However, data released by Sony appears to indicate otherwise. Taking a quick look at Sony's PlayStation VR sales, we see that the original PSVR1 sold 915,000 units in the first five months since launch (October 2016 - February 2017). The PSVR2, however, managed to sell 300,000 units in its first month of availability. In a single month, the PSVR2 has already sold 1/3rd of the PSVR1's 5-month unit sales. This is also significant considering the PS4's installed base had significantly outpaced the PS5's installed base when each of the VR headsets had launched, and that the PSVR2 is more expensive with a $549 price tag.

Just because it’s selling more than it’s predecessor doesn’t mean that it’s not still coming in below expectations
Yeah, it's like Trump always saying he got the most votes of any sitting president. He still lost to Biden

Companies cherry pick statistics to fit a narrative all the time. I have a PSVR 2, but I don't think it's selling as much as they'd hoped.
