Sony is working to add PC support to its PSVR2 headset, it has today declared.
“We’re pleased to share that we are currently testing the ability for PS VR2 players to access additional games on PC to offer even more game variety in addition to the PS VR2 titles available through PS5,” said Sony’s Gillen McAllister as part of a larger blog post.
McAllister continued to say that Sony hopes “to make this support available in 2024, so stay tuned for more updates.”
The post was part of a larger piece that detailed six third-party PSVR2 titles that were in the pipeline; no Sony first-party titles were detailed. Sony’s recently declared that it won’t have any first-party games ready for PS5 — or PSVR2 for that matter — until March 2025. Thankfully, PC support will greatly increase the amount of titles that a player could potentially access with their rather pricey headset.
At the beginning of 2023, Jay called the headset “crazy good” and “crazy expensive” in his review.
“While I really love the VR2 and don’t for a moment regret paying for one at launch, I can’t in good conscience recommend others pony up so much cash at this early stage,” he said. “When an inevitable pre-Christmas price drop happens this year or next — and assuming some well-priced, quality titles are released or make their way on to the PS+ games library — the PSVR2 will become a must buy.”
At the time of writing, you can grab a PSVR2 headset for $879 AUD, or $959 AUD with Horizon Call of the Mountain packed in. A PS5 is also required for play… or soon, a PC.
We’ll keep you informed as new of PC support for the PSVR2 progresses.
