Sony PlayStation VR



PlayStation VR will be most people's introduction to 'good' VR. PLAYSTATION VR PS4 is not perfect, but it's going after console gamers hard and, ultimately, it is still a truly awesome VR experience. There's nothing else in this category of quality but affordable VR, meaning PS VR is the benchmark for mainstream console VR.

Plus, since launch there's been a steady stream of new titles, some from big franchises, with Resident Evil 7 being one of the most notable big entries of late (and a 2017 Wareable Tech Award winner), as are Doom VFR and Skyrim, along with plenty more.

Having sold more than 2 million headsets, Sony is at least winning the VR war on sales and we're expecting it to maintain that momentum through 2018 with both familiar franchises and new IPs on course for PS VR.

With its low price and PS4 compatibility, it's no surprise that PlayStation VR has outsold both HTC Vive and Oculus Rift – even if, by its own admission, the tech isn't quite up to the standards of its competitors.
