PSVR 2 specs are still up in the air, but they could be better than we first thought.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
Sonys PSVR 2 headset for PS5 could have even better specs than what weve previously heard, according to Digital Foundry.
In a new episode of Digital Foundry Weekly , host and technology editor Richard Leadbetter said weve seen some leaked [PSVR 2] specs and it looks good, but went on to add that weve seen some other specs which havent been leaked which make it look even better.
Sonys new virtual reality headset specs are still firmly underwraps, but its rumored to boast a higher resolution screen than the Oculus Quest 2 , a dial for lens adjustment, gaze tracking, and a motor within the headset itself
that might be used for haptic feedback. It could also use OLED panels for
each eye as opposed to LCD. Best VR headsets : step into another world PS5 vs PS5 Digital Edition : what's the difference? Best PlayStation VR games
Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Jim Ryan previously told GQ that Sony believes in VR and that specs would be revealed over the course of this year, so we should find out more soon.
The PSVR 2 will let you use the DualSense PS5 controller for games, but will also include its own dedicated VR controllers that include haptic feedback
and finger touch detection. Sony said the new controls enables you to make more natural gestures with your hands during gameplay and they look far more advanced than the PS Move controllers that were used in combination with the original PlayStation VR headset. Analysis: what can we expect from PSVR 2?
Sonys second stab at virtual reality looks like it will deliver a more
premium and high-end experience. The power of the PS5 and dedicated controllers will certainly help, but we still dont know enough about the PSVR 2 headset to determine what it will truly be capable of.
Some may be surprised that Sony is still bothering with VR at all,
considering how the medium hasnt reached widespread adoption yet. However, PSVR was clearly enough of a success for PlayStation that Sony decided it was worth the gamble. And, with Microsoft ignoring virtual reality on Xbox for now, it gives the PS5 an advantage over the competition, especially since it can power VR experiences far above the Nintendo Labo VR Kit on Nintendo
Switch .
In terms of a release date, Sony has previously admitted that theres still a lot of development underway for our new VR system, though a recent report
from Bloomberg suggested it could launch by Christmas 2022.
It's worth noting that if you're still on the fence about VR in general, the original PlayStation VR headset does work on PS5, though you'll need to contact Sony for a free PSVR adaptor . PS5 vs Xbox Series X : the two
