 Sony’s official blog post today on PlayStation’s new generation of VR. In the announcement, it officially confirmed that “the new generation of VR system is coming to PS5”. The huge leap in performance and interactivity will bring unparalleled entertainment experience.

　　

　　 The following is the original announcement:

　　 More than four years ago, we launched the PlayStation VR. It provides a revolutionary new way of gaming on PS4. Compared with traditional games, it provides players with a stronger sense of presence and deeper immersion. During this time, we have seen a large number of new experiences continue to promote the development of virtual reality games, including the widely acclaimed games "Cosmic Robot: Search and Rescue Operation", "Tetris Effect", "Blood & Truth", "Moss", " Beat Saber" and "Resident Evil 7: biohazard". We have also enhanced the play experience of some PS VR games on PS4 Pro and PlayStation 5.

　　 Today, I am happy to share that our new generation of VR system is about to land on PlayStation 5. The huge leap in performance and interactivity will bring an unparalleled entertainment experience. Players will feel a stronger sense of presence after wearing the new headset, and it will be easier to immerse themselves in the game world.

　　 We will continue to innovate through the new VR system, so that fans will continue to enjoy the unique and charming gaming experience of PlayStation. Since the launch of PS VR on PS4, we have been developing a next-generation VR system to comprehensively enhance its performance in terms of resolution, field of view, tracking and input. It will connect to PS5 with a single line to simplify setup and improve ease of use, while providing a highly realistic visual experience.

　　 The new VR controller is also an exciting innovation. It will integrate some of the key functions in the DualSense wireless controller while paying more attention to ergonomics. This is just one of the future-oriented technologies we are developing to achieve our goal of creating new VR games and experiences.

　　The new VR system is still under development, so it will not be launched in 2021. However, we hope to provide this information to fans as soon as possible, because the development team has begun to work on creating a new world for you to explore in virtual reality.

We would like to thank all PS VR players for their continued support-"After The Fall", "Sniper Elite VR" and "Humanity" and other upcoming games are worth looking forward to. In the future, you can also enjoy more PS VR on PS4 or PS5. Great content. Through PlayStationVR and the next-generation VR system we are building, we are confident about the future of virtual reality as a game carrier.
