While the second version of VR headset exclusive to the PS5 arrives on February 22, Sony presses the production level mushroom.
After more than two years of scarcity, the manufacturer finally feels confident that those interested in its new generation console (and the PS VR2 that goes with it eventually) will get their money’s worth.
A two-shot VR headset
The new console generation is slowly but surely starting to take hold, after an unprecedented launch two years ago due to component shortages amid health and economic crises. As the console inventory situation finally stabilizes, Sony intends to spend the second.
In just over three weeks, the PS5 will indeed exclusively host the second iteration of its famous PS VR. Expected for February 22 precisely and exchanged for the rather tidy sum of 599.99 euros, this new model should represent a clear evolution compared to its elder.
On the program: OLED screen, 110° field of vision, support for 4K HDR and 120 Hz. It will be accompanied by a few promising titles from its launch, such as Horizon: Call of the Mountain.
Sony relaunches in the game
In anticipation of this major arrival, Sony therefore intends to ensure that PS5 stocks are also present. ” If you want to buy a PS5, it should now be easier to find one at retailers around the world says Isabelle Tomatis, VP of Brand, Hardware and Peripherals at Sony Interactive Entertainment.
To put the odds on its side and order the console, Sony recommends, at least in Europe, to go directly to its site, cited in source below. In addition to the VR headset and a productivity boost around the PS5, the brand has also launched a new initiative called Live From PS5, which aims to be the official news channel for all things PS5. PlayStation universe.
Note however that, according to rumors, the manufacturer is working on a new model (but neither Pro nor Slim) of its favorite console. According to rumors, the production of the current model could therefore stop in April to make way for its successor in September. In such a case, it would be prudent for Sony not to be overzealous, at the risk that few people are interested in this future iteration.
