I really hope we see more hybrid games like GT7 and Resident Evil Village. Those legitimately look like the future "graphically" and I'm all for it. FarCry 7 VR? A new open world RPG VR? Yes please!
I have RE Village already for my PC, which is way more powerful than my PS5 (5800x and 6900XT) and can display 5120 * 1440 ultrawide, but as soon as I found out this game works 100% on PSVR2 I snatched it off PSN on sale for $20. I don't mind paying again, at least at a discount price, when you can play all the way through in VR. I'd love to see more developers make games with this VR option.
as a pcvr user, I hope it succeeds so we see more high end games. the quest 2 caused a step backwards in terms of gaming experiences because of the mobile processor and caused a lot of pc vr games to be downgraded for crossplay
I agree . At first I thought the quest was way better than the psvr1 and it did look better but it never had any wow moments like rush of blood or res evil on tge psvr1. Quest just never had enough power
I agree somewhat. I can get behind the part where Vr games have been downgraded. However, for what might have been lost in quality. Getting rid of the setup needed for Vr where you have multiple cameras setup and required a huge open space was a big win imo . I still play games like Half Life Alyx, retro arcade Neon, project cars 2, dirt rally etc with a single cable and the quest 2 . I can tell the difference between the portable version and the PC version but the ability to do without the whole setup and also bring VR to others houses outweighs the technical showcase
I agree Quest 2 was the most accessible but power is so horrible. It is sabotaging VR industry but not allowing VR go for better fidelity and graphic. Not to mention some Meta games just completely awful.
Man I hope this drives the development of some actual full length VR games. I love VR and its such an amazing and immersive experience, but there's so little content to engage with on it.
What's full length? Horizon is 6hrs, I heard GT7 is the straight whole game from ps5 just in vr, it's just a racer but eh. Some reg games are only 4hrs? I do wish they make an vr rpg
Yeah, totally agree. So far the best full-length VR experiences I've seen are Lone Echo 1 & 2, Half Life: Alyx, Asgard's Wrath, Skyrim VR, RE7, TWD: Saints & Sinners and I can't really think of anything else besides the few ports like No Man's Sky, Fallout VR and Borderlands 2. That's a pretty lackluster lineup of full-length games for a medium that has been around for more than 5 years now. I mean there are some other good experiences to be had like The Forest, Invisible Hours, Moss, etc, but there really are a VERY limited amount of full size AAA games out there. I have my fingers crossed that Sony will be the ones to change that and help promote VR adoption. I don't see VR becoming fully mainstream until headsets are no larger than a pair of sunglasses though. And by fully mainstream I mean like a solid 20-30% of the population adopting it and purchasing a headset.

honestly the fact that you can just play and watch 2D content on a giant virtual 4K HDR 120hz screen does a lot for me, since the headset costs a few hundred bucks less than a tv like that would.
I jumped in for GT7. I've got the whole triple screen motion rig racing setup for PC, so I fully expect Sony to announce GT7 for PC the day after this thing is delivered haha
@@BLACKxOPxPRExTARGET Relax dude, completely unnecessary response. It's awesome but most games at launch are using it for very basic features like menu selection. He's saying in the future games will get a lot more creative and get a lot of use out of it
@@BLACKxOPxPRExTARGET just like touchpad, or the sixaxis, or even adaptive triggers. Sony has a long history of releasing hardware then not fully supporting it.
seems decent. if you've never tried vr (or only shitty) then my guess is youll be "blown away" the first time you try it. After a while, it's not as great, but I haven't tried psvr2 obviously and it should be better than reverb g2. Plus, considering it's sony, hopefully it's well optimized. Don't expect it to look as good as on flat screen though obviously, we need 8k/12k in vr for that xd.
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j seems to be the consensus that the picture quality is very good as it is oled 4k for each eye. But for real, one has try to really see it.
@@nongmaithemavinash3977 it has eye tracking and well implemented fov eyetracking helps a ton, but still 4k in vr is little compared to even a 1440p screen, way less pixel density. also sadly the fov isnt that high.
ACG, Ive watched your videos for a while now. Im sure you’ll never see this, but I truly appreciate your insight and way of thinking. I think you have a “truthiness” in your work that many have forgotten to strive for. It has not gone unnoticed. Keep doing what you’re doing brother ;-)
Resident evil village VR is my favorite by a mile so far. Played the base version but still find a whole new level of tension in the vr version. Graphics are what I expect from an expensive product like PSVR2 and look great, controls are smooth, inventory is well thought out as you have to actually open your jacket to pull out the flashlight inside, and the combat actually feels like VR combat and lets you interact with enemies in new ways. I was in love as soon as i just pointed my flashlight up into the trees of the dark woods and saw snow falling down and the light fading up into the branches of the trees that seemed to go on forever. We all know how tense resident evil can be at first on a tv, in a dark room, alone, and with a headset but WOW.
VR still might have some development and waiting ahead of it, but my experiences with it showed me that it absolutely is an experience that has to be a big part of our future tech-wise, one way or another. There's just no way of getting that sort of an experience, it is indeed unique. Could it be better? Yes, and it will be, and it will need to be before it's reaching its full audience and potential.
First VR system for me, preordered it. Cannot wait to play some RE8 and GT7. Also grabbed some anti-motion sickness stuff like a patch, a wrist band, and some Dramamine.
Take breaks as soon as you feel uncomfortable. Like the very second. Or be crazy and give yourself insane motion sickness by powering through it for 3 or 4 back to back multi hour play sessions. Either way both ways will get you VR legs
@@Xweapon9099 I can't recommend powering through at least. I was stubborn and gave myself such bad nausea for a few times it made me hesitant to even pick it up again :S But results may vary..
take it slow and you will eventally build up your "VR legs" and have no motion sickness at all, just remember to stop as soon as you feel a bit dizzy and rest for 30-60 minutes
Yes, don't listen to people saying power through it. When you start feeling "off" just take a break and come back later. Powering through will make it take longer to adapt because you'll have a physiologically negative response to it.
I was wondering how playing normal non-vr games would work out. Having VRR for PSVR 2 would've been awesome. But, the ability to play 120hz games on this is still great to hear. Here's hoping that Sony can get Half-Life: Alyx on there sooner than later. I've also read that some devs are working to port og PSVR games over to PSVR 2.
