Quest 2 Sells Millions, Makes VR Mainstream
In a mere six months, Oculus Quest 2 has outsold all previous Oculus VR headsets combined. Oculus Rift, Oculus Rift S, Oculus Go, and the original Oculus Quest were available for a combined period of eight-and-a-half years, to put that in perspective.
However, when it comes to overall units, Oculus Quest 2 is not yet leading the race. That position still belongs to Sony’s beloved Playstation VR with 5 million sales and counting.
A Challenger Appears
Will Oculus Quest 2 take the lead and truly become the world’s most used VR headset? Or will Sony persuade its fans, old and new, to patiently wait for the next generation of PS VR – and perhaps maintain its sales lead a little longer? Will Facebook eagerly release sales figures that trump Sony’s or keep it a mystery and insist on their dominance? Whatever the case, it’s great for VR.
