Sony has reduced the price of its PSVR2 headset by $100 in the US until 10 August, bringing the bundle with controllers down to $299 through PlayStation Direct. The article argues that, despite limited first-party support from Sony, the headset remains a worthwhile way for PS5 owners to access more distinctive virtual-reality experiences.

The author highlights virtual-reality modes in Gran Turismo 7 and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, alongside a large catalogue of dedicated games, many from independent developers. PSVR2 can also be connected to a PC using a separate accessory, although the article notes drawbacks including less comfort than the original PSVR and lenses whose optimal viewing position can be difficult to find.
