Update: Sony Announces Release Date For the $550 USD PlayStation VR2 Headset
The next generation of PlayStation VR is coming soon — but it isn’t coming cheap.
Update: After announcing a “release window” for the PlayStation VR2 headset back in August, Sony has revealed the official date of arrival, pricing information and pre-order details for the device, as well as debuting 11 more games.
A standard VR2 set, which includes the headset itself, Sense controllers and stereo headphones, will run you $550 USD, more than the price of a PlayStation 5. A bundle with Horizon Call of the Mountain will be available for $600 USD, and a separate charging station for the Sense controllers is $50 USD (otherwise, they’ll be able to charge through a wired connection).
Sony has also announced 11 additional games for the headset, including Jurassic World Aftermath Collection, a new game in The Dark Picture horror franchise called Switchback VR and a new version of successful first-person shooter franchise Crossfire. Original PS VR games will not work with the new headset.
The Sony PlayStation VR2 headset will be made available for pre-order on November 15. See the original article below for more info.
Original Story: After offering a first look earlier this year, Sony has now officially announced an “early 2023” release window for its PlayStation VR2 headset. The second iteration of PlayStation‘s flagship virtual reality headset promises to be a significant upgrade, offering up to 4K resolution, a 120 HZ refresh rate, 110-degree field of view, and over 20 VR games at launch including No Man’s Sky and Resident Evil Village.
Additional features include foveated rendering, integrating an eye tracker that reduces the rendering workload by reducing image quality in the peripherals, and on-device cameras which provide motion-tracking and view of surroundings. In July, PlayStation further announced native broadcasting and live streaming capabilities as well as a cinematic mode offering HDR support at 1080p. Putting an emphasis on ergonomics, new orb-shaped controllers offer haptic feedback and finger-touch detection, and the universal headsets are connected via a single USB-C wire.
Stay tuned for more details regarding exact release dates and pricing.
