PlayStation VR Will Launch In October For $399 With Star Wars: Battlefront Experience
And the last domino of the big VR headsets has fallen. Sony have just announced at GDC that the PlayStation VR will launch in an unspecified October 2016 date. It will undersell both the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive too, by being priced at $399/£350.
The really interesting bit of news comes with the announcement of a VR Star Wars: Battlefront game. Not much is known about it yet, apart from it being made by EA and being set in the game's universe. (Note: it is not a VR version of the current version of the game as best as we can tell.)
This is all interesting indeed. Personally, I think PlayStation VR has the biggest mountain to climb, especially in the long term, compared to the Vive and Oculus, but that price point and the incoming support is promising.
