With the PlayStation PSVR 2 now available to pre-order, will this (impressive) hardware companion to the PS5 beat the odds to succeed?

The price comparison between the PSVR 2’s and the Meta Quest Pro is probably more significant in my point of view, given that both are launching into the same economic climate at high price points. The PSVR 2 is less of a financial blow by comparison to the Quest Pro, but customers will still be treading carefully regardless. Even so, the PSVR 2's capabilities stack up extraordinarily well against its Meta rival, arguably justifying its high cost.

Still, there’s no escaping the fact that the PSVR 2 will be releasing at a time and with a price where a vast majority of consumers – even those who might otherwise have been anticipating the PSVR 2’s release – sadly won’t be able to consider it as an option. And this is even before acknowledging that production of the PSVR 2 is likely already running at a loss for Sony.

Take The Dark Pictures: Switchback VR, for example – one of the handful of games shown off by PlayStation recently. Coming from Supermassive Games, the developers of the Dark Pictures Anthology series and previous PSVR horror title Until Dawn: Rush of Blood, Switchback VR sets you up on a rollercoaster ride through a series of horror events, spooks and scares. Sound familiar? It should, because that also describes Until Dawn: Rush of Blood.

While the current tough conditions are beyond its control, Sony will nevertheless go the distance and do everything possible to get the PSVR 2 onto as many heads as possible. The hardware is very impressive, and the actual value is also extremely strong when stacked up against PC equivalents – with PSVR being technically superior to most of them, in addition to being roughly half the price.
