Tech Tools: PlayStation VR readies for October launch

The PlayStation VR is coming – but not until later this year. Sony's virtual reality add-on for the PlayStation 4 is set to hit the market in October. With high resolution display and a top refresh rate of 120Hz, the device also undercuts its rivals by a bit, but that price won't include the PlayStation camera that is also needed to track movement. Sony is betting that people may already have that €65 peripheral, along with the wireless dual shock controllers and the console itself; if you don't, that price will rise significantly. There will be 50 games available between the October launch and the end of the year, including the free-to-download Playroom VR, with third-party developers also jumping on board. Not only can the PlayStation VR be used for virtual reality games, but it can also function as a second screen for playing regular games.
