Prior to its launch, Sony said it was expecting the PlayStation VR2 to outsell its predecessor, but things have certainly not panned out that way thus far. Over a year on from its launch, the PS VR2 has all but faded into obscurity, with a number of factors – from its high price to a dearth of meaningful software support – contributing to the virtual reality headset’s low sales.

Horizon Forbidden West developer Guerrilla Games is reportedly cutting 10 percent of its staff.
These reductions at the studio come as part of yesterday's announcement that 900 employees will lose their jobs across multiple studios and departments. In total, this equates to eight percent of PlayStation's workforce.
According to Dutch newspaper AD (via VGC), Guerilla is set to lay off 40 employees, about 10 percent of its staff. Eurogamer has asked Sony for further comment.
Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition — Features Trailer | PC Games Horizon Forbidden West PC features trailer.Guerilla was acquired by Sony in 2005. Since then, the studio has become best known for its work on the Horizon series. Last year, the studio released its Burning Shores expansion for Horizon Forbidden West. It also worked alongside Firesprite on the PS VR2 title, Horizon Call of the Mountain.
As for the series' future, Guerrilla confirmed it will be «continuing Horizon for a long while.» This will include the upcoming Netflix adaptation, its new co-op-focused online project and a third game focused on Aloy. Additionally, the studio was also rumoured to be working on a remaster of Zero Dawn.
Meanwhile, next month, the Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition will launch on PC. As you might imagine, the Complete Edition (which launched for PlayStation last October) bundles the base game and expansion together, along with a variety of in-game items. These include an exclusive pose and face paint for Photo Mode, plus five items that can be unlocked by progressing through the story: the Carja Behemoth Elite outfit and Short Bow, the Nora Thunder Elite outfit and Sling, the Apex Clawstrider Machine Strike piece, and a resources pack containing ammunition, potions, and travel packs.
