Sony shows off its PlayStation VR2 for the PlayStation 5 console

surprise today Sony announced its new virtual reality glasses PlayStation VR2where as is evident, they are designed to be used on your PlayStation 5 console. Almost 5 years after the original PlayStation VR, now we can say that it will be a most rewarding experience, and we are talking about 4K graphics with HDR with the possibility of moving in refresh rates of 90 and 120 Hz. If we add to this rescaling technologies such as AMD FSR (FidelityFX Super Sampling), and the power of the console, because the experience will be complete.

The known information is completed with haptic support, eye tracking, foveated rendering (like normal life, it will only render well where you look, the rest will be blurry saving resources), and thanks to technological advances the glasses they will simply connect via a USB-C cable (the previous ones needed a PlayStation Camera + an external processing unit). This is possible as positioning cameras have been integrated into the viewfinder.

Now, the price will be interesting to know, but we will have to wait for time to know it.

“Our goal is to create a headset that not only becomes an attractive part of your living room decor, but also keeps you immersed in the game, to the point where you almost forget you’re using a headset or a controller. That’s why we’ve paid close attention to the ergonomics of the goggles and have done extensive testing to ensure a comfortable feel for a variety of head sizes.”

“We already received a lot of positive feedback about the ergonomics of the first PlayStation VRs by carefully balancing the weight of the headset and having a simple headband that can be adjusted, so we kept the same concept for PlayStation VR2. Other features, such as the adjustable visor that moves the visor area closer or further away from the face and the location of the stereo headphone jack are also the same, so gamers will be familiar with them.”
