RIP PSVR2 and I guess console VR in general for some time. This reminds me of Vita with the hardware team going some direction and none of the studios being interested.
Sony do seem to have some cultural issues. If they wanted PSVR2 they should have put their foot down with studios and demanded output from all of them.
Quest continues to prove that these devices need to be standalone imo - VR is more akin to mobile/social experiences than this idea of AAA VR experiences.
