 1990s puzzle classics up to current standards.

Overview

  • Cyan Worlds, which announced the PS5 ports Tuesday, set May 19 and a $34.99 price for each remake, and outlets report Riven also hits Xbox Series X/S that day while Myst is already on Xbox.
  • Both games support two play styles at launch, with full PS VR2 integration or standard TV play.
  • The releases carry PS5 Pro Enhanced status, adding sharper flatscreen graphics and higher base resolution in VR.
  • Ray-traced reflections work only in flatscreen mode and cap the frame rate at 30 FPS, while turning them off switches to screen-space reflections and 60 FPS.
  • Both titles support PS5’s Power Saver feature, which lowers render resolution and locks gameplay to 30 FPS to cut energy use.
