While it’s not technically free since you need a copy of Star Wars Battlefront, if you’re a Star Wars fan, chances are you already have it in your library. This isn’t a full game, but it’s definitely worth checking out.
In this mission, you get to take control of a Rebel X-wing during the events of *Rogue One: A Star Wars Story*, diving into intense space combat against Imperial forces.

An unexpectedly emotional indie game that you can pick up for free, You Are Being Followed from Uncommon Chocolate is based on a BAFTA winning concept and it’s a deep gut punch at times.
You follow the perspective of Emma, a blind woman with just her guide-dog to keep her company in the world. Speaking of, it’s represented in abstract images and concepts that try to illustrate how potentially the visually impaired see their lives. Gorgeous from the outset, You Are Being Followed is a sleep hit that’s free and needs more eyes in a VR headset on it.

Hatsune Miku: VR Future Live is not only one of the best free games on the PSVR, it's also one of the most notable anime-themed games on the platform. In each match of this rhythm game you need to perform better to beat the past landmarks you've set for yourself, so it's a lot of fun to watch your progress as you play more and more.
The base game only includes nine songs, so you'll need to purchase one of the other music packs to make full use of this game. However, the free songs will keep you busy for hours, especially since there are multiple difficulty levels.
