Sony announces new PSVR for PlayStation 5

Sony announced today that PlayStation 5 is getting its own virtual reality system, a successor to PSVR for PlayStation 4.

The blog post with the news doesn’t offer many details (and zero images) for the new device. Sony did say that it is not coming out this year. It will also connect to the PS5 with a single cord, which is a big improvement over the mess of wires that PSVR needs to work on the PS4.
