The PlayStation VR2 is supposed to be the perfect companion to the PlayStation 5. It isn’t a truly standalone headset—Meta’s Quest models are the ones to buy for untethered VR—but it is comfortable and easy to set up, it looks great, and it comes closer than any other cabled headset to bringing console-level simplicity to VR.
However, the PS VR2 requires a PS5 to use, so not only are you tethered to a console with a cable, but you also have to splurge on two devices, making it a tough sell for most people. On top of that, the PS VR2 isn’t backward-compatible with the last-generation PS VR’s software library, so it lacks the plethora of games you get with Meta’s Quest headsets or other, PC-based headsets. It’s a great device, but until PlayStation announces a slate of must-play games that aren’t available anywhere else, most people shouldn’t buy one yet.
