PlayStation VR2: release date, price and more

- The price of the PSVR2 will be 600 euros. In a bundle with the Game Horizon Call of the Mountain you will pay 650 euros.
- There will be a new charging station for the Sense controllers – if you want to buy the accessory, you will pay another 50 Euros.
- The PlayStation VR2 is getting its own headset this time around, which should also make the sound experience even more immersive. The headset also gives feedback via vibration.
- Another technical innovation compared to the first generation of PlayStation VR: The glasses use eye tracking to create better graphics (keyword: foveated rendering). At the same time, eye tracking is also supposed to have an effect in the game, for example when you interact with NPCs or aim a weapon.
