Most people have only interacted with VR as a means to travel, but when discussing VR console gaming, the immersion and emotions that Sony’s VR2 has brought to the surface are one-of-a-kind.
Seven years after the first-ever PS VR headset, Sony has mastered the art of making a plug-in console VR named PS VR2.
PS VR2: Best VR headset for PS5
- The recently launched VR2 for PS5 proves the best headset to tap the imaginative possibilities that one could only think of.
- The PS VR2 is powered by vivid OLED displays, and fantastic vibrating controllers with indigenous feedback triggers while running on the top-notch graphics that the PlayStation 5 delivers.
- The next-gen processing of the PS5 enables you to behold every moment insanely detailed.
- Its two powerful OLED displays deliver incredible 4K HDR visuals at up to 120fps1 with a resolution of 2000x2040, which amounts to four times the resolution of the original PlayStation VR.
- The most outstanding feature of PS VR2 is that it gives an incredible sense of living in VR gaming environments with a 110-degree field of view. Meanwhile, a customisable Fresnel lens allows you to adjust the spacing between lenses as per your eye position for optimal viewing.
- It also brings a 4.5 metres (14.7 feet) long cable, which needs to be attached to the PSVR 2 headset.
- When worn, the headset nicely fits your head through a single knob like the original PSVR. Apart from that, the front visor slides in and out to match your eye's position.
- With all such features, the best PS5 games on this headset feel as immersive as you play on a screen, unlike what you usually encounter in standalone VR gaming.
