PlayStation VR will launch in the US on October 13, 2016, Sony has confirmed. The PS4-compatible virtual reality headset will get more than 50 games by the end of the year, according to Sony's E3 press conference event.

Sony also reconfirmed that the headset will cost $399 - though that doesn't include the price of a PS4 Camera, which is also required along with a PS4 system.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and was formerly a staff writer at GamesRadar+.