Love your videos, and I've never purchased a VR system, but this new PSVR2 really has my attention. PS has really stepped up with their new console, and I would imagine their new VR will take the lead in virtual competence.
It's nice to know that you can play regular games with the headset that should be pretty immersive. Is there any creative apps kinda like the paint/sculpting on the quest 2? Also I haven't seen anybody mention using it with glasses. Have you by chance had anyone test it with larger glasses? Also I know sony is only selling on their official store, is there any word on retailers carrying it? It'll be easier on the pocket to use a target red card or best buy card for 6 months 0 interest.
TY for the review, I actually got to try it out for about 4 hours and it's pretty cool compared to my PSVR1. Gran Turismo 7 was phenomenal, you become one with the car you are driving. Also did NMS and as soon as I started the intro ,it was like whoa- this is just gorgeous, the planets were so close it felt like I could touch them and the experience with the PSVR2 is way more immersive for the player. In NMS you get to open up the cockpit of your ship, certain motions will have you doing certain things. I also wear glasses and had no issue at all and my prescriotion is pretty high, pretty much blind when I take them off. The only thing stopping me at the moment is the $819.00 price Canadian. I just can't justify it yet until, like you stated- we'll have to see what new games are slated for release in the future. Tx again Sir.
i’ve had the quest 2 for a few months and it’s really showed me how fun VR is, hoping my pre order gets here on day 1 i’m excited to check out some of the stuff i couldn’t on quest 2 💯
@@CanImakeamilliondollars lmao your asking the guy that has a ps5, series x, oled switch, and and a couple oled tvs, i prolly shouldn’t..but imma spend it on gaming 😂 sooner or later i’ll build a pc i just wanna read up more on where to start 😅
@@Hollobaby1231 I'm the same my dude...I have a quest 2. While I enjoy it, vr is still niche for me at least. My ps5 and series x win out for playtime 99% of the time...just like the laziness of a controller and TV.
How does the headset fit with glasses, I wonder? My only problem with the first VR was that the glass of the VR lenses would rub my glasses lenses. Also wondering about the eye-tracking with glasses...
The wheel that moves the headset closer/further from your face makes wearing glasses a non issue. And no issues with eye tracking with glasses on, i don’t have this but i have a Qpro with the same features.
Potentially worth getting if one already has a quest 2? I'm just curious is Playstations catalog is enough to warrant a switch. Plus I get pretty bad motion sickness on my quest, and if PSVR2 has settings to help alleviate that, that may be a selling point
I really wish I could get this for the kids and I.. but at that price point I think we will just stick with our quest 2.... I tried getting my dongle sent by Sony for our psvr to work with the PS5 and they never sent it. So that things just been collecting dust sadly. Maybe one day. Loved the review man your always my go to for pretty much all things gaming. Keep up the lord's work lol.
I’ve almost pulled the trigger on this one so many times. I just can’t see myself using it much though, and still want to wait and see how the game catalogue pans out and how well it performs post release with a wide number of end users. If they could get Half Life Alyx that may be a system seller for me though.
Easiest pre order I've made...been playing games a long time and finally ready to jump in to a new experience,still enjoy flat games but they don't hold my attention as much so hopefully this will add to it
It’s hard to state to someone who hasn’t used VR how revolutionary it is not only as a concept but in practice, it SHOULD be a mainstay for every home but nobody will buy one unless it’s readily available to test, bring back game store demos
@@danbooke2001 you never needed to buy some shoes that sell out quickly or stealth drop, or a ps5 or series x at launch, or any hot commodity like collectibles or cards. Twitter is elite for users that send notifications for those things. So while you may not see a use for something plenty of others do.
I have VR on a PC and the only game that came close to being revolutionary was Half Life Alyx, which wont be on PSVR2. I am very sceptical PSVR2 will be groundbreaking giving how limited the PS5 GPU already is. Sony will need to push out a MASSIVE amount of exclusives that they fund out of their own pockets to make the insane price of the headset (600 Euro in Europe, more than the PS5 and even 20% more than the Series X console just for a VR Headset you need the Console for aswell). Absolutely no one outside of hardcore fans should buy this at that price at release and instead wait 2 years to see how the gaming library for PSVR2 evolves, since you cant use the Headset for PCVR either. Sony made it almost impossible to mod the Headset for PC use apparently.
I don’t know where you live, but in the US someone can buy it to demo it and just return it within usually 7-14 days for your money back. Just go to a Best Buy or Walmart.
Really looking forward to eventually getting this, had the pre-order going but had to cancel due to a major car repair. Seems like they hit most things on the nail though, and great to see a reliable review as always. The big games like resident evil village and GT 7 seem like they will be fun and hopefully, this is the start of a big venture for sony so we keep getting good games and support!
I pre-ordered primarily for GT7 since I have a pretty decent racing rig. I rarely use my Reverb G2, just because it's not very user friendly getting set up and actually playing IMO. I love it once I get going, so ease of use is really high on my list, sounds like this might be a winner! Maybe Sony will ship early....
550$ for sim Racing fans is actually not that big since we are used to spending even 1000$ on Sim rigs, so I expect a lot of GT7 fans getting this just for one game alone
I’m definitely interested, it’s been a long time since I’ve played the OG VR on Playstation, the price is what will keep me waiting honestly. Also, not very many games that I absolutely need. Great review! Thank you Karak!
I'm considering using confetti poppers when the FedEx guy comes this week 🤔 😅 I'm super excited when I saw the confirmation order come thru today! 4 days kids!!
Honestly I think the comfort argument is just really something to get used to and not an inherent disadvantage of the tech. When I first started playing PC games I got a headache after 1-2 hours. Now I can play a 24 hour marathon without issues. I've also adapted to the feeling of headphones on my head for many hours. Something that just doesn't instantly happen. Obviously I don't have first hand experience but I believe that after 2-3 years of using VR headsets you'd be just as acclimated as using a PC for the first time in your life. We just expect to go into this tech without any change.
I don't think the comfort should ever be a question, as it's debatable beyond reason. What should be questioned is the heafty price, lack of availability, and most important: the ungodly assine decision of restricting it to a single platform, that was already limited to begin with. I swear these people use trailer attachments on their frigging vespa.
@@TheKueiJin the price ain't that hefty for VR. The availability though, yeah it's questionable. But I don't know how you're questioning Playstation VR being exclusive to Playstation, it's not that baffling. Although I really hope they support PC soon.
