More photos, details on integrated ventilation, and other new design features: https://blog.playstation.com/ ... https://twitter.com/... Meta Quest / @metaquestvr : Welcome 2 the party 🤜🤛 https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/... @cheeztag : @PlayStation Is it gonna beat the oculus rift? That is the question. Taylor Lyles / @taynixster : The design looks really good! Even if it gives me Meta Quest 2 vibes on the HMD and the controllers remind me of the Oculus Touch controllers. https://www.ign.com/... Vincent Adultman / @tatatatoddc : @CheezTag @PlayStation Rift? Yes. Quest? No. But it will have games that the Quest won't be able to compete with. Brad Lynch / @sadlyitsbradley : Sony hasn't shown off like any games for PS VR 2 and the fanbase is already fine with defending the cable The VR gaming market is never as cut and dry as people put it up to be. Those fans know they will get the gaming content they desire John Legere / @johnlegere : I might have to get this... https://www.theverge.com/... Jeff Delgado / @jeff_delgado : Fingers crossed it'll work on PC as well! https://www.theverge.com/... Kevin Kenson / @kevinkenson : I dig the look. Always found the original PSVR to be pretty comfy, especially compared to its contemporaries at the time. VR still isn't a huge priority for me but I'm interested to see what games PlayStation brings to the table to convince more people to try it out https://twitter.com/... @sony : Your first look at the next generation of virtual reality gaming. Check out Playstation's VR2 headset along with details on integrated ventilation, and other new design features: https://blog.playstation.com/ ... https://twitter.com/... Greg Rice / @gregricey : Can't wait to see what developers will do with this beauty! https://twitter.com/... Ross Miller / @ohnorosco : PSVR launched at $400 (rounding up) alongside new PS4 Slim ($300) and Pro ($400) revisions, at a time where Oculus Rift CV1 (wow) was $600 and required $1k+ PCs Now Meta Quest 2 is $300 new, PC optional, while PS5s “start” at $500 (pre-bundle, pre-resell, etc.) Ross Miller / @ohnorosco : Non-Quest 2 VR headsets still often $500+, but Sony has to worry about building critical mass for a gaming ecosystem it's developing/funding. Wouldn't surprise me if Sony sold PSVR2 at loss to accelerate growth and lean on manufacturing efficiencies to help lessen that over time Ross Miller / @ohnorosco : Love that the “the thousands of tiny PlayStation symbols” that are on PS5 / DualSense will also be on the headset here. Context: https://www.theverge.com/... That said, still *very* curious about the price here. https://twitter.com/... @jonporty : Sony doesn't explicitly say this, but one of the PSVR2's biggest selling points is you can use it without a Facebook account https://twitter.com/... Ryan B. / @prestigeiskey : Looks and sounds like a sizable upgrade from the first! https://twitter.com/... Steve Kovach / @stevekovach : I see a cable... 😬 https://twitter.com/... @nayantararai : Why does this and Oculus look so similar? https://twitter.com/... @jonporty : Looks pretty damn good https://www.theverge.com/... Tom Warren / @tomwarren : Sony has just revealed the PS VR 2 headset design. It's a similar shape to the PS VR2 Sense controller, with a focus on comfort and vents to let air out. It even has a lens adjustment dial. Details: https://www.theverge.com/... https://twitter.com/...
