PlayStation users of Minecraft will soon lose the ability to enjoy the game using PlayStation VR headsets. This feature, available for around four years, will be discontinued following an update slated for March 2025, as announced by Mojang Studios, the game’s publisher and developer.
The option to play Minecraft in virtual reality was first introduced for PlayStation 4 players in September 2020. This update brought several features tailored specifically for PlayStation VR, enhancing the immersive gaming experience.
The news about the discontinuation of PlayStation VR support was shared in a recent weekly changelog on Minecraft's official website. While the announcement did not specify the reasons behind this decision, it clarified that any updates released after March 2025 would no longer support the VR device. However, players who have been using PlayStation VR will still retain access to their existing worlds on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, along with any tokens or items purchased in the game's Marketplace.
Despite the removal of VR support, there may still be hope for those who prefer a virtual reality experience with Minecraft. Unlike standalone VR headsets, the PlayStation VR requires a connection to either a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5 console. Sony also launched the PlayStation VR 2 in early 2023, but this new device is not backwards-compatible with the original PlayStation VR, meaning games designed for one will not work on the other. As of now, Minecraft has not been announced as a title for PlayStation VR 2, despite evident demand from the community on platforms like Reddit. Some fans remain skeptical about this potential transition, especially since Mojang is owned by Microsoft, a competitor of Sony.
In related news, Mojang recently revealed that Minecraft Live 2024 will take place on September 28. This annual online event typically unveils exciting updates and future plans for Minecraft, so it may provide additional insights regarding the game's virtual reality options on PlayStation.
