Sony Slashes PlayStation VR2 to Black Friday Low, Now Cheaper Than Meta Quest 3S and Perfect for PS5 Owners - Kotaku
"Virtual reality transforms gaming from something you watch on a screen into an experience where you're actually inside the game world, and if you own a PS5, the PlayStation VR2 delivers that immersion better than any other console VR system available. Sony's second-generation headset offers a massive leap forward from the original PSRV and it packs cutting-edge technology that makes virtual worlds feel tangible and responsive."
"Eye tracking technology built right into the headset makes gameplay possible that wasn't possible before: It lets games show detail where you're looking while using less processing power in other areas. This foveated rendering method keeps frame rates smooth and visuals clear without making your PS5 send the most detail across the whole field of view at once. Eye tracking not only improves performance, but it also lets you interact with the game in new ways."
"The headset feedback system sends physical sensations directly through the unit itself. For example, you can feel the rumble of an explosion, the tension of a bowstring, or the impact of raindrops through vibrations that go along with the sound and picture. The adaptive triggers and haptic feedback in the VR2 Sense controllers work together with these haptic pulses to make a single sensory package where every action has a physical effect."
PlayStation VR2 enhances PS5 gaming by immersing players directly into virtual environments using upgraded hardware and software. Built-in eye tracking enables foveated rendering that concentrates detail where the player looks, reducing processing demands while maintaining smooth frame rates. Gaze-based interactions allow aiming, menu selection, and event activation simply by looking. Integrated headset haptics combined with VR2 Sense controller adaptive triggers and fine haptic pulses provide tactile feedback for explosions, bowstrings, raindrops, and other in-game sensations. The headset recently dropped from $399 to $299 on Amazon, matching Black Friday pricing and marking a record low for the hardware.
