f1 2024 PSvr2

You can play it on PSVR2.    Just need  headset/adapter/PC and game on Steam:   

Yes … and a PC at 2.5 k$

@MeteoreIt’s the only way. Sony have all but came out and said it’s failed on PS5 as 95% ish off PS5 owners have not felt it’s not for them. By making it work on PC has effectively killed any chance of any big AAA games coming to PSVR2 + PS5. No need for developers to spend time and money specifically supporting PS5..

A long time ago we had video tapes that play movies etc.  there were two formats Beta max and VHS.    Beta Max was by far the superior.  However it was slightly more complex than VHS.   And not much more in price.  However  movies on VHS were released quicker and more readily available.   Beta Max despite it being better.  Couldn’t sell the numbers and died.  Before disks VHS rained supreme 

Moral of story just because something is better than everything else.   If it doesn’t come with content and cheap. Vast majority off people are not gamers and with cars if they don’t get it 

Doesn’t look good

yes dark, but not dead yet maybe.

Agree w his take that VR in general is as much the issue as well as Sony’s current strategy. The discounts will juice some sales, and some 3rd party stuff may keep some interest.

But yeah for VR, corporate gaming spreadsheet dev accounting likley won’t add up at the moment when the whole industry is a bit stressed. And that model is getting tired even for flat games so its a bit self reinforcing (however I do still wonder why EA/CM bothered w VR for the PC versions of F1 and WRC given cost/pain vs payback)

The must have VR experience is still elusive i guess for the larger audience but driving/racing is one for me w so much added immersion

PSVR2 now being sold with a £180 and $200 discount in the UK and US respectively. Glad it's now at a more suitable price point and seeing people now adopting it who were waiting on the price to go down.  Hoping the increased ownership will see EA/Codemasters make the next F1 game playable on it. The F1 game sales are tanking and I'd imagine part of it is due to VR supporters refusing to going back to flat screen racing.   

@superhoops82  There’s basically no chance F1 25 has VR compatibility. The reason sales are tanking is because the core gameplay is getting worse.

The handling has been controversial since launch, the AI race in NASCAR style packs due to some unsolvable issue relating to ERS/ DRS/ Dirty air just to name a few of the games issues.

The dev team needs to go back to basics and straighten out their game engine before they can even consider adding fancy stuff like VR…

Also, sorry to break it to you, but Sony discounting PSVR2 isn’t exactly good news for the pro VR crowd. That’s just them trying to offload inventory and at least recoup manufacturing costs.

You’re wrong. It increases the customer base. Pretty basic business logic

Agreed.  It's great that the customer base is going to get a boost and don't see it as a bad thing at all.  Only stores in the UK and US are doing these limited time discounts currently so not sure how it came about for these countries specifically.  I see Amazon have already sold out at that price point in the UK which is good going.  It's a good way for Sony to guage an appropriate price and see if there is genuine interest in VR and if it was just the high cost was what was holding it back in terms of sales.

Selling at cost or thereabouts will be beneficial in the long run as an increase in VR game sales will make up for it.  Better than having unsold headsets that aren't bringing in extra revenue.

I guess we'll get a better idea of PSVR2's future over the next 12 months or so, but I'm not panicking just yet, especially while games are being made/ported for it, regardless of who the developer is.

@Cooper4000 Yes, offering sales is a good business strategy for increasing the customer base when you have a solid product you plan to support long term. However there's nothing that points to that being the case.

Sony is reportedly pulling the plug on PlayStation VR 2, only has two games in development (tweaktown.com)

Report: Sony Balks on PSVR 2 Game Development (roadtovr.com)

Rumor: Sony Making "Deep Cuts" To Funding For PSVR 2 Games - Gameranx

Which means they're just trying to offload what they can, write-off the rest and move onto the next project.

i want to bring up this topic: since ps5 pro has been released and it has A LOT of extra power.. is psvr2 compatibility been considered? 

if thats a matter of power and ps5 pro fixes it we can hope to play in VR on our ps5! 

For f124 definitely not and im not expecting it for F125 either but i may be wrong
