Sony Will Continue Pushing PS VR
Since launching their iteration of virtual reality back in 2016, Sony’s PS VR headset has sold over 4 million units. Considering that there are tons of VR units sitting around in the homes of consumers, one would hope that the PS5 would support PS VR, right?
Well, don’t worry, because Mark Cerny has told Wired that VR is very important to the company going forward with the new console.
Not only will the current PS VR units be compatible with the PS5, but Cerny also states that there is an ongoing plan for VR pertaining to the PS5, a strategy that he couldn’t talk about, but says that VR can be even better on the PS5, thanks to a custom unit for 3D audio that both the PS3 and PS4 lacked.
Sony has been pushing PS VR more than ever lately, leading to some pretty strong sales this past holiday season. Whether or not you think VR is the future, Sony is making sure that the PlayStation ecosystem is the best place to play these type of experiences.
