If you've been trying everything in your power to connect your PSVR 2 up to a gaming PCౠ so you can play the likes of Half-Life Alyx or Blade and Sorcery, you're in luck. PSVR 2 is getting full PC support come August 7, but the only downside is that you'll need to purchase a small adapter for the headset to speak to your computer.

We got confirmation that PSVR 2, which we deem the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best VR headset, was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:getting PC support back in February, and rumors last week𒀰 pre-emptively revealed that it won't be as simple as plugging your headset in and launching Steam VR. 

Using something that resembles one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best capture cards, you'll need to buy a newly confirmed PlayStation VR2 PC Adapter,🐬 which will set you back an estimated price of $59.99 / £49.99.  You'll also need a DisplayPort 1.4 cable, which won't be a big surprise for anyone who's dabbled in PC VR gaming before.&nbs💞p;

Luckily, setting the headset up to work with a gaming rig doesn't seem too complicated - you plug the device into the PC adapter via the USB-C cable, run a DisplayPort cable into your graphics ๊card, and run the adapter's USB cable into a free slot on your PC. As some of us expected, you'll also need to download a PSVR 2 ap♉plication before launching Steam VR to play games.

Interestingly, we now know the minimum PC specs required for PSVR 2 to work on a PC. You'll need to be running Windows 10 or 11, an Intel Core i5-7600 / AMD Ryzen 3 3100, 8GB of RAM, and at least a Nvidia GeForce GTX 1650, or an AMD Radeon RX 5500XT. While those are minimum recommendations, the PlayStation Blog post that revealed all of this in♕formation did say that an RTX 3060 or AMD Radeon🌠 RX 6600XT or newer equivalents are suggested for the best results.

Similarly, I'm a bit surprised that only 8GB of memory is all Sony says is required. As someone who reviews the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best RAM for gaming, I'd suggest at least 16GB for any gaming activity these days. As VR can be particularly intensive on your memory🦩 though, 32G🎐B is never a bad shout.

As suspected, there are a few feature drawbacks to using PSVR 2 on a PC or 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:gaming laptop compared to your PS5. HDR, head🐼band vibration, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback (that isn't rumble) won't work.𝔉 

Strangely though, foveated rendering will work (without eye-tracking) and 3D audio in supported games will go unaffected. The headset's more physical features will also carry over, including the 4K resolution OLED display (per eye), 110-d🀅egree FOC, passthrough cameras, and capacitive finger touch detectors on the Sense control𓆉lers. 

If you've been holding off on buying a PSVR 2 so far, your ✱best chance to get your hands on it is right now. Thanks to the Days of Play sale, Sony has knocked $100/£100 off the premium headset, as you'll see from the deal information below. 

Steam support for PSVR 2 will be a massive win for PC gamers, as well as anyone on PS5 who's been miffed by the lack of games for the device. Steam VR not onl▨y grants access to some of the best VR titles ever ma💖de that don't appear on the PlayStation store, but it also has plenty of free-to-play experiences that mean the headset won't gather quite as much dust between uses. 

For PC gamers, the PSVR 2 has just become an extremely alluring product. It's been ages since we got a dedicated PC VR headset from a big brand like this, and even longer since we got one that cost under $1,000. PSVR 2 has better specs than the likes of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:HTC Vive Pro 2 and will be able to harness better power for PC games than the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Meta Quest 3 thanks to its display prowess. 

The PC adapter for PSVR 2 doesn't seem to be available for pre-order just yet, but the PlayStation Blo🎐g claims it will be listed on the Play꧂Station Direct store, as well as select retailers.
