When Sony's PlayStation VR headset goes on sale in October, PS3-era motion controller, PlayStation Move, will also be available again in stores. Images of its packing and a product description have now surfaced online, along with confirmation the controller will be available in a double-pack.

As reported by Australian site Press-Start, the PlayStation Move product description states the controller is "not required for [PlayStation VR] titles," but they "will bring the best experience whilst playing VR titles that will utilise [controllers]."

It continues: "Nearly all PlayStation VR titles will support DualShock 4 controllers and several games will deliver an enhanced experience that further immerses gamers with the use of peripherals such as the Move controllers.

"For example, Batman: Arkham VR can be played without Move controllers, however you would be holding DualShock controllers in each hand so the PS4 camera [can] see the light bar for the movement of each hand."

It is unclear whether a single Move controller option will also be available.

Take a look at the packaging for the PlayStation Move below.

The package includes a small processor unit and a series of cables, including HDMI and USB, among others, along with the headset itself. Sony is set to show off a number of VR titles at Tokyo Games Show 2016, which starts on September 16.
