Resident Evil 7 was also a VR game and showed how successful VR horror games could be. Resident Evil 4 and Village will likely follow in this path and make use of the more powerful hardware. These games don't yet have a release date for their VR content as it's still in development.

Horizon: Call Of The Mountain and The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners: Retribution are all new games.

What was the biggest surprise?

The biggest surprise was the amount of Final Fantasy XVI details we received, along with the game finally getting a release timeframe. The release of a free update for Horizon Forbidden West was a bit surprising, but it promises to add more playtime for players who enjoyed their first run-through of the game.

Along with the games above, Sony announced that Stray will be a day one addition to their new PlayStation Plus platform. This marks the first of many announcements that will occur for the platform and is keeping good on Sony's promise to provide a robust service.