Thanks for the review ACG! I have always been a big fan of VR having the Valve Index since release. I hope the higher resolution and better price makes more people experience the coolest technology since 3d in my opinion (rest in peace 3d)
You mean the “3D” in 3DTVs and the 3DS, right? Because clearly, unlike a lot of technology fads recently (cough AI art cough), VR would create far more opportunities for 3D/CG artists if the technology ever goes mainstream!
30 games up till end of March and 100 games in progress .I had the 1st set day 1 so naturally I am getting the new one my experience in games like Resi evil 7 /moss/Astro bot unbelievable gaming experiences and can’t wait to see what Sony teams can offer this new headset . Can’t wait for Switchback /Resi evil 8
Thanks for the review! I haven't owned a VR headset before, but PSVR2 is incredibly tempting. I hope it continues to have game support for a while, but there are a decent number in the launch window that interest me.
I've been watching so many reviews and previews and information videos on the PSVR2 but I didn't decide to preorder until I watched your review. I hope Sony is paying attention.
After owning the first PSVR and comparing to the quest 2, wireless is a true game changer, despite the lower spec power. We convinced about 5 of our friends to get the quest 2, but I doubt I’ll be able to do the same for PSVR2. Multiplayer with friends makes the VR experience so much better. I don’t see that happening with PSVR2 for me
I don't have a PS5 or a desire to get a PSVR2, but it's good to see they're setting up a bigger foundation for developers to have an audience for VR games going forward.
@@captainthunderbolt7541 PSVR 1 was disappointing and limited straight out the bat. Of course they're going to move on from it, were in a New console generation!
@@aussieknuckles It would have been nice if PSVR2 was developed in such a way as to allow PSVR1 to also be compatible with the games. That way the people who bought into PSVR1 don't feel burned.
@@captainthunderbolt7541 they really shouldn't feel burnt as it release many years ago, and as for new purchases of the PSVR1, well there's a ton of games at discounted prices to play. I know what you're saying, but I'm glad Sony always move forward and innovate with their tech. It comes down to the developer, and if they want to port a PSVR 1 game to PSVR 2 with modern controls. To keep the games cross compatible would have ruined the chance of having better controls and tracking, as psvr1 has really outdated movement and tracking.
Compared to competitors, it's actually a cheap alternative. The only thing holding me back of buying it are games. I need more games or, at the very least, more announcements before jumping into a VR headset that it's exclusive to a closed system like playstation.
Ya if you can look at the psvr1 and what it offered and the price vs the psvr2 bundle it’s not that much more expensive. Take a look at good vr on pc and you can’t touch this experience for under half. Google any vr comparison and the quest 2 is bottom the worst for resolution and graphics.
To be fair, my occulus quest 2 has been incredible since it not only lets me game wirelessly but also allows me to access all of my steam games too, for a way cheaper price. The only real upgrades from my quest2 that psvr2 gives me are the graphics, comfort (maybe), and exclusive titles
9:30 You mean ghosting and yes this is a result of games being 60fps and using reprojection to achieve 120fps head movement. This is completely normal and happens on PCVR aswell when reprojection is used. The other alternative is running games at 120fps native but that requires you reduce graphics. Some games are native and some use reprojection so that's why it only happens in some games so that's normal.
60 dollars more expensive than the console itself. The same console that barely has any regular exclusives has even less VR titles. Ill stick with my PS5 digital, Quest 2 and PC. What a joke.
Thanks for the review, thorough as always! Now that the headset is out to the public, many people (myself included) have issues with the controllers not registering key presses or tracking. Specifically in Horizon but also in other games. There's a bunch of complaints about this on Reddit and I'm hoping this can be fixed with a firmware update.
Best review of a VR set, bar none. Thanks for the video. I'm so close to buying this set. But I'd like to see more games. Also, as these VR sets sell, I'm pretty sure a ver 2.0 won't be that far behind. After all, 1st time buyers are the beta testers. So a few more games, a ver 2.0 and I think I'll buy the VR set.
As usual, extremely detailed review, so far better than DF... Will watch NXG after... Great Job mate! I think even with those tracking problems and smearing i will enjoy it very much, GT7 and the 2D games usability is quite a feature to me. Please would like to know how it is to play rocket league with it. 120 hrtz oled display with supoort for head movement instead of using the right stick would be something really cool, if they add 3d to the game it will easily be far better to know the distance between the objects in the field.
How is it for fogging up? I’m forced to wear glasses I know what the first PS VR it was pretty bad. I had also tried some anti-fog, but nothing really worked. Did they put a fan anywhere inside to help with that?
Yes, you can use Pulse 3d headset with PSVR2. I have seen PSVR2 test a couple of months ago and seen people using bot of them together with no issues .
For VR, hell gaming in general cost/reward ratio is just staggeringly not worth it anymore. Here in the UK I spent £480 on a console. Games are now £60-£70 a pop. Then you need the monitor/TV to match it. Then monthly subscriptions for any online play etc... The PC world is no better, that's gone loco, utterly batshit...
I - like - the idea of VR, however... It's the process of actually 'doing' it that I tend to find problems with. Generally, when I play games it's a little sparadic. I'm often doing a multilpul of things at once, so committing solo to playing/doing one single thing, is often a bit of a ask. I think VR is only really viable, if the process itself becomes less obstructive.
How is playing flatscreen games with the PSVR2? To what display could you compare the quality when using that mode inside the PSVR2? Is it like looking at a Full HD Screen, blurrier or sharper or something like this?
The problem with this is I won't buy this device unless I can try it out. And unless a friend buys one, I can't see that happening. I've never tried VR, and am not prepared to drop so much on it without knowing whether I will truly love it.
That why I bought OG psvr pieces used for sale. Quite a few psvr games you only need a dual sense 4 controller. Eventually you'll want the wands, but I waited for those on sale and got them for 15 bucks each at GameStop.
Well that's the problem with all VR headsets you can't experience it from a video review. It's really a piece of hardware you need to see for yourself.
