The Future Is Here
One of Sony’s big pushes in 2015 has been PlayStation VR (formerly known as Project Morpheus, a much cooler name). With Oculus rising in popularity and several other companies throwing their hats into the VR ring, the PlayStation brand needed to make a mark, and they needed to do so quickly.
The peripheral was announced early 2014 although very little was shown off. There were some live demos to give everyone an idea of what to expect, but it was clear that PlayStation VR was very much under development. Fast forward to 2015 and you have something much more solid, something a lot closer to what players can expect to use in 2016 when it finally releases.
That it has a huge lineup of games, is comfortable to wear, and has a focus on delivering the best in VR technology shows that Sony is serious about bringing this experience to the PlayStation 4 and beyond. This was a message that was made clear at every single event of 2015, and it was one of the driving forces of their shows and popularity.
What many have been taking as just a fad or unfounded hype, the engineers that are part of the PlayStation team have turned into a bright future.
