Here are our thoughts on Sony's new virtual reality system
Having said that, this a matter of working out your own cost:benefits ratio, and in the case of the PlayStation VR2, the future of those benefits is looking very, very bright. The system will launch with over 30 games available within its first month of release, including VR adventures set within the worlds of Horizon Zero Dawn, Star Wars, Gran Turismo, Tetris, NFL, Resident Evil and The Walking Dead.
As for the headset, maybe the two biggest complaints about virtual reality to date are both magnificently quashed here. Throughout the games we played while reviewing, there was absolutely zero motion sickness. The movements are clean and clear, and never once was there an issue of our brain not aligning with what we were experiencing.
And the weight of the headset is negligible - same with the controllers - so there is never a sense that our line of sight is being pulled downwards by what we're wearing. Looking up and around in all directions is easy, and highly recommended, to check out the absolutely gorgeous sandboxes we've been dropped into.In the end, what we experienced across using the system and the accompanying games does feel like the next evolutionary step in home entertaining.
The PlayStation VR2 is available to purchase from Wednesday, 22 February, with some stores offering pre-orders right now.
