This announcement represents an important step in Sony’s efforts to expand the functionality of PlayStation VR2 beyond PlayStation 5 and attract new buyers, as sales expectations for the goggles have not been met.

PlayStation VR2 is Sony’s next-generation virtual-reality goggles designed for the PS5 console. They offer significant improvements compared to their predecessor: higher resolution OLED lenses, a wider field of view, and a more comfortable design.

Release date and price of the PC adapter

Starting August 7th, players will be able to connect their PlayStation VR2 goggles to PC using the new adapter, allowing users to access the wide library of virtual-reality games on Steam.

To use the VR2 on PC, players will also need a compatible DisplayPort 1.4 cable and a PC that meets the minimum requirements. The adapter will have a price tag of $59.99 in the United States, €59.99 in Europe, and £49.99 in the United Kingdom.

Installing PlayStation VR2 on a PC is simple. Users will connect the virtual-reality headset to their PC using the PS VR2 adapter for PC and a DisplayPort 1.4 cable, and then download the PlayStation VR2 app and the SteamVR app from Steam.

This configuration allows you to customize settings and purchase or acquire free VR games to play through SteamVR. However, some features specifically designed for PS5 will not be available on PC. These include HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and advanced haptic feedback beyond basic vibration.

Despite these limitations, other high-fidelity features such as 4K images, a 110-degree field of view, touch detection, transparent vision, foveated rendering (without eye tracking), and 3D audio will be supported.

To celebrate this announcement, Sony is also offering a discount as part of its Days of Play promotion. Until June 12th, players in some regions will be able to enjoy a 100-euro discount on PlayStation VR2 and PlayStation VR2 Horizon Call of the Mountain Bundle for PS5.
