PSVR 2's price drop makes it cheaper than the Meta Quest 3, and I know which one I'd buy

PSVR 2 up close next to a gaming PC.

I've always thought that PSVR 2 is the strongest all-round VR headset for gaming on the shelves. It may not have the standalone power of the Meta's Quest devices, and it may not have been designed for visually lossless PC gaming, but it has always offered high-end, often innovative VR features for its asking price.

Now, Sony has officially dropped its price tag to $399 in the US, and £399 in the UK. This was a move most likely brought on by an increasingly competitive VR market. Since PSVR 2's launch, the Meta Quest 3, Meta Quest 3S, Pico 4 Ultra, Apple Vision Pro, and HTC Vive Focus Vision have all launched, following PlayStation's lead of bringing 4K VR devices down below a grand in price. PSVR2's price drop takes effect today, and retailers like the PlayStation Direct store are already showing Sony's second VR headset for its new price of $399.