Did you ever find out the reasons behind the delays of movement? You're describing exactly the issue that I have and I haven't heard of it from any others
Agreed 100%. Nice review ACG! Also yea, I can't wait for the future of PSVR2 and what Sony will bring to this device. So far that I've played, I had fun with Horizon CoTM. A bit tiring tho haha
Suggestion (if you're looking for any): For me it's been nearly a year since I bought my headset and although I dont think it'll replace my flatscreen tv anytime soon it certainly takes up the largest percentage of my gaming time. And I for one would love to see you review your psvr2 to-date: Your thoughts, games you could recommend, features you like/disliked, how it could be better etc. Just a thought 😉
I don't know, I already own the original PSVR that didn't really manage to live up to expectations given how they never even bothered releasing actual PSVR controllers and I also own a Steam Index or whatever their VR thingy is called which was ALOT better but also still has the problem of a severe lack of actually good games, Alyx or whatever that HL VR game was called felt like the first actual VR game and while other titles are absolutely enjoyable something like HHH or a Blade & Sorcery simply just feels like demo versions of real games... So yeah maybe atleast the PSVR2 will revolutionise the market and force them to bring actually good titles, but than again exactly that was everyone's hope for the PSVR and it didn't do that either
Awesome review! I pre-ordered but had to cancel as some medical bills came in. Very excited for the PSVR2 and I hope to be able to buy it in the future.
This will 100% come down to games. However, I still think they are missing a big market with not letting it be PC compatible. People aren't going to buy a PS5 for VR. They're going to get PSVR BECAUSE they have a PS5. But, making it compatible with PC, some PC users will also pick it up. Plus, more incentive for those that were on the fence anyway.
Yeah I’ve seen reviews for horizon saying it’s more tech demo than game. And everything else is also on other headsets and marketplaces. So unless they release at least 6 major titles that people are saying must be played and are the future of vr. I just can’t do it. The novelty of VR wears of quick. Half life alyx after playing isn’t worth buying into vr. My problem is if the horizon game isn’t an OMG title from one of their bigger devs that has me worried. Plus I played RE7 on psvr and yeah it’s fun but RE8 isn’t gonna make me want to get this. We will see but I still say we are a decade or more away from VR being on a must get scale.
But how much does PSVR2 compatible PC cost? I'm of mind to say most gamers DON'T have a PC comparable to a PS5 so the same dilemma is kinda present on that platform as well
So I have to put the dongle for my headset in the front of the PS5 because it will go quiet for seconds at a time if I connect the dongle in the back. Does the vr plug into the back? I have the H9 headset so I'm definitely not willing to downgrade to crappy earbuds
I can't decide if I want this headset yet. I do want it, but I don't think there are enough games I'm interested in yet. For now, I'll probably just stick with my Quest 2 for VR. But I'll definitely be keeping an eye in this one.
The lack of software for it makes it not worth it for me yet, but it's a really cool piece of hardware. The lack of PC support hurts it a lot for me too.
This looks like a great addition to the VR world. Thanks for the great review! I don't think I'll ever be able to afford this, but I'll continue to keep an eye on the games and price drops. I'll be blunt: I would very much like to be chosen for your PSVR 2 giveaway, and I hope whoever is chosen will enjoy it very much. Thanks again for the review, and keep up the great work!
Reaally bummed out about the controller tracking issues. That + occasional motion sickness + hassle of setting up were my reasons that made me stop playing and the controller issues were genuinely obnoxious. In the beginning excitement it didn't matter as much but once getting used to it all, fighting with your controller was just annoying. Would love to get it but since I don't know if my motion sickness will become an issue again, I guess I should wait for some sort of a pricedrop possibly...
Controller tracking issues are nothing like PSVR1. It's just the normal limitation of being outside the cameras FoV it's still light years ahead of PSVR1 tracking.
18:36 is somewhat concerning to me. Are there only these 3 presets in call of the mountain? It's been standard in VR games to allow users to select these on a setting by setting basis. Just look at half life: Alyx as the gold standard. I'm a VR "veteran" and absolutely want the fast movement speed and no vignetting, but I (and many others) dislike and get nauseous specifically from smooth rotation, but here I'd have to be forced to pick an unsatisfactory preset. I'm very optimistic about PSVR2. It looks like a great piece of hardware, but with VR, individual perception and accessibility settings are incredibly important and this seems like Sony is missing a fundamental aspect of that. Hopefully if brought up enough this is something they can patch.
I really hope we see more hybrid games like GT7 and Resident Evil Village. Those legitimately look like the future "graphically" and I'm all for it. FarCry 7 VR? A new open world RPG VR? Yes please!
GT7 is not a hybrid game. It was developed from scratch for VR

It will bro you know PlayStation does
honestly the fact that you can just play and watch 2D content on a giant virtual 4K HDR 120hz screen does a lot for me, since the headset costs a few hundred bucks less than a tv like that would.
Gran Turismo 7 was the game that made me get it, but you’re right. Having only 2 big exclusives at launch isn’t going to draw a lot of people in
I want this for gt7. I don’t have wheel/pedals or racing seat but having all of that is the goal.
I already have all that so its a no brainer for me
I jumped in for GT7. I've got the whole triple screen motion rig racing setup for PC, so I fully expect Sony to announce GT7 for PC the day after this thing is delivered haha
@@DontCallMeScooterrr not gonna happen buddy
@@EazyDuz18 Riiiight. I almost missed your comment, I was busy playing Returnal on my PC
@@DontCallMeScooterrr Oh that game that came out like 3 years ago for PS5? Enjoy my sloppy seconds
Eye tracking is still new for VR in general but I feel like it will be a great feature in the future
its going to be in most the games at launch so wtf are you even talking about?
@@BLACKxOPxPRExTARGET Relax dude, completely unnecessary response. It's awesome but most games at launch are using it for very basic features like menu selection. He's saying in the future games will get a lot more creative and get a lot of use out of it
@@Jdb63 Right? Dude needs to chill out lmao. So weird
@@BLACKxOPxPRExTARGET I remember when they announced the ps4 controller with the touch pad and most games used it at launch too
@@BLACKxOPxPRExTARGET just like touchpad, or the sixaxis, or even adaptive triggers. Sony has a long history of releasing hardware then not fully supporting it.
I've never owned a VR headset. If this one is good, I may order it.
seems decent.
if you've never tried vr (or only shitty) then my guess is youll be "blown away" the first time you try it. After a while, it's not as great, but I haven't tried psvr2 obviously and it should be better than reverb g2.
Plus, considering it's sony, hopefully it's well optimized. Don't expect it to look as good as on flat screen though obviously, we need 8k/12k in vr for that xd.
