Starting August 7th, PlayStation VR2 owners will be able to access games on PC, using an adapter.
Players will have access to buy and play Steam’s library, including Half-Life: Alyx, Fallout 4: VR and War Thunder.
To start, players will need to purchase a PlayStation VR2 PC adapter, which will be available at select retailers, along with a commercially available DisplayPort cable (sold separately) that is compatible with DisplayPort 1.4. That, as well as a Steam account and a PC that meets the minimum requirements below:
- Operating system: Windows 10 64-bit / Windows 11 64-bit
Processor. Intel Core i5-7600 / AMD Ryzen 3 3100 (Zen 2 or later architecture is required) - RAM / memory: 8 GB or more
- GPU / graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 or later (Turing or later architecture is required)-NVIDIA RTX series-AMD Radeon RX 5500XT or later / AMD Radeon RX 6500XT or later
(For the best performance, we recommend that you use an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 or later or AMD Radeon RX 6600XT or later graphics card) - DisplayPort: DisplayPort 1.4 (must have a standard DisplayPort or Mini DisplayPort output port)
- USB: Direct connection only
- Bluetooth: Bluetooth 4.0 or later
The adapter will cost $59.99 USD, and will be available at direct.playstation.com.
PS VR2 was designed from the ground up specifically for PS5 – so you’ll notice that some key features, like HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback (other than rumble), are not available when playing on PC. However, other high-fidelity and sensory immersion features of PS VR2 are supported, including 4K visuals (2000 x 2040 per eye), 110-degree field of view, finger touch detection, and see-through view, as well as foveated rendering (without eye tracking) and 3D Audio in supported games.
