PlayStation's virtual reality headset may be on its way out. Push Square reports that the PSVR2 headset no longer appears on the US PlayStation Direct store, with only accessories such as the charging station, PC adapter and a case still listed

Road to VR says the removal began in mid October, and the old product link now returns a 404 error. The headset is still sold on the UK PlayStation Direct store

US retailers mostly list third party stock at higher prices, with Best Buy showing around $750. Sony has made no statement, so a formal discontinuation has not been confirmed

Sony cut $100 off PSVR2 for Black Friday 2025. It has reportedly not made new first party PSVR2 games since Horizon Call of the Mountain, and reportedly sold its VR patents to Meta in October 2026

PSVR2 had impressive hardware but struggled to build a strong library of games. Without Sony's own titles, it was always going to be hard to justify the price. The PC adapter has given it a second life for some owners, which is a good thing

Did you buy a PSVR2? And does console VR have a future?

Sony's PC adapter was a smart move. It let owners use the headset with SteamVR. That gave it a much bigger library

Shame it came so late. Sim racers loved PSVR2

Horizon Call of the Mountain was a great showcase. It deserved a sequel. Gran Turismo 7 in VR was amazing too. The potential was there

PSVR2 had brilliant hardware. The OLED screens and eye tracking were superb. It just never had enough games

Seven hundred and fifty dollars at Best Buy for old stock is silly. Nobody should pay that. Look for second hand bargains instead. Second hand prices may drop

Console VR may come back one day. The technology keeps improving. Timing just was not right this generation

VR needs killer apps to succeed. Sony never found enough of them. Hardware alone was not enough
