PlayStation VR2 for PlayStation 5

[gregc]

UploadVR have their impressions here - https://uploadvr.com/playstation-vr2-hands-on-preview/

A couple of image quality niggles, and the lack of onboard audio is a surprising omission to me. Be interesting to see where it lands price wise.

Also saw this guy's video who said the team were tight lipped on GT7

Damn! That's sad. But I hope that new PSVR games will deliver.

It was pretty inevitable, with the controller tracking methods being completely different. Hopefully they release PSVR2 versions of some of the games (likely full price, this is Sony after all) with the new controls.

I'd say that'll be inevitable, especially for some of the more established VR games and franchises (BeatSaber for example).

BeatSaber is now owned by Meta, their main VR competitor, so there’s no guarantee it’ll get a new release on Sony’s machine.

I'd like Wipeout Omega collection made for the new vr set. It would be an instant buy from me.

Ah didn't know that. That's a shame.

I really do hope Star Wars Squadron will be remade for new headset... They did stop supporting it with new patches, but I hope that EA will make an exception here. This is just too good VR title.

Star Wars Tales from the Galaxies Edge is mentioned in the video I posted

I hope so, find it very hard to play that now in flat mode, especially the TIEs.

VR proponents: VR is gonna be the future any day now! Mass adoption is coming soon!!

VR prices: More than the console they’re meant for.

Yeah, no, hard pass.

600€ haha, that's ridiculous. See you in a couple years.

 

[Ande3200]

The price is actully quite gear, the ps4vr was barely cheaper

 

[Tired Tyres]

£530 for the headset and another £40 if you want the dock to charge the controllers.

 

[Fezzik]

"On October 13, 2016, Sony released the PlayStation VR with the price of $399 in the US, €399 in Europe, £349 in the UK"

barely cheaper ?

 

[Samus]

They should have got Kaz Hirai back to announce 599....European Euros.

 

[DivitLad]

Wouldn't buy unless Gt7 is supported at some point.

 

[georgetigra]

Os cheap compared with the other headset I was expecting to cost more!
All i need now a psvr2 upy confirmation from PD ..

 

[FerrariF40]

Maybe PD will surprise us by letting sell us cars only in VR

For PS4VR you also needed to separately buy a camera, and it didn't include the motion controllers. All included it was ~€550. So yeah, barely cheaper. Take into account 6 years of inflation and it's actually more expensive. It only just so happened that a lot of people already owned the camera or controllers.

Main thing for me here is that the game lineup still seems to be lacking a "big one". GT7 support would totally sell me on it. Something akin to Half Life Alyx would also be great. I'm not really convinced yet if Horizon CotM will actually be good.

 

[tekmoe]

When they confirm it works with GT7, I’ll be very interested. Until then, I’m good with my 65” OLED.

 

[LOonIE]

I think, if Sony would offer it as a PC headset aswell, the price would be actually reasonable. But as an addon for a console, thanks but no thanks.

GT7 VR: The Real Used Car Salesman Simulator.

I waited 3 years for a price drop and bundle to get my OG VR (£220, camera and moves included), probably will take at least as long for this one to drop into my price range. Buying any sooner, in this economy, would lead to this:

 

[MagpieRacer]

Wouldn't buy unless Gt7 is supported at some point.

And fully supported at that, not just a separate VR mode.

 

[Yard_Sale]

I’m going to preorder mine the minute it goes live. Worst case scenario is that GT7 for some very unlikely reason doesn’t support VR, and I sell it in 6 months and take a $100 hit

Absolute worst case scenario is GT7 gets announced for VR support sometime around Christmas, and Sony is out of stock for months because of the large influx of preorders for all the other games that will support it

I hope you can beat the scalpers. Preorder invite emails are already going out. Expecting a few listings to pop up on ebay straight away.
