Sony's PlayStation 5 (PS5) continues to lead the console market in the US, outperforming its predecessor, the PS4, by a significant margin. The PS5's success is complemented by strong sales of its streaming handheld device, the PS Portal, which has become the best-selling accessory in the USA. Additionally, Sony's recent State of Play event highlighted several upcoming titles, including a new Astro Bot game, Monster Hunter Wilds, and a Silent Hill 2 remake. The event also revealed that Sony plans to release live service games simultaneously on PS5 and PC, while single-player narrative games will be exclusive to PS5 initially to entice PC gamers to switch to the console. Furthermore, the PlayStation Plus service's higher-priced Extra and Premium tiers now account for 35% of all subscriptions. Marvel's Spider-Man 2 has achieved 11 million sales, and the average PS5 owner spends an additional $731 on content, services, and peripherals. Sony's Days of Play sale offers significant discounts on PS5 consoles, PSVR2, games, and accessories.

Sony would rather have pcvr come to psvr2 rather than actual psvr2 games. are they waiting on ps5 pro since they know the repro is too much for some people to accept? idk at this point I just dont freaking know
Sony State of Play: The 5 Best Video Game Trailers, Ranked https://t.co/YwmjULzAha

‘Quest 3S’ could be the name of Meta’s more affordable VR headset https://t.co/4VINlagztL
Let's talk VR headsets! 🕶️ Oculus Quest 3 - Standalone, better image, great ergonomics. PlayStation VR2 - For PS5, higher res. Valve Index - High refresh rate, finger tracking. HTC Vive Pro 2 - 5K res, wide FOV, great tracking. Pico Neo 3 - Affordable, solid specs. Tried any? 👀 https://t.co/Qux1rpaHgm
I've noticed that @DreamcastGuy, who has little interest in PSVR 2, showed interest and made mention of Alien Rogue Incursion. This shows how CRITICAL AAA games and IP are at enticing players in VR. And hybrid games can accomplish this at significantly lower cost. https://t.co/2dSexNkBTC
Opinion: It's hard to stay excited about the PlayStation VR2 if even Astro Bot won't wear one. Sony's headset desperately needs a rescue mission, and Ian Higton has ideas: https://t.co/qU9Km26FOl https://t.co/ooTjGo6mUn

While watching State of Play, my housemate mentioned he never played Astro Bot Rescue Mission. Now I really want to break out the PSVR1. This got me thinking about all the other amazing games stuck on that dead platform. Sony's unwillingness to port these games really sucks.

It’s funny watching non vr channels react to state of play & vr games. Behemoth arguably one of the most impressive trailers we’ve had in a while was ‘ok’ to ‘meh, looks good buts it’s VR’… Aliens however got them more excited until they saw the PSVR2 social screen low fps…
PS Portal is going from strength-to-strength, and was once again the best-selling accessory in USA. https://t.co/OCuX3G08VA #Repost #Sony #PS5 #PSPortal #USA #Sales

Highlights from PlayStation’s State of Play: 🧵 https://t.co/KOX2PM7V7u
#StateOfPlay, Alien looks amazing and Astro looks incredible too, truly gutted that there’s no sign of him appearing on #PSVR2. It it weren’t for literally three games on there I’d sell the thing and stick with PCVR, Sony! Why can’t you get behind this headset?
SONY STATE OF PLAY: D+ Wasted our time with Concord for 12 minutes of no gameplay. Meh-ish game announcements. Astro Bot, Dynasty Warriors & Monster Hunter Wilds looked incredible.
Let's review the PlayStation State of Play! https://t.co/rqmKnWKsn6 https://t.co/YJ5A53fon0
Astro Bot looks dope 🔥 Behemoth looks dope 🔥 Aliens Rogue Incursion looks… like they needed a trailer with a stable frame rate Annnnd I wasn’t fussed about anything else, lots of Samurai/Ninja themed games and bloody hero shooters at the moment 🤔😅 https://t.co/iIKRYn9zGa
How would you grade today's @PlayStation #StateofPlay broadcast?
Astro Bot looks incredible. Could be a massive win for them if this pops. Very VERY rad.
