Sony is preparing for the launch of its PS VR2, the second version of its virtual reality glasses for PS5. will be available on February 22 at a SUPER reasonable price of 599 dollars, about 50 dollars more than the PS5 console at the time of writing this publication. The purchase of both devices is around 1000 dollars approx
While fans debate possible strengths and weaknesses, Sony is in turmoil. The middle Bloomberg (via 3DGames) has reported that the company has drastically reduced forecasts of sales after observing that the reserves are, and we quote: “disappointing”.
Initially, they expected to sell two million during the first quarter, now they only expect to sell one million. The current forecast is to send 1.5 million to stores between April 2023 and March 2024. The reason has already been stated: the high price of the device
Now it remains to wait for the official figures after launch. At least there will be games during its first days. If the forecasts come true, Sony will sell fewer virtual reality glasses than expected. This would be another consequence of the company’s tendency to raise the price of all your products. It already happened with the rise of the games and now it is the turn of the VR2.
