According to a sales brochure released online by Sony for its forthcoming PlayStation VR headset, nearly 60-square-feet of cleared space will be required for using the headset; and players should ideally remain seated whenever possible while playing virtual reality (VR) games using the device.

The online release of the PlayStation VR sales brochure by Sony comes a few months ahead of the scheduled October 13 launch of VR headset. At launch, the $399-priced headset will have a significant lineup of games, like Batman: Arkham VR; Star Wars: Battlefront; Resident Evil VII; and Final Fantasy 15.

Going by a Polygon report, the PlayStation VR sales brochure released by Sony features a drawing which shows the best possible room set up for the upcoming VR headset. The brochure suggests that the play area should ideally be 6.2 feet by 9.8 feet, with the players seated on a sofa in the middle.

Specifically, the instructions given in the sales brochure to players for using the PlayStation VR headset read thus: "Limit your use of PS VR to within the Play Area. Clear an area larger than the Play Area of all obstacles before using PS VR and remain seated whenever possible.”

In addition, the sales brochure further says: “If the application requires you to stand while wearing the VR headset, follow the application instructions carefully, and maintain awareness of your surroundings."
