The next generation of PS VR is coming to PS5
Sony has confirmed that a successor to PlayStation VR is coming to PS5 in the near future, and also will “enable the ultimate entertainment experience with impressive leaps in “interactivity†and overall performance.
In an article on the PlayStation Blog, Sony reaffirmed commitment to virtual reality by announcing a new playstation VR 2nd gen system, perhaps called PSVR 2, which is going to improve on the original in every way. The brand new headset is going to support higher resolutions, a broader area of view and much better input and tracking.
It will not be wireless, however. The headset links to the PS5 using just one cord, which continues to be a much more simplified setup than the present PSVR uses. The brand new PlayStation VR headset will include the DualSense wireless controller, however, Sony will launch a dedicated VR controller which is focused on good ergonomics.
The headset will not be launching in 2021, as Sony admits “there’s still a plenty of development underway for our brand new VR systemâ€.
Sony did formally launch a second PSVR headset back in 2017: the CUH-ZVR2 added an HDR pass through, integrated headphones as well as a smaller sized connective cord. However, the true PSVR 2.0 promises to provide a much better jump in specs which might take advantage of the PS5’s better hardware – upping the resolution of its, refresh rate and pixel quality.