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j seems to be the consensus that the picture quality is very good as it is oled 4k for each eye. But for real, one has try to really see it.
@@nongmaithemavinash3977 it has eye tracking and well implemented fov eyetracking helps a ton, but still 4k in vr is little compared to even a 1440p screen, way less pixel density.
also sadly the fov isnt that high.
Order it now then. 👍
Welcome to the Family, son.
ACG, Ive watched your videos for a while now. Im sure you’ll never see this, but I truly appreciate your insight and way of thinking. I think you have a “truthiness” in your work that many have forgotten to strive for. It has not gone unnoticed. Keep doing what you’re doing brother ;-)
Killer review man. I appreciate how much relevant testing you do to tell us what the entire experience is like. Keep it up!
Resident evil village VR is my favorite by a mile so far. Played the base version but still find a whole new level of tension in the vr version. Graphics are what I expect from an expensive product like PSVR2 and look great, controls are smooth, inventory is well thought out as you have to actually open your jacket to pull out the flashlight inside, and the combat actually feels like VR combat and lets you interact with enemies in new ways. I was in love as soon as i just pointed my flashlight up into the trees of the dark woods and saw snow falling down and the light fading up into the branches of the trees that seemed to go on forever. We all know how tense resident evil can be at first on a tv, in a dark room, alone, and with a headset but WOW.
Itd be kinda cool to see ACG start doing VR game reviews.
He does the big ones like half life alyx, the walking dead saints and sinners etc etc.
VR still might have some development and waiting ahead of it, but my experiences with it showed me that it absolutely is an experience that has to be a big part of our future tech-wise, one way or another. There's just no way of getting that sort of an experience, it is indeed unique. Could it be better? Yes, and it will be, and it will need to be before it's reaching its full audience and potential.
The problem is if people don't buy the early versions..no company will keep working on the tech for new headsets.
This is a must buy. Never seen anything that cheap for those specs
First VR system for me, preordered it. Cannot wait to play some RE8 and GT7. Also grabbed some anti-motion sickness stuff like a patch, a wrist band, and some Dramamine.
Take breaks as soon as you feel uncomfortable. Like the very second.
Or be crazy and give yourself insane motion sickness by powering through it for 3 or 4 back to back multi hour play sessions.
Either way both ways will get you VR legs
@@Xweapon9099 I can't recommend powering through at least. I was stubborn and gave myself such bad nausea for a few times it made me hesitant to even pick it up again :S But results may vary..
Yeah motion sickness feels really bad, I'd avoid it and take it slow if you're feeling off.
take it slow and you will eventally build up your "VR legs" and have no motion sickness at all, just remember to stop as soon as you feel a bit dizzy and rest for 30-60 minutes
Yes, don't listen to people saying power through it. When you start feeling "off" just take a break and come back later. Powering through will make it take longer to adapt because you'll have a physiologically negative response to it.
I was wondering how playing normal non-vr games would work out. Having VRR for PSVR 2 would've been awesome. But, the ability to play 120hz games on this is still great to hear.
Here's hoping that Sony can get Half-Life: Alyx on there sooner than later. I've also read that some devs are working to port og PSVR games over to PSVR 2.
I hope so cuz games like Blood & Truth, RE7 and Invisible Hours were excellent
Love your videos, and I've never purchased a VR system, but this new PSVR2 really has my attention. PS has really stepped up with their new console, and I would imagine their new VR will take the lead in virtual competence.
It's nice to know that you can play regular games with the headset that should be pretty immersive. Is there any creative apps kinda like the paint/sculpting on the quest 2?
Also I haven't seen anybody mention using it with glasses. Have you by chance had anyone test it with larger glasses?
Also I know sony is only selling on their official store, is there any word on retailers carrying it? It'll be easier on the pocket to use a target red card or best buy card for 6 months 0 interest.
Sony sells them at retailers everywhere but America. Not sure why they chose to not offer this is America.
TY for the review, I actually got to try it out for about 4 hours and it's pretty cool compared to my PSVR1. Gran Turismo 7 was phenomenal, you become one with the car you are driving. Also did NMS and as soon as I started the intro ,it was like whoa- this is just gorgeous, the planets were so close it felt like I could touch them and the experience with the PSVR2 is way more immersive for the player. In NMS you get to open up the cockpit of your ship, certain motions will have you doing certain things. I also wear glasses and had no issue at all and my prescriotion is pretty high, pretty much blind when I take them off. The only thing stopping me at the moment is the $819.00 price Canadian. I just can't justify it yet until, like you stated- we'll have to see what new games are slated for release in the future. Tx again Sir.
Always watch your reviews. You are always the first person i go to to view reviews. This review convinced me to get a PSVR2. Thank you ACG
4:17 i want to add that because of the bracelet design instead of setting the controller down you could just pull it up your arm to free up your hand.
It’s crazy Sony didn’t bring back PlayStation Home for VR
I'm really looking forward to the PSVR2, it's going to be such a great experience that has never been seen before. i'm ready for it
i’ve had the quest 2 for a few months and it’s really showed me how fun VR is, hoping my pre order gets here on day 1 i’m excited to check out some of the stuff i couldn’t on quest 2 💯
Dang, how much vr do you need boy 🤣🤣🤣
@@CanImakeamilliondollars lmao your asking the guy that has a ps5, series x, oled switch, and and a couple oled tvs, i prolly shouldn’t..but imma spend it on gaming 😂 sooner or later i’ll build a pc i just wanna read up more on where to start 😅
@@Hollobaby1231 I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy lol
@@Hollobaby1231 I'm the same my dude...I have a quest 2. While I enjoy it, vr is still niche for me at least. My ps5 and series x win out for playtime 99% of the time...just like the laziness of a controller and TV.
@@Hollobaby1231 when you get a PC definitely try out the Quest on it. You can do full PCVR wirelessly with Airlink and it's a great experience.
How does the headset fit with glasses, I wonder? My only problem with the first VR was that the glass of the VR lenses would rub my glasses lenses. Also wondering about the eye-tracking with glasses...
The wheel that moves the headset closer/further from your face makes wearing glasses a non issue. And no issues with eye tracking with glasses on, i don’t have this but i have a Qpro with the same features.
Can you please say something about cinematic mode? Is it good ti play regular games? Thanks for the video!
