PlayStation Virtual Headset, also PlayStation VR2, is the latest version of the virtual reality headset series by Sony (NYSE: SONY) and is set to compete with Meta Quest 2. Sony released the first version of its virtual reality headset back in 2016. With the increasing bet for a digital age, it is necessary that companies upgrade to modern technology versions. The headset’s apparatus is old compared to more recent headsets like Meta Quest 2. On the 22nd of February, Sony revealed the PS VR’s latest version offering customers a product that is easy to connect and plays games they already have.
The recent move by Sony shows the continued heat in the VR space. Meta dedicated $10 billion towards the Metaverse in advance to 2023. Meta Quest 2 headset costs $229 and allows users to work and play. Sony VR headset requires a PlayStation to run, while Meta Quest 2 can connect a computer for power-intensive gaming apps. Like the Meta Quest 2, the Sony PlayStation VR2 headset has two controllers for navigation. It also has a lens adjustment dial for matching lens distance between users’ eyes. The new gaming accessory is sleeker than the former version.
Many users of these gaming devices have suggested that they would rather go for Quest 2 than PSVR 1. Ranging from the tracking and picture quality focus to the navigators, PSVR 1 is notably poor. This is because there has been improved technology since its launch in 2016. However, the PSVR 1 exclusive games are excellent, so if those experiences look appealing, then it is adequately valuable.
