PlayStation VR2 to come with “more than 20 games” at launch

Sony has been talking about the second-generation PlayStation VR, aka PlayStation VR2, for over a year. Sony has revealed bits and pieces of information about what to expect. In fact, the tech giant even gave a glimpse of the setup earlier this year. While there are no exact details about when it will launch, what could be said with some certainty is that it will come with a good library of games. Jim Ryan, the head of PlayStation, revealed that the PlayStation VR2 would launch with more than 20 major titles.

According to Sony’s investor presentation slide, the company expects to make more than 20 games available for the PlayStation VR2 at the launch. While the company did not reveal the titles or the developers behind these games, it did mention that the games would include first- and third-party titles, including the previously-announced Horizon spin-off, the Horizon Call of the Mountain.

Neither Sony nor Ryan talked anything about when we can expect the PlayStation VR2 to arrive. Still, Ryan did suggest that the next-gen VR console from Sony will have a more promising library of virtual reality content than its predecessor.

“There is a considerable amount of money being spent on partnerships with independent and other third-party developers to secure a considerable pipeline of attractive VR content at the launch of PlayStation VR2,” Jim Ryan, Sony Interactive Entertainment president (as reported by Video Games Chronicles).

He further added, “That energy, that effort and that money will continue to grow as the installed base of PlayStation VR 2 headsets grows also.”

Sony first announced the PlayStation VR2 in early 2021, and we have been waiting since then for its arrival, which seems highly unlikely to happen this year. According to analysts, the PlayStation VR2 is unlikely to launch this year due to the ongoing silicon shortage, so it might not be coming before next year.
