He wasn't ready to talk firm pricing plans, but he did say that you won't have to spend $1000 to get your hands on the device, as is the case with Sony's HMZ head-mounted display line.

According to Yoshida, the HMZ line is priced in such a way that Sony makes money on every unit sold. This model doesn't normally apply to game hardware, though, as consoles are often sold at or below cost, and become profitable with the sale of games, accessories, and services.

Yoshida said Sony often prices its gaming hardware lower than other non-gaming Sony devices and explained that he doesn't expect this to change with Project Morpheus. As such, Yoshida explained that a $1000 price point "doesn't necessarily indicate the pricing that we're gonna have" for Project Morpheus.

Don't worry too much on the price. Yoshida has confirmed it will not cost as much as Sony' HMZ lineup:
My guess: it will be around USD300 for VR headset bundled with camera, and USD250 for VR headset.

For the first time see direct feed from the Project Morpheus shark attack experience The Deep.

nDreams, one of the leading developers for Sony’s social networking hub, PlayStation Home, has confirmed it will unveil a new game for Project Morpheus and Oculus Rift at E3 next month.

The studio said that it will showcase a full trailer for the mystery project at the expo, and will provide a behind closed door session allowing gamers to try the VR title for themselves.

In April 2013, nDreams acquired a £250,000 investment from Mercia Fund Management, which allowed the company to boost its operation with board member and former SEGA CEO, Mike Hayes.

Check out a teaser trailer for the Project Morpheus title below.

Hi! We’re announcing our first major VR game today for PS4 with full support for the fantastic Project Morpheus VR headset. You probably haven’t heard of our studio (nDreams) before unless you use PlayStation Home, but we’re a fast-growing team of around 28 based in Farnborough in the UK, and we’ve been developing and publishing for around seven years. The Assembly is a mysterious VR adventure game that we have designed for VR from day one.

We were fortunate enough to start using VR headsets in the middle of 2013. Since then we’ve been experimenting, prototyping and trying all sorts of unusual ideas out. The Assembly includes lots of the gameplay mechanics that we found worked well in VR. For example, you get to control two different characters at various points, and in VR, you really notice details like their different heights, sounds and voices. Rather than playing as a silent character, we found that playing the role of characters in the story works really well, and helps make The Assembly feel quite different to most other VR projects.

The game has a rich story written by Tom Jubert, a talented young writer behind indie hits like FTL, Penumbra and The Swapper. Players are flung into the underground world of The Assembly, a secretive collection of scientists, academics and engineers who believe morality in society is preventing scientific advancement and are committed to discovering a universal theory of everything, at any cost.

Developer nDreams has announced a puzzle-adventure game called The Assembly for PlayStation 4 and PC virtual reality headsets. First shown off during the GameSpot E3 livestream, The Assembly focuses on exploration and discovery within a shadowy science lab. It will work without VR, but elements are specifically optimized for Project Morpheus and Oculus Rift.

The point of the game is to uncover the goals and true nature of the lab you find yourself in. The Assembly, a shady organization that has no qualms about breaking laws, inhabits the building. As nDreams explains, it is "a secretive collection of scientists, academics and engineers committed to discovering a universal theory of everything, at any cost. Flawed laws and morality in society as a whole are preventing scientific advancement and preventing them from unravelling the truth about the world we live in." The developer explains that, as it progresses, the game attempts to induce fear and suspense with the presence of the organization.

NDreams is attempting to achieve a deeper, darker thematic impact with its narrative. Encompassing two different characters, the story includes a variety of moral choices and somber moments that try to make you think about your decisions and actions. Tom Jubert, writer of FTL and The Swapper, is writing The Assembly's story.

VR is meant to increase the immersion and suspense imparted by the game's environments. The game has puzzles "designed specifically to leverage the enhanced visuals provided by VR," the developer explains, "with scenarios involving binoculars, microscopes, night vision goggles, interactive terminals, photography and physics."
