The world of virtual reality (VR ) has been evolving rapidly in recent years, partly due to its excellent compatibility with games. Many people may say that the first time they experienced VR was with the " Virtual Boy " released by Nintendo in 1995, but things have really evolved since that time. Nowadays, we can experience VR even with smartphones, but the immersive feeling of dedicated VR equipment is different, and various manufacturers are releasing VR headsets. Of all of them, the PS VR for PS5 " PlayStation VR2 " (hereafter referred to as "PS VR2") is probably the one that is garnering the most attention! The PlayStation VR headset, which has a great reputation at the current PS VR stage, is said to have evolved even further, and we have a feeling that the performance and features announced today alone will be nothing short of extraordinary, and the titles that will be supported are " Horizon Call of the Mountain," "Resident Evil VI" and "Resident Evil VI". It would be impossible not to have high expectations for the supported titles, which are all classics such as "Horizon Call of the Mountain," " Resident Evil Village," and " BIOHAZARD RE:4. PS VR2 was recently announced for release in early 2023, and now the release date and price have finally been announced!

Considering that the regular edition of PS5 costs 60,478 yen (including tax) and the digital edition costs 49,478 yen (including tax), the price may raise various opinions, but considering the price range of other VR headsets currently on the market and the performance of PS VR2, it may not seem "too expensive. However, considering the price range of other VR headsets currently on the market and the performance of PS VR2, it may not seem "too expensive". Now that the release date and price have been confirmed, we are wondering when pre-orders will begin. The PS5 console is still difficult to purchase, and the "DualSense Edge Wireless Controller," for which reservations began the other day, is still being fought over as the planned number of units were immediately sold out, so the PS VR2 is going to be a tough one...
