Several features for the upcoming PlayStation VR2 headset have been revealed confirming it’s bringing in some key elements from Meta’s Oculus Quest 2 and Valve’s Index into the console VR space.
One will be See-Through View allowing players the ability to see through the headset while wearing it by pressing a button to deliver a black-and-white real-time image of their surroundings.
You can adjust the play area for VR use, marking out a safe play space free of furniture and other things – and when players get close to the edge of that space, a visual wall appears very akin to the Quest 2’s system.
Hooking up the PS5 camera to a PS VR2 setup can cut out the player in the headset and place them in the corner of a broadcast stream, letting players see real-time reactions to games.
A price and release date for the system is expected to be announced soon.
