To celebrate, Sony has opened up about a number of new VR titles currently in development, including alien adventure Bonfire, rhythm game Audica, exploration sim Paper Beast, a new spin on an old favourite with Pixel Ripped 1995, and the "spine-tingling" The RoomVR: A Dark Matter.
It's also revealed a "very special PS VR anniversary sale".
From now until 23rd October, European players can secure up to 60 per cent off PS VR games like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR, SUPERHOT VR, Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot, Batman: Arkham VR, Doom VFR, and Creed: Rise to Glory. For the full list, head to the PS Blog.

On the topic of PlayStation VR a patent for a new PlayStation VR headset depicts several new features which may turn up in a next-gen version of the device. The filing originates from February 2019 but was only been made public earlier this week.
Images show plans for a PSVR headset which includes two front and one rear cameras. A further camera is included on a PlayStation Move-style controller. These headset cameras are in addition to the LEDs installed around the current unit. A microphone will again be included. There's also the option for a further, separate camera to track the user's movements - like the PlayStation Camera or Kinect.
