PlayStation VR Tops 3 Million Sales

Sony's PlayStation VR headset for PS4 has now sold in excess of 3 million units, the firm has announced. The headset, released in October 2016, has seen strong software sales, with nearly 22 million VR games and experiences being sold.

To celebrate the 3 million sales milestone, Sony has announced release dates for two upcoming PS VR titles. Creed: Rise to Glory from Survios lets you jump into the shoes (and gloves) of Adonis, played by Michael B. Jordan in the original film and upcoming sequel. The game releases on September 25. Also coming to PS VR is Evasion, a first-person sci-fi shooter from Archiact. Evasion is due for release on October 9. Pre-orders for both games begin today.

Late in 2017 a revised PS VR headset was released. The new model didn't add any essential features, but did include a breakout box that allowed an HDR signal to be passed through (one new 4K TV owners were appreciated of), and thinner cables.
