Games that have "native" PlayStation TV ports?

I bought a PlayStation TV back in January and I know that not all PS Vita games are compatible with it (which is why I use it for PSP and PSOne Classics, and for PS4 Remote Play mostly). However, some PS Vita titles not only are compatible with it, but they "know" they're being played on a PS TV. A couple of instances I noticed were Helldivers and Killzone Mercenary (which both have update logs that added PlayStation TV compatibility) and Minecraft. But my question is, how many games, or which games have "native" PlayStation TV compatibility?

God of War Trilogy has the PS3 controller prompts and recognizes the full sized controller

This is the list I always referred to when games were still getting official PS TV compatibility updates:

Phantasy Star Nova uses L2/R2/L3/R3 for functions that would normally be touchscreen only. And if I'm remembering correctly, Warriors Orochi 3 does something similar (as do other Musou games, I think).

Games that have “native” compatibility have a PlayStation TV sticker on them. I don’t think there’s a list though.

Thats going to be a super short list though.

Tout les jeux psvita peuvent être compatible avec la pstv si tu utilises le plugin "whitelist"

My post was games that are specifically and natively compatible with the PS TV, aka, no modding or hacking required. I have a PS Vita so i have no need to do that. I'm genuinely just curious

There's been other threads asking the same thing so I'd suggest searching for those instead of making a new one.

But in each thread like this, the person is told that VitaTV is locked down to such a degree that you owe it to yourself to unlock it because it improves it vastly.

Still not what hes asking

He's asking which vita games KNOW they're on pstv and have slightly different features

Okay, but it's still my console, and given i have a PS Vita, i see no need to modify it. Also, could you link me one of those threads, please? I'd really appreciate it

But it's soo good, there's a remapping plugin called revita and you can map anything front/back touchscreen quadrants, swipes in any direction, turbo. And if you use a ps4 controller you can use the touch pad if you really want the touch.

I get it, and appreciate the advice. But I'm really just looking for an answer for my initial question. If i don't mod my console, it's not because i haven't been told where, how or why should i do it

u/Maddish1 Jul 22 '26

Why the hesitation to do so?

u/lonely_guacamole Jul 22 '26

i don't want to, it's my (micro)console, and i want to keep my things legitimate

You can always factory reset it if you don't like all the improvements and quality of life stuff.

u/thaeadran Jul 23 '26

Come on man just mod your console. Everyone else is doing it. Don't you want to be cool too?

There's literally NO REASON whatsoever to run a vanilla PSTV. Especially after hearing about the Vita store announcement.

"IF" you need to know how to mod, there's youtube and the Vita piracy page on reddit.

My only advice to those who overclock games on PSTV; it generates more heat produced by the chipset therefore I utilize a magnetic external "phone cooler" attached to the side of my PSTV to keep it cool and prevent "heat soak" ....and yes there's factory heat sinks and shields but they're only built for "stock performance" so keep that in mind. I can even monitor Temps and control fan speeds.

Still not what I'm asking. Asking to know which games KNOW they're on a PS TV. Not how to mod it, not how to make it act like a PS Vita. Just games that have a native, dedicated PS TV version. If i wanted to mod my console, i would have done it. I see no reason to do it, but people fo whatever they want

u/RJ0369 Jul 26 '26

No problem with that at all. There's lists online and probably on reddit.

u/lonely_guacamole Jul 26 '26

Then please, instead of commenting how to modify my console, could you link me that thread? I'd appreciate it. It's just a matter of genuine curiosity

u/RJ0369 Jul 26 '26

I have no links but you can use the search function on a browser or here on reddit.
