Sony has announced that it will be offering $100 off the price of the PlayStation VR standalone headset, Doom VFR Bundle, and the Skyrim VR Bundle.

The sale will start on Sunday, February 18 and will run through Saturday, March 3, giving you a couple weeks to cough up the dough and get into VR gaming on the PS4. The PS VR standalone headset will sell for $199.99. Note that price is the headset only. If you want a fuller package you will need to spend the $299.99 price for the PlayStation VR Doom VFR Bundle.

That bundle includes PlayStation VR headset, PlayStation Camera, the PS VR Demo Disc 2.0 and the Doom VFR Blu-ray Disc for the price. Note that it lacks the Move controllers you will need for many games. The full Monty is the PlayStation VR Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR Bundle, it will be on sale for $349.99.

That bundle includes PS VR headset, PlayStation Camera, two PlayStation Move controllers, the PS VR Demo Disc 2.0 and Skyrim VR. The game software includes the core game and all official add-ons including Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn. This slick bundle is the same bundle that Sony allowed some gamers to try in their homes during the Christmas season.

These deals will be offered at participating retailers in the U.S. including Target, Walmart, GameStop, and Best Buy.

The PlayStation VR has been a surprise hit for Sony having sold nearly a million units as of February 2017. Sony cut the price of the PS VR to $399 back in August of 2017 amid stiffer competition from HTC and Oculus.
