PS VR2 Pre-Orders Now Open in Singapore
You can now pre-order the PlayStation VR2 (PS VR2) via Sony Store Online Singapore.
There are two options available: the standard release, priced at S$869, or the Horizon Call of the Mountain Bundle, priced at S$939.
The standard release comes with the headset itself, the left and right VR2 Sense controllers with attached straps, stereo headphones, three pairs of earpieces and a USB charging cable.
The bundle, meanwhile, comes with everything from the standard release, plus a PlayStation Store voucher code for Horizon Call of the Mountain.
The PS VR 2 is not due until the end of February 2023 onwards, according to the pre-order listings.
The headset is Sony’s second crack at virtual reality (VR) for PlayStation after releasing the PS VR on the PS4 in 2016. The next-generation device touts a number of key upgrades over the original, highlighted by 4K HDR visuals, revamped controllers and eye-tracking capabilities.
For the display, the device houses two OLED panels (one for each eye) that support a resolution of 2000 x 2040 – over four times the resolution of the PS VR. The panels also boast a 110-degree field of view and refresh rates of up to 120Hz.
The new Sense controllers support haptic feedback and adaptive triggers – two key features of the PS5’s Dual Sense controllers.
The headset includes eye-tracking cameras to follow your line of sight when aiming or looking around. It also detects the motion of your eyes to allow foveated rendering, a VR technique that boosts the resolution of where you’re looking while reducing it on the peripheral.
Also worth pointing out: the PS VR2 isn’t a standalone headset like the Oculus Quest 2. You’ll need to connect it to a PS5 for it to be able to play games. So if you don’t have a PS5 yet, you might want to get one first before pre-ordering the PS VR2.
