Sony is phasing out sales of the PSVR 2 headset, with the device already removed from official PlayStation online stores in several regions. While some stock remains available in parts of the UK and EU, official stores in the US and Japan have ceased direct sales. In Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, the product is now only accessible through third-party retailers.
The company halted production of the headset in March 2024 due to sales figures failing to meet internal expectations. Sony has not resumed manufacturing since that time. Industry reports suggest that the device struggled to gain traction after its initial launch, leading to a significant reduction in corporate investment toward the platform.
Sony has restructured its internal game development teams, closing the SIE London Studio and downsizing the Firesprite studio. These teams were responsible for key VR titles. The company also introduced a PC adapter in August 2024, allowing the headset to function with personal computers, which analysts interpret as a shift away from the device's original exclusive focus on the PS5 ecosystem.
