After months and months of Sony drip-feeding gamers new specs and details on the next-generation PlayStation VR headset, the gaming company announced today that the PlayStation VR 2 is set to ship sometime in early 2023. The system is set to release alongside the PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers, which are both used in tandem to give players an immersive gaming experience.

When the PlayStation 5 add-on was first unveiled earlier this year, it was announced to have eye-tracking built in as well as a Six-Axis motion sensing system for head tracking and dual 2000 x 2040 OLED screesn for each eye that have an adjustable 90Hz and 120Hz refresh rate depending on the game along with just one USB-C cable to the console.

Right now only a handful of games have been confirmed for the PlayStation VR2, including (but not limited to) Horizon Call of the Mountain, Resident Evil 8, some parts of the Resident Evil 4 Remake and No Man’s Sky. All PlayStation VR games are set to be back-compatible for the VR2, bringing up a bunch of fan favorites like Beat Saber and the upcoming Among Us VR game to the PS5.
