Standalone PlayStation VR Pre-orders to Go Live Next Week

Missed out on the PlayStation VR bundle pre-order? If so, you’ll be relieved to know that it wasn’t just you as pre-orders sold out within minutes. But for many of us who already owned a PlayStation Camera and Move controllers, the bundle, despite being a good deal, wasn’t all that attractive. Luckily, Sony, while initially not wanting to offer pre-orders on the standalone PlayStation VR package, now plans to give us just that. Here is John Koller, Vice President, PlayStation Brand Marketing, SCEA:

 Thanks to everyone for sharing their feedback on PlayStation VR pre-orders! It’s clear that there’s a lot of interest from many of you to secure the PlayStation VR core system 

So when do the standalone PlayStation VR pre-orders go live? That info is after the jump.

Koller continued:

 I’m happy to share that we’ve decided to make it available for pre-order on Tuesday, March 29, at 7:00 a.m. PT at participating retailers. 

As a reminder, the PlayStation VR bundle is priced at $499 while the core package will cost you $399. So make sure to set your alarms and reminders accordingly as this will likely sell out like hotcakes as well.

Will you try to pre-order the standalone PlayStation VR?
