We know that the Playstation VR will make some of the most beloved universes available for gamers, allowing them (us) to experience an unprecedented level of immersion. A lucky few have been able to explore the horrors of [Resident Evil 7](<https://futurism.com/resident-evil-7-in-virtual-reality-is-claustrophobic-mysterious-and-nausea-inducing>) or soar through the [Star Wars](<https://futurism.com/eas-star-wars-video-shows-vr-experience-with-gamers-in-the-cockpit-of-an-x-wing>) universe.

But when will you get a turn? Well, hold tight.

Sony announced on its [Playstation Blog](<http://blog.us.playstation.com/2016/06/16/playstation-vr-demos-coming-to-retailers-nationwide-starting-tomorrow/>) that you will soon be able to take their new VR headset for a spin. Starting today, 30 Best Buy and Gamestop locations will have demos of the new tech.

The demos are expected to eventually expand to about 300 locations throughout the US and Canada. Games available at the demo include PlayStation VR Worlds, EVE: Valkyrie, Headmaster, Battlezone, and SuperHyperCube.
