Sony launched the PlayStation VR, a virtual reality system for the PlayStation 4 system that immerses players into the virtual worlds of their games.

Sony anticipate that PS VR will have a library of approximately 50 games by the end of the year, with more than 230 developers and publishers working in PS VR titles such as Star Was Battlefront Rogue One: X-Wing VR Mission, Resident Evil 7 and Star Trek: Bridge Crew.

“We are incredibly excited to bring virtual reality to PlayStation 4, PSVR puts the player right in the centre of the action, immersing them in extraordinary new worlds. PS VR is a milestone in home entertainment and it very much needs to be experienced to be believed”

- Jim Ryan, President of Global Sales and Marketing, SIE and President of SIEE

Dublin-based gamers can take the new system for a heads-on experience this week at a public pop-up experience in the City Centre. Running until Sunday 16. Octover, gamers or those who are just VR-Curious can book a slot for a PlayStation VR demo on games such as the excellent Headmaster, Battlezone, Eve Valkyrie or many others.
