Shuhei Yoshida, a former PlayStation executive, apologized for the PSVR2 not achieving the success of the PS2. During a podcast, he expressed disappointment and suggested moving on from the topic when asked about the headset's performance. Yoshida, who shifted to the indie gaming sector after leaving his role in 2019, acknowledged that he had little influence on the PSVR2's development. The headset launched in February 2023, but its reception has been largely negative. While some games like Synapse and Before Your Eyes received praise, the PSVR2 is generally seen as a failure. Sony has not released sales figures, and its limited first-party titles have led to comparisons with competitors like Meta Quest 3.
