You may think that so they want to launch the PSVR 2 before the PS5, and it may be, but actually, if this device truly wants to be next-gen, it can’t be compatible with the rather old hardware of PS4. Unity changes how it handles XR Plugins. So sad for me, considering the 5 years I’ve spent using Vuforia in Unity… so many memories….
