VISION PRO MAY SOON SUPPORT SONY PSVR 2 CONTROLLERS! APPLE, SONY IN RUMOURED PARTNERSHIP TO UPGRADE GAMING!
In the fast-paced world of technology where the future becomes the past within the blink of an eye, a potent collaboration between tech titans, Apple and Sony, presents exciting implications for the landscape of virtual reality. As per the claims by Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the Vision Pro might be on the threshold of attaining compatibility with Sony PSVR 2 controllers.
The corresponding announcement, originally slated for launch weeks ago, has been delayed. The suspension of such a significant revelation got tongues wagging in the tech community and debunked the relative silence about this affair.
This alliance may trigger Apple's retail interest, leading to the company selling Sony's exclusive VR controllers which, until recent news, were not available for individual purchase. The implication of Apple venturing into retailing individual components instead of selling wholesome tech products in itself is a testament to the transformative potential of this collaboration.
According to sources, Sony has reportedly invested significant time and resources into developing this integration. In a parallel move, Apple has sought the views of third-party developers on the integration, a move potentially designed to nurture a comprehensive and immersive experience for end-users.
This development is particularly significant for Vision Pro users desiring enhanced game functionality for their headsets.
However, the collaboration's impact isn't just limited to gaming. It’s assumed to have a potent fallout on the professional spectrum as well. Apple reportedly plans to use these Sony controllers for navigation within visionOS and while executing commands in professional applications like Final Cut Pro and Adobe Photoshop.
Yet the path ahead seems uncertain. Despite the Vision Pro's existing mainstream traction and Apple's deep-rooted ties with game publishers, it is unclear whether this partnership will bolster the game offerings on the platform.
Contrary to the tech giants' concerns, the community's interest appears to be spurred. This interest is evident from a successful Kickstarter campaign to develop Meta Quest 3-style controllers for Vision Pro.
If the recent past has any bearing on the future, we’re likely on the precipice of a significant shift in the world of virtual reality. The only question is: Will this shift lead the Vision Pro to new heights, or create unexpected obstacles in an industry that’s already full of surprises?
