Sony testing their VR2 headset on the PC

Featured Replies

I saw the news yesterday, sounds great !!

But what do you mean with "Sony picks MSFS" ? If they make their headset compatible with PCVR for example by making it OpenXR-compatible, or SteamVR compatible, then it will work with MSFS anyways, right ?

Also I have no idea about the price of the PSVR2, actually 😄 I stopped reading about this headset back when Sony announced it would be restricted to the PS5...

 

Perhaps Sony is reacting to MS's decision to discontinue WMR.  Why not, a 'replacement' HMD purchasing windfall is in the making there.

Price-wise the Quest 3 and the PSVR2 go head-to-head.  PSVR2 uses Fresnel lenses but has 2000×2040 per eye OLED displays, and is tethered by its USB cable. Quest 3 use pancake lenses, has 2,064 x 2,208 per eye LCD displays and can be optionally USB tethered.  Neither have/use DisportPort for video input but instead use a video codec stream for the display input, e.g. a youtube video or what a Bluray disc contains.  That last feature is most likely a deal breaker when I consider a future replacement for my Reverb G2 .

Nope!

This headset is great on the PS5. I'm hoping that Sony picks up Microsoft Flight Simulator (MSFS) as my HP G2 is really pathetic. The quality and immersive experience on the PS5 headset are exceptional. Using it feels almost as thrilling as hitting a jackpot in a casino. If Sony supports MSFS, it will be a game-changer for flight sim enthusiasts like me.
