According to Bloomberg, Sony will have two million PSVR 2 units ready for its launch early next year. Considering that the original PSVR headset took eight months to reach a million units in sales, it’s clear that Sony doesn’t want to leave anything up to chance. The figures guarantee that everyone who wants a PSVR 2 at launch will get one. The PlayStation 5 has become the poster child for stock shortages this generation. You can’t blame Sony for wanting to make sure that the PSVR 2 doesn’t suffer from the same fate. Sony has sunk in a lot of time and money preparing PSVR 2 for a more successful launch. To that point, the PSVR 2 has a stacked launch lineup such as Horizon Call of the Mountain and so much more. Plus, several games will have content and/or support for the PSVR2 like the Resident Evil 4 Remake, Resident Evil 8, and No Man’s Sky, among others. It’s unlikely that we’ll get an official confirmation of this number soon. But, we’re still hoping for Sony to announce an official price and release date for the PSVR 2. It’s speculated that the PSVR2 will sell at a $400 price point. However, it wouldn’t surprise us if it had a higher selling price than expected, especially with the recent PlayStation 5 price hike. If nothing else, this recent bit of positive news about the PSVR2 should help erase the bitter taste of the incoming virtual reality headset not being backward compatible with the PSVR.
