Upcoming Sony PlayStation VR headset gets priced in Switzerland

20 January, 2016
Not long ago, the official pricing for the Oculus Rift VR headset was revealed. It will cost $599. On the other hand, another highly anticipated entry into the VR space comes from Valve and HTC. This will go up for pre-order on February 29, and it's been rumored to set you back a whopping $1,500.

This reminds me of the movie Batman Forever 1995 - the riddler box :D

    I'm in between $199 - $299. Anymore than that and I'll wait. As a day 1 buyer of the ps4 I feel the it has been an incredible value. I want the same value with playstation vr. I still want to be able to afford some games after the purchase.

      Sony Playstation VR without a doubt is the best looking VR that i've seen.

        More interesting factor, it's probably correct to say Sony will sell it at a loss on the hardware and gamble the they gain market share and growth for the long term

My gaming PC is technically more powerful and I'm not even going to bother with VR until I update my graphics card at least. I suppose the one benefit they have is a universal platform (and kickass RAM) and making hardware and software for it would be a lot easier but I don't think the console itself can produce the resolution and framerate needed for VR to be more believable. The numbers just don't add up in my book...

                  I think they are bundling external graphics amplifier due to vr so the cost is high
