Now take in the fact that Sony probably has has to pay a publisher to offer their game for free so the publisher gets something out of it, and these overall numbers become even smaller.

$180 million may seem like a lot to us, but Sony reported earnings of 4.1 billion dollars last year, which means that $180 million equates to roughly 4% of potential earning for the company. Multiply that by the cost of the PSVR, and you get roughly 180 million dollars (assuming each one of the 720,000 people paid $250 for the PSVR). 2% of 36 million PS Plus subscribers is only 720,000. It, at best might increase sales by maybe 2% of the PSVR units. Sure, it could help promote the sale of PSVR units, but I highly doubt 12 PSVR free games (I’m estimating that as 1 per month for a year long subscription) would entice someone to buy a PSVR. what would be the benefit in offering something 99% of your customer base could not use? Compare that to 36 million PS Plus subscribers and you get a little over 1% of PS Plus subscribers that statistically own a PSVR. I hate to say, but PSVR only has a 3% attach rate (3 million PSVR units compared to 91 million PS4 units sold).
