This January the company finally announced plans to release version 2, revealing the design a month later. Sony never committed to a particular launch date, however, but the assumption was that it will come out this year.<\/p>\n<p>That may be wrong, Ross Young (of <i>Display Supply Chain Consultants<\/i>) reports that the PlayStation VR2 is coming out next year. It\u2019s not clear what caused the delay, not even if this is a delay \u2013 2023 may have been the original target. However, missing the holiday season could affect sales.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"644\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/04\/sony-psvr2-delayed-to-2023\/inline\/-1200\/gsmarena_002.jpg\" alt=\"Sony's PlayStation VR2 headset may have been delayed to next year\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The PSVR2 is designed to work with the PlayStation 5, communicating over a single USB-C cable. That cable will carry 4K HDR imagery at 90 Hz or 120 Hz. The headset hardware is upgraded with a wider 110\u00b0 field of view (up from 100\u00b0 FoV on the original) and a much sharper image thanks to two OLED displays with 2,000 x 2,040 px resolution (vs. a single 1,920 x 1,080 px panel). Two IR cameras for eye tracking give the option for foveated rendering.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, <i>DSCC<\/i> is predicting a huge jump in sales of VR headsets this year, despite the delay of both the PSVR2 and Apple\u2019s rumored headset. The target for the industry is to ship over 15 million panels (it\u2019s hard to say how many headsets this works out to &#8211; some use one panel, others two).<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-source\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DSCCRoss\/status\/1513568513163726862\">Source<\/a> | <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gizchina.com\/2022\/04\/13\/sonys-playstation-vr2-is-delayed-until-2023-but-will-come-with-the-highest-pixel-density-amoled-screen\/\">Via<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<div class=\"source-image\">https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/22\/04\/sony-psvr2-delayed-to-2023\/-952x498w6\/gsmarena_000.jpg<\/div>\n<div class=\"source-link\">https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/sonys_playstation_vr2_headset_may_have_been_delayed_to_next_year-news-53935.php?rand=119<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sony&#8217;s PlayStation VR2 headset may have been delayed to next year Sony\u2019s original PlayStation VR came out in late 2016 and is quite old at this point.
