Sony suggested their Project Morpheus VR headset would be launching in the first half of the year 2016. They also said that this new and improved headset - still tethered to the PlayStation 4 - would be "targeting" 120Hz display tech - that's intense.
As Shuhei Yoshida said today, Sony is "one step closer to realizing our vision of making virtual reality a reality in games." This week the PlayStation 4-centric Project Morpheus VR headset will be shown off to developers who wish to work with the headset in the near future - for PS4 games, of course.
At Mobile World Congress this weekend, HTC and Valve threw down the virtual reality gauntlet; their VR is shipping this year. Now, it looks like Sony is following as fast as it can. It's shipping its Project Morpheus and bring the PS4 into VR-land .
Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios President Shuhei Yoshida announced that Morpheus will launch in the first half of 2016. No further details such as precise launch date or price were announced, but it lays down the gauntlet for other VR manufacturers such as Oculus and HTC/Valve’s recently-announced headset, neither of which have rough release dates.
