Beat Saber (PS4)
Beat Saber is easily one of the most iconic PlayStation VR games to date, and in addition to being outstanding fun, it can also help boost your daily calorie burn. The title’s fast-paced, rhythm-driven gameplay sees you smashing bricks in time to increasingly hectic techno music – and it’s scoring system is tied to full body movements, so it actively discourages Nintendo Wii-esque cheating with wrist flicks. As it’s not a true fitness game, the title lacks detailed stat tracking on your performance, but it’s good for core and arm exercise, and can be used as a fun cardio booster to incorporate into your home fitness routine.BoxVR (PS4)
Boxercise is big business, and BoxVR is designed to bring the high intensity interval training associated with the popular activity into your home. Specifically designed as an exercise tool, you’ll find detailed stat tracking on your performance here, as well as hundreds of choreographed workouts designed by professionals. The core gameplay is not massively dissimilar to Beat Saber, as you’re tasked with breaking blocks using a series of different jabs and upper-cuts. Crucially, this title is being updated regularly with new content, music, and programmes – and is particularly effective when paired with a good set of wrist weights.CREED: Rise to Glory (PS4)
If you’re the kind of person who doesn’t typically enjoy gym settings, then CREED: Rise to Glory will give you the motivation you need to stay in shape. While titles like BoxVR are no-frills with their presentation, this movie tie-in puts you in the ring with none other than Rocky Balboa. What more could you want? As a fitness tool, this is somewhat less effective than the more tailored experience of BoxVR, but the boxercise principles apply here, and you can burn plenty of calories with a few rounds of this compelling PSVR title.
Just Dance 2020 (PS4)
Dancing is one of the most entertaining ways to exercise, and Ubisoft has tapped into that with its effervescent Just Dance franchise. While very little changes on an annual basis, Just Dance 2020 boasts songs from Ed Sheeran and Ariana Grande, and adds in a custom playlist mode so you can jive to the music you like most. Perhaps the most important feature of this franchise is how universally appealing it is, and a new kid’s mode should help to keep your children active while they’re off school. You can use PlayStation Move controllers or a smartphone to track your motions, so it’s very accessible depending on what hardware you own.Dancing is one of the most entertaining ways to exercise, and Ubisoft has tapped into that with its effervescent Just Dance franchise.

Sprint Vector (PS4)
Sprint Vector is a very interesting experience, as it functions a little like Mario Kart – except the twist is that you must actively pump your arms like you’re running on the spot. While it doesn’t sound like a particularly satisfying racing game on the surface, the mechanic is surprisingly tactile and entertaining – and because of the competitive setting, you’ll always want to exert maximum effort. This makes it a surprisingly effective fat burner.
