We do not yet know when PSVR 2, the new virtual reality headset developed by Sony for PlayStation 5, will be on the market. However, according to one analyst, it is better not to expect it to hit the shelves this year. Because the date it points to us is the beginning of 2023.
Renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who reviewed the PSVR 2 in a series of Twitter posts, claimed that Sony’s new VR headset will soon go into production: “My latest supply chain check is that the assembler and PSVR 2’s several component suppliers It indicates that it will begin mass production in the second half of 2022, with shipments of approximately 1.5 million units.”
Continuing his explanation, Kuo said that Sony may launch PSVR 2 in 2023, depending on the game’s development schedule.
It is worth noting, however, that Kuo’s predictions are not always entirely correct. My example claimed last June that PSVR 2 would be released in April 2022. He also predicted that the Oculus Quest 3 and Apple VR could arrive this year. However, both titles are yet to be officially confirmed…
Still, 2023 seems like a logical date. PS5 stock still suffers and global chip shortages continue. Therefore, it is useful to focus on 2023.
However, this week we may finally officially learn some of what we have been wondering about the product. Sony will release a new Play State event on June 2. Half of the titles at this conference seem to be focused on third-party publishers, but it’s also been confirmed that “we’ll be taking a quick look at a few games in development for PlayStation VR2 early on.”
