Sony puts VR headset for PlayStation 4 on sale www3.nhk.or.jp
Sony has put a virtual reality headset on sale worldwide for its PlayStation 4 game consoles. It is expected to heat up the global race in 3D technology for computer games.
The PlayStation VR was released in 42 countries and territories, including Japan, the United States and China, on Thursday. The headset is designed to plug into the game consoles.
The maker also put on sale 26 virtual reality games. Some allow users to take under-sea walks, or talk with game characters.
In Tokyo, customers flocked to a Sony store to attend a launch event. Many had reserved the device, which is priced at about 430 dollars at the current exchange rate.
One customer in his 30s said the device will bring him a completely new experience and he cannot wait to go home and play.
Sony Interactive Entertainment executive Atsushi Morita said VR technology has unlimited potential, such as allowing people who are too busy to make trips to enjoy virtual travel. He said now is the time to expand the market through competition among many makers.
Sony hopes to use its global sales network for home video-game consoles to expand its share of the VR game market. US and Taiwanese makers are currently in the lead.
