Unless VR sets gets cheaper you are not going to get big masses to buy it. Maybe i'm looking wrong but i don't really see a whole lot of publicity for Vr to be honest, yes i noticed sony is in the process of making ps5 vr set but that was just a news flash, not an ad. Besides why would they market it for a console you can't even buy the "normal" way. The major problem I see there is the cost at which they sell them. It's really making it very hard for gamers to get into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VR headset sales have started growing rapidly from last year as well: https://www.statista.com/statistics/653390/worldwide-virtual-and-augmented-reality-headset-shipments/ I Eventually, gamers are going to embrace it more and then get into buying it as time progressed.

Boblee Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Yeah, with the time, they would even prefect the VR headset and it might be cheaper at the time, making it easier for gamers to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know the current price of PS4 compatible VR headset? Even if it's the lowest in price value, just give me an estimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The product is still very expensive and it's one of the biggest challenges that most gamers are facing with it and not buying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's frustrating thou with what you've said so far. The reason is that, you can't spend more than you earn, it doesn't work out that way. Most gamers can't afford a product of such calibre especially the average gamers. Maybe at some point in the future it can come down in price and affordable somehow.

Their is no need to feel over what we can't afford now, if I can't afford it now, it means I have to work more harder to acquire it in the future.

Same goes to me, it doesn't suit my gaming needs at the moment. I am enjoying my console with normal headset, and at times I enjoy the music sounding out.

Kane99 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Also with VR, prices are dropping like crazy, meaning that more people can jump into the hobby. Where once, it used to be thousands of dollars just to make it a reality, but now you can buy $300 priced VR headsets that work great. VR is going to become much more accessible in the future.

Seriously, it's something that a lot of gamers have looked up to and with how things are going, they will be able to have the fun they have been left out of for a while.
