Console giant has 'deliberately taken its time to tweak and polish the headset before revealing it'
Sony is set to unveil its own virtual reality headset for the PS4 at GDC next month, according to a report.
An "inside source" has told TechRadar (http://www.techradar.com/news/gaming/sony-set-to-reveal-ps4-virtual-reality-headset-at-gdc-2014-1226620) that he felt people would "definitely be impressed" with the tech, a potential rival to the Oculus Rift.
It is not clear however whether consumers would be able to use the headset for other devices, such as PC, or if it will only work with the PS4.
Sony has long been reported to be developing its own virtual reality headset (http://www.develop-online.net/news/sony-developing-virtual-reality-headset-for-ps4/0115746), and is rumoured to have been close to revealing its plans on a number of occasions before. The source claimed however that the firm "has deliberately taken its time to tweak and polish the headset before revealing it".
The Game Developers Conference 2014 will take place between March 17th and March 21st.
