PSVR2 Sales Stall, Sony Halts Production After Lackluster Demand
- Sony has halted production of the PSVR2 headset after selling only 2 million units since its February launch, with sales declining each quarter
- The $550 PSVR2 is expensive compared to the PS5 itself and VR remains a niche market
- The PSVR2 is not backwards compatible with original PSVR games
- The PSVR2 lacks a big system-selling game beyond the launch title Horizon Call of the Mountain
- Sony is testing PSVR2 support on PC, which could help sales uncoupled from PS5 hardware
