Sony PlayStation VR official unboxing video

Virtual reality is sure to be wildly popular -- eventually. Currently, it is a bit too expensive. Not to mention, there is still a lot of uncertainty about which platform to purchase. On the PC, VR content is not always cross-compatible, making a decision between, say, the HTC Vive or Oculus Rift difficult.

For now, a console-based virtual reality solution could make more sense. Sony's PlayStation VR will hit stores next month, and many PS4 owners are chomping at the bit to get it. Today, Sony releases an official unboxing video for the device.

"Now that we're just two weeks away from the nationwide launch of PlayStation VR, I wanted to give you a look at what's inside the Core package. In the U.S. and Canada, the Core bundle will come with the PS VR headset and processor unit, wired stereo headphones, all required cabling and the PS VR Demo Disc, which contains 18 sweet demos -- some of my favorites include Here They Lie and Battlezone, but try 'em all and let me know your top pick", says Sid Shuman, Social Media Director, Sony.

Shuman further says, "if you missed out on pre-orders, the PS VR Core package will be also available at participating retailers nationwide on launch day, October 13. Until then, you can always try out PS VR for yourself at hundreds of retail stores".
