As for pre-orders Geoff Keighley confirmed via twitter that they should be going live tomorrow at select retailers.

As previously reported PlayStation 5 will support the current PlayStation VR headset so there are no worries about upgrading. You will need an adaptor to connect your current PlayStation Camera but SIE will supply those free of charge. Unless you want to buy the new HD Camera of course.

PlayStation DualSense

As for a PlayStation VR 2, there have been numerous rumours – mainly because of patents – surrounding an improved VR device, but a previous report did say a new version would only be released after PlayStation 5 had released. With today’s Oculus Quest 2 announcement and the fact that Facebook is going all-in on the one model, SIE’s plans for VR are just as important due it being the main rival.

When further details regarding PlayStation VR’s future are available, VRFocus will let you know.
