VR market grows faster than expected

VR market grows faster than expected

Half-Life Alyx, Iron Man VR and the update for No Man's Sky: The investment in Virtual Reality seems to be paying off gradually.

The market research company Superdata raises its forecast for the market for VR and AR  hardware and software. In 2020 as a whole, industry sales are expected to reach USD 6.9 billion - considerably more than the USD 6.3 billion previously forecast.

In the field of VR Headsets, Superdata reports that things have recently gone better than expected, especially for Oculus, a company belonging to Facebook. Around 177,000 units of the Oculus Quest were sold between April and June 2020.

This means that the device has beaten the long-time market leader Playstation VR, which sold around 155,000 units.

Quest is a lot better than the PSVR - was always surprised how many units that sold (and yes, i have both).

VR is here to stay, and i’d certainly encourage any simmers who haven’t tried it to give it a shot.
