PS5 fans have been delivered some exciting news to kickstart 2022 - with rumours circulating that the PSVR 2 headset is going into mass production "soon". And gamers have been left wondering if the next-gen virtual reality device will launch in time for Gran Turismo 7 in March.

PS5 fans could see the PSVR 2 headset launch sooner than expected. As highlighted in a post on Reddit, it's been claimed PSVR 2 will be going into mass production "soon", with Chinese manufacturer Goertek reportedly producing the new PlayStation virtual reality set. The PSVR 2 news allegedly comes from a well respected Chinese supply chain analyst called 黑毛警长008.

This was revealed on Twitter by Brad Lych, a YouTuber and XR hardware analyst/VR level designer.

In a post on New Year's Day Lynch wrote: "Goertek, Chinese manufacturer, will be in charge of mass producing Meta Cambria and PS VR 2 (soon!)

"Goertek sold off Pico to Bytedance earlier this year, but signed a deal to continue producing Pico headsets

"Also expected to supply components for Apple AR/VR HMD."

In a latter post Lynch said PSVR 2 could launch in the second half of 2022.

But PS5 fans are still holding out hope that PSVR 2 could launch around the time of Gran Turismo 7, which is releasing in March, or Sony will reveal the headset around the GT7 launch.

It's rumoured Gran Turismo 7 could provide support for PSVR 2. Gran Turismo Sport supported the original PSVR, but as of yet PSVR 2 support for GT 7 hasn't been announced.

When questioned about this before by Eurogamer, series creator Kazunori Yamauchi did not confirm or deny whether Gran Turismo 7 would have any kind of VR support.

Back in September, Yamauchi-san said: "So regarding PSVR, we’re not at a state where we cannot talk about it yet."

And after these latest PSVR 2 rumours emerged PS5 fans on Reddit speculated we could find out more about the headset in the next few months.

One posted: "I expect them to reveal it before the launch of GT7 cause I think GT7 will be the first AAA FP game fully playable in PSVR2".

While another wrote: "I think GT7 will have VR mode for PSVR users on PS4, similar to GT sports....but it will be fully playable only on PSVR2 for PS5 owners".

And one added: "I imagine this will make PS5s even harder to get." nonstop news
