When PlayStation VR2 launched last year, we were thrilled to introduce PS5 players to a new generation of VR games with innovative gameplay and immersive sensory features. Inspired by our passion to bring gamers even more content options, we’ve been working to enable access to additional games on PC, complementing the diverse PS VR2 games lineup available on PS5. Today, we’re happy to share that we’ll be rolling out this support on August 7.
Players will have access to buy and play Steam’s expansive library of thousands of VR games, including fan favorites like 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 for an estimated retail price of $59.99 / €59.99 / £49.99 at select retailers and direct.playstation.com where available.
Sounds more like a software issue. At least eye-tracking seems likely to come to SteamVR in the nearish future as the next Valve headset will likely have it as well.
OpenXR already supports eye tracking, so SteamVR doesn’t need to do anything to support it for Sony to have made it work. For example, the Quest Pro has eye tracking and can even do eye tracking based foveated rendering when connected to a PC. Leaving it out was 100% an intentional choice on Sony’s part.
There’s no technical reason the PS VR2 can’t send eye tracking data for developers to make use of