Potentially worth getting if one already has a quest 2? I'm just curious is Playstations catalog is enough to warrant a switch. Plus I get pretty bad motion sickness on my quest, and if PSVR2 has settings to help alleviate that, that may be a selling point
Thanks!
I really wish I could get this for the kids and I.. but at that price point I think we will just stick with our quest 2.... I tried getting my dongle sent by Sony for our psvr to work with the PS5 and they never sent it. So that things just been collecting dust sadly. Maybe one day.
Loved the review man your always my go to for pretty much all things gaming. Keep up the lord's work lol.
I’ve almost pulled the trigger on this one so many times. I just can’t see myself using it much though, and still want to wait and see how the game catalogue pans out and how well it performs post release with a wide number of end users. If they could get Half Life Alyx that may be a system seller for me though.
I’m in the same boat.
Honestly excited about this. As long as they keep coming out with good first party games to support it, I think it'll do well compared to other units.
Easiest pre order I've made...been playing games a long time and finally ready to jump in to a new experience,still enjoy flat games but they don't hold my attention as much so hopefully this will add to it
It’s hard to state to someone who hasn’t used VR how revolutionary it is not only as a concept but in practice, it SHOULD be a mainstay for every home but nobody will buy one unless it’s readily available to test, bring back game store demos
I'll never adopt VR in all honesty. I just have zero interest in it, just like Twitter or Discord - I have absolutely no need for them.
@@danbooke2001 ok 👍
@@danbooke2001 you never needed to buy some shoes that sell out quickly or stealth drop, or a ps5 or series x at launch, or any hot commodity like collectibles or cards. Twitter is elite for users that send notifications for those things. So while you may not see a use for something plenty of others do.
I have VR on a PC and the only game that came close to being revolutionary was Half Life Alyx, which wont be on PSVR2. I am very sceptical PSVR2 will be groundbreaking giving how limited the PS5 GPU already is. Sony will need to push out a MASSIVE amount of exclusives that they fund out of their own pockets to make the insane price of the headset (600 Euro in Europe, more than the PS5 and even 20% more than the Series X console just for a VR Headset you need the Console for aswell). Absolutely no one outside of hardcore fans should buy this at that price at release and instead wait 2 years to see how the gaming library for PSVR2 evolves, since you cant use the Headset for PCVR either. Sony made it almost impossible to mod the Headset for PC use apparently.
I don’t know where you live, but in the US someone can buy it to demo it and just return it within usually 7-14 days for your money back. Just go to a Best Buy or Walmart.
I haven’t played any VR since the first PSVR so I’m very curious about the improvements!!!
I was always hesitant about VR... This one might be the one for me once we get more games
On the tested review they also tried three different light settings and said the tracking was perfect. Could you have a faulty controller?
That eye tracking sounds amazing honestly like that speed so you can get right back into the game sounds amazing
Really looking forward to eventually getting this, had the pre-order going but had to cancel due to a major car repair. Seems like they hit most things on the nail though, and great to see a reliable review as always. The big games like resident evil village and GT 7 seem like they will be fun and hopefully, this is the start of a big venture for sony so we keep getting good games and support!
I pre-ordered primarily for GT7 since I have a pretty decent racing rig. I rarely use my Reverb G2, just because it's not very user friendly getting set up and actually playing IMO. I love it once I get going, so ease of use is really high on my list, sounds like this might be a winner! Maybe Sony will ship early....
I love the last one, this one sounds so much better. thank you for taking the time to review this!!
Does anyone know what shooter that was @ 11:30?
550$ for sim Racing fans is actually not that big since we are used to spending even 1000$ on Sim rigs, so I expect a lot of GT7 fans getting this just for one game alone
Was thinking that aswell for hardcore people that's nothing.
I’m definitely interested, it’s been a long time since I’ve played the OG VR on Playstation, the price is what will keep me waiting honestly. Also, not very many games that I absolutely need. Great review! Thank you Karak!
Horizon, RE8, GT7, pavlov, the light brigade, kayak. So many games at launch it’s kind of insane. Those are just the ones that look amazing
@@GlaciusDreams They also have Job Simulator coming out, which I’ve got some good memories with 😂
Great review, I think I'm getting into VR with this headset.
I'm considering using confetti poppers when the FedEx guy comes this week 🤔 😅 I'm super excited when I saw the confirmation order come thru today! 4 days kids!!
Honestly I think the comfort argument is just really something to get used to and not an inherent disadvantage of the tech.
When I first started playing PC games I got a headache after 1-2 hours. Now I can play a 24 hour marathon without issues. I've also adapted to the feeling of headphones on my head for many hours. Something that just doesn't instantly happen.
Obviously I don't have first hand experience but I believe that after 2-3 years of using VR headsets you'd be just as acclimated as using a PC for the first time in your life. We just expect to go into this tech without any change.
I don't think the comfort should ever be a question, as it's debatable beyond reason. What should be questioned is the heafty price, lack of availability, and most important: the ungodly assine decision of restricting it to a single platform, that was already limited to begin with.
I swear these people use trailer attachments on their frigging vespa.
@@TheKueiJin the price ain't that hefty for VR. The availability though, yeah it's questionable. But I don't know how you're questioning Playstation VR being exclusive to Playstation, it's not that baffling. Although I really hope they support PC soon.
Thanks for the review ACG! I have always been a big fan of VR having the Valve Index since release. I hope the higher resolution and better price makes more people experience the coolest technology since 3d in my opinion (rest in peace 3d)
You mean the “3D” in 3DTVs and the 3DS, right? Because clearly, unlike a lot of technology fads recently (cough AI art cough), VR would create far more opportunities for 3D/CG artists if the technology ever goes mainstream!
30 games up till end of March and 100 games in progress .I had the 1st set day 1 so naturally I am getting the new one my experience in games like Resi evil 7 /moss/Astro bot unbelievable gaming experiences and can’t wait to see what Sony teams can offer this new headset . Can’t wait for Switchback /Resi evil 8
Thanks for the review! I haven't owned a VR headset before, but PSVR2 is incredibly tempting. I hope it continues to have game support for a while, but there are a decent number in the launch window that interest me.
I've been watching so many reviews and previews and information videos on the PSVR2 but I didn't decide to preorder until I watched your review. I hope Sony is paying attention.
