Sony denies Bloomberg news headphone pre orders

We would indeed go from 2 million PSVR 2 products to one million, due to a lower and disappointing appetite on the part of the public. Information denied a few hours later by Sony in person who spoke with Gameindustry.biz website to reassure investors but also players. There is “no decrease in PSVR 2 production” according to a Sony spokesperson, who even states that “the excitement of PlayStation fans for the upcoming launch, which includes over 30 titles like Gran Turismo 7, Horizon: Call of the Mountain and Resident Evil Village” is palpable.

Meticulously chosen words to remind that the PSVR 2 will be accompanied by many games at its launch, again to reassure consumers. It must be said that the PSVR 2 is often singled out, for its price of €599, its lack of compatibility, but also the absence of a consistent line-up to ensure interest around the VR mask. Damage control from Sony Interactive Entertainment or sincere declarations? Despite this immediate intervention, many Internet users remain skeptical of these comments, which are not reassuring. If we assume that the denial of the Japanese manufacturer is real and sincere, this means that 2 million helmets will be produced for the launch on February 22. In any case, on Bloomberg’s side, we maintain this deceptive waiting information…
