Thanks to a screenshot of PlayStation 4 firmware 3.50 (beta) , we find that the new PlayStation VR will not be suitable for children under the age of 12.

Here is the photo (now no longer available on the forum), posted on Reddit :

User “KGrizzly” had shared the new safety warning screen added in the “ Health and Safety” section with firmware 3.50. Among the various notices for the use of VR we find:

• The VR headset is not suitable for use by children under the age of 12
• Check the surroundings and possible obstacles before use. Take steps to prevent animals, children or other obstacles from entering your area.
• Some people may experience motion sickness, nausea, disorientation, blurred vision, or other types of discomfort while watching virtual reality content. If any of these symptoms occur, stop using the VR headset immediately.
