Here’s everything arriving at, or soon after, the PS VR 2 launch
Sony’s next virtual reality headset is on the horizon, and today the company is locking in what will be playable around its launch. In today’sPlayStation blog, Sony highlights the full launch lineup for the PlayStation VR 2 headset, including a few games newly confirmed for the hardware.
The launch lineup, as Sony lays it out, includes a bevy of titles arriving either on February 22 or within a month after launch. Sony’s tracking more than 30 games to arrive through March, with familiar names likeHorizon,Resident Evil, andGran Turismoon track. Others, likeTetris Effect, were already VR standards, and will need an additional purchase to upgrade to its PS VR 2 version. Others will have free upgrade options, or likeGran Turismo 7, be included with the PS5 version of the game.
Among today’s newly announced titles for PS VR 2 are some neat surprises, too. 2021’s hidden gemBefore Your Eyeswill be making its way to Sony’s VR platform, and is100% worth your time. There’s alsoThe Last Clockwinder, an automation game that uses recording of your own actions to create assembly lines. It seems pretty neat!
Tack on some first-party experiences and, of course, an extremely tall Lady Dimitrescu, and Sony’s launch lineup seems alright. Virtual reality is in a strange place at the moment, with many PC headsets moving towards more premium (and pricier) hardware. Maybe PS VR 2 can split the difference, especially for those who already have a PlayStation 5 in their home.
Here’s the full launch lineup, arriving either at launch or within the window, with some subject to change. PlayStation VR 2 goes live on February 22 for $549.99.