After owning the first PSVR and comparing to the quest 2, wireless is a true game changer, despite the lower spec power. We convinced about 5 of our friends to get the quest 2, but I doubt I’ll be able to do the same for PSVR2.
Multiplayer with friends makes the VR experience so much better. I don’t see that happening with PSVR2 for me
I don't have a PS5 or a desire to get a PSVR2, but it's good to see they're setting up a bigger foundation for developers to have an audience for VR games going forward.
The problem is that they already set up that foundation on the PS4, and then they moved on from it.
@@captainthunderbolt7541 PSVR 1 was disappointing and limited straight out the bat. Of course they're going to move on from it, were in a New console generation!
@@aussieknuckles It would have been nice if PSVR2 was developed in such a way as to allow PSVR1 to also be compatible with the games. That way the people who bought into PSVR1 don't feel burned.
@@captainthunderbolt7541 they really shouldn't feel burnt as it release many years ago, and as for new purchases of the PSVR1, well there's a ton of games at discounted prices to play.
I know what you're saying, but I'm glad Sony always move forward and innovate with their tech. It comes down to the developer, and if they want to port a PSVR 1 game to PSVR 2 with modern controls.
To keep the games cross compatible would have ruined the chance of having better controls and tracking, as psvr1 has really outdated movement and tracking.
If the price wasn’t so steep I’d jump on it for sure!
it's actually a bargain for the tech
Compared to competitors, it's actually a cheap alternative. The only thing holding me back of buying it are games. I need more games or, at the very least, more announcements before jumping into a VR headset that it's exclusive to a closed system like playstation.
Ya if you can look at the psvr1 and what it offered and the price vs the psvr2 bundle it’s not that much more expensive.
Take a look at good vr on pc and you can’t touch this experience for under half.
Google any vr comparison and the quest 2 is bottom the worst for resolution and graphics.
It's a demo machine, the next one might be worth it. But unless developers get on board, it will never be worth it.
To be fair, my occulus quest 2 has been incredible since it not only lets me game wirelessly but also allows me to access all of my steam games too, for a way cheaper price. The only real upgrades from my quest2 that psvr2 gives me are the graphics, comfort (maybe), and exclusive titles
9:30 You mean ghosting and yes this is a result of games being 60fps and using reprojection to achieve 120fps head movement.
This is completely normal and happens on PCVR aswell when reprojection is used. The other alternative is running games at 120fps native but that requires you reduce graphics.
Some games are native and some use reprojection so that's why it only happens in some games so that's normal.
Can't wait. Hopefully more games and gamers would try VR gaming with this.
If they bring half life alyx I’ll buy it in a heart bear.
Nooope. No. Thank. You.
Nope, I get motion sickness too easily
60 dollars more expensive than the console itself. The same console that barely has any regular exclusives has even less VR titles. Ill stick with my PS5 digital, Quest 2 and PC. What a joke.
I doubt it, it’s too expensive I think only hardcore gamers can afford a PS5 and a PSVR2, they had The same issue with the first one
No screen door.. but there's a weave-like structure..
how would that not be a screen door effect? (Genuine question)
@5:25 I heard "adult games" and instantly alt-tabbed to the video, LOL :D
Thanks for the review, thorough as always!
Now that the headset is out to the public, many people (myself included) have issues with the controllers not registering key presses or tracking. Specifically in Horizon but also in other games. There's a bunch of complaints about this on Reddit and I'm hoping this can be fixed with a firmware update.
What’s the fps shooter he’s playing in the background at 11:35?
Best review of a VR set, bar none. Thanks for the video.
I'm so close to buying this set. But I'd like to see more games. Also, as these VR sets sell, I'm pretty sure a ver 2.0 won't be that far behind. After all, 1st time buyers are the beta testers. So a few more games, a ver 2.0 and I think I'll buy the VR set.
The next headset released will be when the PS6 releases. You can rest assured this is the headset that will last the entire generation.
As usual, extremely detailed review, so far better than DF... Will watch NXG after...
Great Job mate! I think even with those tracking problems and smearing i will enjoy it very much, GT7 and the 2D games usability is quite a feature to me. Please would like to know how it is to play rocket league with it. 120 hrtz oled display with supoort for head movement instead of using the right stick would be something really cool, if they add 3d to the game it will easily be far better to know the distance between the objects in the field.
How is it for fogging up? I’m forced to wear glasses I know what the first PS VR it was pretty bad. I had also tried some anti-fog, but nothing really worked. Did they put a fan anywhere inside to help with that?
3D playback in cinema mode? Also what size screen options?
Thank you for the review. And thanks for talking about the ear buds sound quality. Wonder if one can use Pulse 3D headsets for sound?
Yes, you can use Pulse 3d headset with PSVR2. I have seen PSVR2 test a couple of months ago and seen people using bot of them together with no issues .
Anything with a headphone jack or wireless connection to the PS5.
First time getting into VR and preorder is in along with 9 games for it.
Can't wait!
For VR, hell gaming in general cost/reward ratio is just staggeringly not worth it anymore. Here in the UK I spent £480 on a console. Games are now £60-£70 a pop. Then you need the monitor/TV to match it. Then monthly subscriptions for any online play etc... The PC world is no better, that's gone loco, utterly batshit...
GT7 is a system seller for me. Love playing with my Logitech racing wheel. This would complete the setup
I - like - the idea of VR, however... It's the process of actually 'doing' it that I tend to find problems with. Generally, when I play games it's a little sparadic. I'm often doing a multilpul of things at once, so committing solo to playing/doing one single thing, is often a bit of a ask.
I think VR is only really viable, if the process itself becomes less obstructive.
How is playing flatscreen games with the PSVR2? To what display could you compare the quality when using that mode inside the PSVR2? Is it like looking at a Full HD Screen, blurrier or sharper or something like this?
The problem with this is I won't buy this device unless I can try it out. And unless a friend buys one, I can't see that happening. I've never tried VR, and am not prepared to drop so much on it without knowing whether I will truly love it.
That why I bought OG psvr pieces used for sale. Quite a few psvr games you only need a dual sense 4 controller. Eventually you'll want the wands, but I waited for those on sale and got them for 15 bucks each at GameStop.
Some places might have return policies that would allow you to try it?
You always can sell it again if you don't like it.
Well that's the problem with all VR headsets you can't experience it from a video review. It's really a piece of hardware you need to see for yourself.
