Sony works on a new virtual reality device
On August 17, we learned from Sony Corporation that the company was beginning to develop a new virtual reality device; although they did not explicitly mention that it was a new model of PlayStation VR, but simply that it is a “new generation of virtual reality headsets”.
After outstanding titles in terms of exclusives such as Astro Bot: Rescue Mission or Marvel’s Iron-Man VR, Sony will continue to support the peripheral, whose market penetration has been slow and continued. The community claims, however, that an eventual future PS VR model manages to get rid of the cables and thus become a totally wireless solution.
In that same administrative document, Sony reveals that it has in its plans the arrival of new exclusive PlayStation games on PC as well as the purchase of new studios (notably, in 2019 they were made with Insomniac Games) and the acceleration of exclusive first party launches on PS5.
The PS5 release date is unknown, as is its price. Here we go over all the confirmed games for the new generation of Sony for 2020.
