Sure thing, let’s dive right into this chaos:

Oh wow, so get this—Apple might finally cave and bless us with VR motion controllers for the Vision Pro. Yeah, I know, wild, right? Anyway, the buzz is they’re teaming up with Sony. Yep, the PlayStation folks. And it’s all about making those PSVR 2 Sense Controllers play nice with VisionOS. I stumbled on this tidbit from 9to5Mac (which—I dunno why—felt like finding hidden treasure).
Now, they’re not just stopping at the PSVR stuff. Nope. Word is, they’re rolling in support for PlayStation and Xbox gamepads too. No biggie, just shaking up the controller scene. But hey, I wonder if we’re actually gonna hear about this at the WWDC? It’s Apple’s big tech bash next week—or sometime later? Who’s keeping track?
Oh, also, here’s a curious nugget (bear with me): Apple’s apparently giving its system names a facelift – visionOS 26? macOS and iOS too. Maybe a mid-life crisis? Who knows.
And then there’s this image I can’t shake—the sound of those controllers clattering on my desk. Like wet cardboard. Makes sense? Probably not, but it’s in my head now. Let’s rewind a bit—Vision Pro. It’s this high-end XR headset—$3,500, yikes!—and it’s been this puzzle for developers since it hit the scene in Feb 2024. Hand-tracking galore and Bluetooth whatnots. But really, some games just beg for those frantic hand-flailingly fun motion controllers, don’t they?
If Apple’s sneaking in these PSVR controllers, it might not rocket them to universe-conquering sales glory or anything. I mean, the thing’s pitched more like a space-age computer than a flashy gaming box. But still, maybe it hints at cheaper versions of Vision Pro down the road, chumming up to us ordinary mortals.
Backtrack to early 2024, Bloomberg’s Gurman claimed Apple knocked on Sony’s door about this PSVR 2 thing. Which is hilarious ’cause Apple previously snubbed the idea of VR controllers. They were like, “Nah, controllers aren’t our jam,” and then whoosh—table flip!
Anyway, the excitement is real. The big show is June 9th at 10 AM PT (apparently), so set your clocks, people. I might tune in on Apple’s YouTube channel or just catch the highlights—I’m a rebel like that.
