The problem with existing VR tech is that it's still too cumbersome to use. Nobody wants to wear a hefty computer strapped to their face for casual use, let alone for prolonged periods of time. The form factor needs to be much more lightweight and unobtrusive for the product to have a chance at mass adoption.

There are AR devices in the form of sunglasses now, but the displays and experience pale in comparison to VR headsets.

We're still a few more generations away from VR headsets shrinking and AR glasses improving for this experience to be universally enjoyable.
