PlayStation VR Will Have Over 100 Games For You To Play

This year virtual reality will have its long-awaited commercial release with three new products becoming available. In a recent interview with the BBC, Sony’s Kaz Hirai affirmed that PSVR will eventually have over 100 games in its VR library, and that the company has found tons of cooperation from third-party developers.

The Big Three of VR tech was in attendance at CES 2016, but Sony’s presence was notably quieter than its rivals.

The PlayStation VR headset has been originally revealed as Project Morpheus.

Sony stated that the PlayStation VR is still scheduled for a 2016 release; however, there is no exact date yet. However, a report from the analysts at SuperData Research suggests that PlayStation VR now looks set for success.

Unfortunately, there is no detail right now about how many games Sony plans to launch alongside PlayStation VR, but Sony’s CEO Kazuo Hirai has mentioned various details about the development process, including the number of games currently in development and how many developers are already partnering with Sony to launch games.

“Well, I think the fact that we have more than 200 developers signed up for the PlayStation VR program – who are working on probably about a hundred or more titles that will play on PlayStation VR – is a testament to the kind of support that we’re getting from the content creation community”.

Many are now speculating that the PlayStation VR will debut at $499, making buy-in much more costly than originally anticipated.

Other findings from SuperData include that hardcore gamers are willing to spend around $300 on a VR device, and 74% of people under 18 in the U.S. said they were “very interested” in VR.

International Business Times reported that 2016 will be the year the virtual reality market will thrive. It really is a separate market.
