At this year's GDC conference, Sony announced that it would launch the PS VR virtual reality device at a price of $399, which immediately received warm support from the majority of players. Although Sony's products have never been known for price performance, PlayStation is indeed a surprise. HTC Vive VR costs $599, while Oculus Rift costs $799. The price performance of PS VR, which is only $399, is quite high.
Today, the first batch of PlayStation VR pre-sales on Amazon sold out in just ten minutes. The unusually hot sales of PlayStation VR made foreign analysts have a bold prediction: PlayStation VR will account for 64% of VR devices in 2016, and the sales volume is expected to reach 1.6 million sets.
Sony officially announced that more than 50 VR games will be launched this year, and more than 160 VR games are still under development. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that 2016 is a year of VR explosion.