Hi. What is the name of the vr video that played at the 17:40 mark?
Did you ever find out the reasons behind the delays of movement? You're describing exactly the issue that I have and I haven't heard of it from any others
Agreed 100%. Nice review ACG! Also yea, I can't wait for the future of PSVR2 and what Sony will bring to this device. So far that I've played, I had fun with Horizon CoTM. A bit tiring tho haha
You and me both!
Are you able to use your home theatre for sound instead of the earbuds?
Yes but no because as soon as you turn your head the sound is no longer correct. Home theatre setups depend on you facing forward in one direction.
Gt7, Fanatec and Resident Evil. Felt the damage but it was inevitable. Can’t wait to play next week!
I don't remember if this question is answered in the video. But from VR 1 to VR 2, it is recommended?
Great review as always. Thanks. Glad someone on LTT chat told me about ya.
Suggestion (if you're looking for any): For me it's been nearly a year since I bought my headset and although I dont think it'll replace my flatscreen tv anytime soon it certainly takes up the largest percentage of my gaming time. And I for one would love to see you review your psvr2 to-date: Your thoughts, games you could recommend, features you like/disliked, how it could be better etc. Just a thought 😉
Thanks for the review. I don't intend on getting one, but it was interesting to see what it is capable of and I will keep an eye on it
i hope they can iron out the tracking with software tweaks, that seems to be the only real issue.
"Buy Sony Playstation PSVR2 Review" title sounds like a recommendation video rather than a review and you did an excellent job recommending them.
I can’t wait to try GT7 in a racing seat with a wheel. It should completely change the experience.
This may be the one that finally gets me to try vr.... I'm glad it's reviewing well
I don't know, I already own the original PSVR that didn't really manage to live up to expectations given how they never even bothered releasing actual PSVR controllers and I also own a Steam Index or whatever their VR thingy is called which was ALOT better but also still has the problem of a severe lack of actually good games, Alyx or whatever that HL VR game was called felt like the first actual VR game and while other titles are absolutely enjoyable something like HHH or a Blade & Sorcery simply just feels like demo versions of real games...
So yeah maybe atleast the PSVR2 will revolutionise the market and force them to bring actually good titles, but than again exactly that was everyone's hope for the PSVR and it didn't do that either
Awesome review!
I pre-ordered but had to cancel as some medical bills came in. Very excited for the PSVR2 and I hope to be able to buy it in the future.
This will 100% come down to games. However, I still think they are missing a big market with not letting it be PC compatible. People aren't going to buy a PS5 for VR. They're going to get PSVR BECAUSE they have a PS5. But, making it compatible with PC, some PC users will also pick it up. Plus, more incentive for those that were on the fence anyway.
Yeah I’ve seen reviews for horizon saying it’s more tech demo than game. And everything else is also on other headsets and marketplaces. So unless they release at least 6 major titles that people are saying must be played and are the future of vr. I just can’t do it. The novelty of VR wears of quick. Half life alyx after playing isn’t worth buying into vr. My problem is if the horizon game isn’t an OMG title from one of their bigger devs that has me worried. Plus I played RE7 on psvr and yeah it’s fun but RE8 isn’t gonna make me want to get this. We will see but I still say we are a decade or more away from VR being on a must get scale.
But how much does PSVR2 compatible PC cost? I'm of mind to say most gamers DON'T have a PC comparable to a PS5 so the same dilemma is kinda present on that platform as well
@@sobversion3 that doesn’t matter. You wanna make money? Put it in for the people that can.
How is the motion sickness on this one
We had a quest 2 but sent it back as motion sickness was a bit grim
Does anyone know what game that was at 8:32 and 8:58?
Could I just run the cord up to a hook from my ceiling, and then let it hang down, to basically stimulate a wireless experience?
So I have to put the dongle for my headset in the front of the PS5 because it will go quiet for seconds at a time if I connect the dongle in the back. Does the vr plug into the back? I have the H9 headset so I'm definitely not willing to downgrade to crappy earbuds
I can't decide if I want this headset yet.
I do want it, but I don't think there are enough games I'm interested in yet.
For now, I'll probably just stick with my Quest 2 for VR. But I'll definitely be keeping an eye in this one.
The lack of software for it makes it not worth it for me yet, but it's a really cool piece of hardware. The lack of PC support hurts it a lot for me too.
14:10 That seems strange maybe it's to prevent motion sickness? I feel like that would increase my motion sickness tho.
Can’t wait to get this next week!! I pre ordered 2 weeks ago! 🎉🎉
This looks like a great addition to the VR world. Thanks for the great review! I don't think I'll ever be able to afford this, but I'll continue to keep an eye on the games and price drops. I'll be blunt: I would very much like to be chosen for your PSVR 2 giveaway, and I hope whoever is chosen will enjoy it very much. Thanks again for the review, and keep up the great work!
What's the Star Wars game around 9:45?
Reaally bummed out about the controller tracking issues. That + occasional motion sickness + hassle of setting up were my reasons that made me stop playing and the controller issues were genuinely obnoxious. In the beginning excitement it didn't matter as much but once getting used to it all, fighting with your controller was just annoying.
Would love to get it but since I don't know if my motion sickness will become an issue again, I guess I should wait for some sort of a pricedrop possibly...
Lol a price drop is going to solve the problem of motion sickness?
How in the actual *[FUK]* will a "price drop" decrease your so called "motion sickness" news flash it does not!
Controller tracking issues are nothing like PSVR1. It's just the normal limitation of being outside the cameras FoV it's still light years ahead of PSVR1 tracking.
Appreciate the review, nice to hear. Hopefully this helps push the industry forward. 🤞
18:36 is somewhat concerning to me. Are there only these 3 presets in call of the mountain? It's been standard in VR games to allow users to select these on a setting by setting basis. Just look at half life: Alyx as the gold standard. I'm a VR "veteran" and absolutely want the fast movement speed and no vignetting, but I (and many others) dislike and get nauseous specifically from smooth rotation, but here I'd have to be forced to pick an unsatisfactory preset.
I'm very optimistic about PSVR2. It looks like a great piece of hardware, but with VR, individual perception and accessibility settings are incredibly important and this seems like Sony is missing a fundamental aspect of that. Hopefully if brought up enough this is something they can patch.
I think it's priced just right. It has features only premium PCVR headsets offer
