With the adapter priced at $60 and the headset now back to $550, PlayStation VR2 is now effectively a new $610 PC VR headset.
It’s not quite that simple, though. In the package you’ll find the adapter itself, a built-in USB cable, and a DC power adapter. But what you won’t find is the DisplayPort 1.4 cable you need to connect the adapter to your PC. So if you don’t have one of those lying around, add another $10 or so to the cost.
You’ll also need Bluetooth on your PC to connect the controllers. If your motherboard doesn’t have this built-in and you don’t have a USB or PCI-E Bluetooth adapter, that adds another $15 or so to the cost.
PlayStation VR2 uses fresnel lenses.
That on top of a price of $610 minimum and no PC HDR support to take advantage of the OLED displays, this headset is not for me.
It’s a shame they ended VirtualLink ports.
Quite unfortunate, that the dynamic resolution system is completely unsupported.
Apparently if you manage to get it for 350 + adapter, it’s a pretty good deal, but then the question is whether it’s worth it to buy this, vs a headset that’s specifically designed for pc
