It seems there really is a huge demand for “Sony’s PlayStation” VR system, since the thing is going like hot cakes, and it isn’t even on shelves yet. Pre-orders for the device have been massive and now, “Sony” is going to be offering its final phase for customers who want to be among the first to have their very own VR systems for the console.

Detailing the pre-order summer wave with an official blog post, “Sony” iterates that this will be the last time customers will be able to reserve their own VR headsets for the “PlayStation 4.’ The offer will start this June 30, so that’s a date that fans of the VR addition will want to keep in mind.

Unfortunately for those who are eager to get their hands on the newest addition to the console industry, supplies are limited and not everyone will have the chance to get the headset during the release date or before. For those who miss out on the craze, they will simply have to wait until the headsets are sold in retail stores.

As Gamestop reports, the VR headsets will be released in October this year, and it is likely that the wave of buyers who will storm retail stores will result in some eager players unable to get sets of their own. So this is definitely something that customers will want to keep in mind if they are in a rush to try the VR offering for the ‘PS4.”

As far as the number of games that the VR technology will support, “Sony” announced during E3 that over 50 titles are supported at the moment, according to IGN. Among these titles include the promised “Batman: Arkham” VR as well as “Farpoint.” More titles will likely be added to the list, with plans to implement VR features with games including “Fallout 4.”
