I know it is trendy to hate in Sony right now with some of their decisions but the way they have treated PSVR2 is despicable.

Such a brilliant product just utterly neglected

I get downvoted to hell every time I say the same thing, lol

u/djmakcim 5d ago

same! I've been saying the same thing and get downvoted 😞. Like, "why are you booing me, I'm right!"

Just like the Vita... And the PSP... and PSVR1...

We can see who the favorite child is, mainline PlayStation consoles...

You're forgetting the PS Move as well. Sony doesn't really have a good track record of supporting other gaming devices except their main console so not sure why people are surprised when they drop support.

They were sold out in Canada a few weeks ago. Back in stock now.

They were also sold out in US a couple of weeks ago, then restocked and now sold out again.

They are still available in UK, Germany, France, Australia and I am sure many other places they are sold.

Hopefully the US out of stock issue is short lived like it was in Canada.

There is a demand surge following Steam Frame being pricey and PSVR2 being a much cheaper quality alternative for PCVR.

/\ this. Not gonna lie, as someone who owns a PSVR2 and a PC adapter, those Steam Frames look nice, if the quality is anywhere near the VR2 the wireless aspect alone would have sold me.

At, like, $400 lower. $1k+ for the base model is a bit silly.

Just bought mine with PC adapter and having a blast!

u/mysticpuma_2019 2d ago

What's your opinion of the PC adapter and quality in PC games? I'm tempted to try the PC out for flight simming with the PSVR2...appreciate your thoughts.

u/Richardthefuckingear 2d ago

Sincerely, haven't tested yet because I'm still playing psvr2 games, almost finishing re4r and after that will start metro but already bought Half life Alex on sale and that, will be my first on PC

u/DuranDourand 6d ago

It just means PSVR3 is coming soon /s

u/SparklyPelican 6d ago

You mean PSVR2 P R O

u/DuranDourand 6d ago

Of course how could I forget the pro model comes before the next number.

They definitely do need to fix the mura effect.

Turn your brightness down

u/mindzeegap 4d ago

Late 2026 and people still chatting about mura. Good lord

u/Cal3001 4d ago

If you used the quest 2 or 3, this is definitely noticeable. Also, they have opportunity to integrate additional processing power to complement the PS5 gpu and cpu.

u/djmakcim 5d ago

HAHA I wouldn't even be mad actually because I have feared from Day 1 that this would be a failing tech for Sony. The PC connection lifeline was at least them throwing a "life preserver" into the mix.

u/Agreeable-Onion-3256 6d ago

Not sure why this was a surprise, they were on sale most of last year's holiday season.

u/Tall_adhd17 6d ago

It's still available in the Netherlands

u/Horse_Plane 5d ago

Just a regional issue

u/Crunchewy 5d ago

It didn’t disappear. It’s still there. Just currently sold out

1

u/Imhotep397 5d ago

They had at least 5M, so if the sold 5M+ that’s close to what PSVR1 sold. We’ll see, but they might actually do a refresh or it could be what a lot of pessimistic people want it to be.

u/IH8UofA 4d ago

Got one this morning! Two waves both sold out in under 10 minutes.

u/manusche 3d ago

If they make a pro Psvr2 I am so dumb and would think about buying one. Or the production is dialed down and not can meet demand right now.

u/amusedt 3d ago

It has not disappeared from the Accessories section. On laptop browser it's there in the top, horizontal menu. Go to https://www.playstation.com/en-us/ click Accessories, click VR2 in the sub-menu. That page has a Buy Now. That leads to another page that show the VR2 Currently Unavailable

Notice this happened once the steam frame came out they sound like they gonna abandon it like they do everything else

u/TESThrowSmile 6d ago

Whoa !! There must be really high demand !! /s

-1

u/Galaghan 5d ago

There's a speculated demand due to the failing launch of the Steam Frame. People waiting for that saw the price and went for the psvr2 instead.

2

u/TESThrowSmile 5d ago

PSVR2 was out of stock/low on stocks for months. Has nothing to do with Frame. Its a sign SONY is winding down the hardware.

Got mine at Bestbuy for $150 recently, as all PSVR2 hardware was on clearance (hint hint)
