Minecraft Ends PSVR Support in March 2025

Bad news for Minecraft fans who enjoy playing while wearing Sony’s PlayStation-branded VR goggles. Developer Mojang has announced that it’s ending Minecraft’s PSVR support in March next year.

A Brief History of Minecraft’s PSVR Support

Minecraft originally gained PSVR support in September 2020 as a free upgrade for the PS4 version. However, the studio has now confirmed the feature’s imminent demise in a new post on its website. The PS5 edition, released this year, doesn’t include similar support for PSVR 2.

What This Means for Players

According to Mojang, “Our ability to support PlayStation VR has come to an end, and will no longer be supported in updates after March of 2025.” While PSVR functionality will cease, the game will remain playable outside of VR and will continue to receive updates.

Players can still build in their worlds, and their Marketplace purchases will continue to be available. However, they will no longer be able to use their PlayStation VR with Minecraft as it will no longer be supported in the latest updates.

New Features and Updates

The latest Bedrock version of Minecraft introduces bug fixes, gameplay tweaks, and a new experimental Bundles feature. Bundles allow players to stack different blocks or items together in the same inventory slot to save space. This update follows Mojang’s recent announcement that it’ll be ditching Minecraft’s traditional single summer update in favor of multiple content drops throughout the year.

Players can still look forward to new content and updates, even if PSVR support is coming to an end.
