The new resolution is also confirmed to be near 4K, offering each eye 2000 x 2040 resolution. Nishino confirmed that the new PlayStation VR screen features approximately 110°, the current industry standard. Sony has confirmed an increased field of view with previous predictions placing it anywhere from 10-20° of added length. (Image credit: Electronic Arts Inc.) What new features will the PSVR 2 headset have? Even with increased screen resolution, haptic feedback, and increased processing, Sony would probably hesitate to set the price point drastically higher than the original. While the disc version is finally running at a profit, the PSVR 2 will likely run at a loss when initially launched. Most hardware makes a loss upon launch, turning a profit later with additional hardware, software, and subscription sales making up the costs. This was the price for the version without the PlayStation Camera necessary to use PSVR which retailed separately at $60/£50. The original PlayStation VR released at $399/£349. In their announcement on the PlayStation blog, Sony announced that the new PSVR would cost $549.99 or £529.99 if you're in the UK. However, the headset includes the PS5’s haptic feedback, so it’s impressive that they could add a motor and still reduce weight. As Nishino does not reveal any specific details, it is likely only a very small reduction. This pattern is still present in the plastic of the PSVR 2 headset.įans will be pleased to hear that the new headset is slightly slimmer and lighter than Sony’s original headset. Looking closely at the PS5 you can see PlayStation’s iconic symbols in the plastic. There is also a vent installed to prevent a common problem for VR users where sweat gathers on the lens’. The new headset will allow you to adjust the distance between your eyes, which was not available on the original model. There are also changes to player comfort. However, some design elements from its predecessor remain unchanged, such as the way to adjust the headset will remain the same, as well as the placement of the headphone jack. Nishino claims the design has been tested on a variety of head shapes and sizes to ensure maximum comfort. The edges are still flat though, so it can be placed on a surface without fear of it rolling away. As such, the system has a more curved look than its predecessor. In it he explains how the design of the headset was made with the look of the PS5 and controllers in mind. Nishino gave us the first look at the redesigned headset on February 22, 2022. In 2022, many more details were revealed concerning the official specs and design of the system, which we will get into further on. This is a greatly appreciated offering for cable-conscious consumers as five cables were required to set up the original headset. The second announcement was that the new system will connect to the PlayStation 5 via a single wire. This was welcome news as the current PSVR still uses the PlayStation Move controllers that came out during the PlayStation 3’s lifespan. The first is that the new Sony VR will have wholly redesigned controllers which incorporate the unique features from PlayStation 5’s DualSense controller – they have been announced as PlayStation VR2 Sense Controllers. The PS VR headset, PS Camera, DUALSHOCK 4 wireless controller, PS Move controllers and PS VR aim controller are all sold separately from PS5.Nishino conceded two pieces of official information for the improved system in his initial announcement.
