Sony's PSVR 2 PC adapter launches in August
What are some of the key features of the PlayStation VR2 that will not be available when playing on a PC?
The PlayStation VR2 PC adapter allows users to connect their PS VR2 headset to a PC and play SteamVR games. However, some key features of the PS VR2 will not be available when playing on a PC. These features include:
- HDR (High Dynamic Range): This feature enhances the color and contrast of images, providing a more realistic and immersive visual experience.
- Headset Feedback: This refers to the haptic feedback system built into the headset, which provides physical sensations to enhance immersion3.
- Eye Tracking: The PS VR2 has built-in eye tracking technology, which allows the system to track the movement of your eyes and adjust the display accordingly3. This feature will not be available when playing on a PC.
- Adaptive Triggers: The PS VR2 controllers feature adaptive triggers, which can provide varying levels of resistance to simulate different actions and environments3. This feature will not be supported on PC.
- Haptic Feedback (other than rumble): While the PS VR2 controllers can provide a range of haptic feedback on the PS5, only basic rumble feedback will be available when playing on a PC.
Despite these limitations, the PS VR2 PC adapter will still allow users to enjoy high-fidelity and sensory immersion features, such as 4K visuals, a 110-degree field of view, finger touch detection, see-through view, foveated rendering (without eye tracking), and 3D Audio in supported games.
