New virtual reality glasses for PlayStation 5 will be more expensive than game console itself
The new virtual reality glasses for the PlayStation 5 will be released on 22 February 2023 and will cost €599, reports Sony. This makes the headset more expensive than the game console itself, which is available from €450.
Sony announced the VR2 headset early this year at tech trade show CES in Las Vegas. In May, the tech company revealed that at least 20 games could be played with the glasses. Last summer, Sony already hinted that the glasses would be released early next year.
The PlayStation VR2 headset succeeds the first PlayStation VR, which was released in 2016 and worked with the PlayStation 4. When players put on the glasses, they are placed in a virtual game world. They can look around by turning their heads and use their hands to open doors or shoot, for example.
The glasses will have two OLED screens with a resolution of 2,000 by 2,040 pixels per eye. This should provide much sharper images than its predecessor (960 by 1,080 pixels per eye). The field of vision has also widened: from around 100 degrees to 110 degrees.
