Brilliantly cinematic supernatural thrill ride Ghost Town is finally on PSVR 2 and it's easily one of my favourite games this year

It took about five seconds to figure out Ghost Town might be something a bit special when I first played it earlier this year. Before you even hit the 'start' option, you're transported to a dingy, moonlit South London car park in the driving rain.
