A few moments ago Andrew House, President and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment, took the stage to announce the long awaited reveal of PlayStation VR’s pricing and release date, but he also announced a huge new gaming that will be heading to the headset as well.
House states that Sony has partnered up with EA, DICE, and Lucasfilm to create a Star Wars Battlefront VR experience exclusively for PSVR. You can now literally insert yourself in an X-Wing and become the best pilot in the galaxy. However, no release date for the game was announced.

PlayStation VR is set to release later this year in October 2016and it will cost you up to $399. This is currently the cheapest VR headset out to date, with Oculus starting at $599 and HTC Vive sitting at $799. Sony did say it would cost as much as a console would and they came through on that.
For everything PlayStation VR, stick with Gamezone.
