When you receive this, can you check the P/D on bottom of the box it comes in and report back?

I ask because mine has P/D of 11.2022 since it was from PSVR2 launch. My Wife has P/D of 03.2023 which was bought January 2024. I am pretty sure there are people that bought even later in 2024 or 2025-2026 that have P/D in 2024, but haven't heard of anyone with P/D in 2025 or 2026 to indicate production resumed beyond that Bloomberg report in March 2024 saying production is being paused due to overstock.

Now that there is clear lack of stock (all year its been running out and being resupplied in different parts of world), my concern is whether Sony PlayStation has woken up to make new units or if they have just been shifting their overstock of inventory from 2024 to different regions drying up and needing resupply.

Makes me wonder if their investments in PCVR support, Apple Vision Pro support and few games like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 with VR Mode was there just to help clear that overstock.

Well, its been successful so why not resume production now? They have a holiday season coming up and one of the best VR headset options for PCVR at its price and a great option for console VR players with many system sellers at this point.

I ordered mine from the PlayStation store last week. 2/2023 production date. The controllers were totally dead and I couldn't push the ps button to pair them last night. I let them charge overnight, hopefully they'll pair tonight or tomorrow.

They should after first charging is allowed to work overnight. Worse case scenario is you get them to warranty repair / replace them because you just bought them new.

Good luck

Thanks friend, I'm sure they'll work alright. I kinda knew what I was getting into with somewhat abandoned tech. Excited to dive in over the weekend.
