It looks like the PSVR 2 could very well be the quality headset that comes with the cost, as Oculus VR creator Palmer Luckey has expressed great optimism for the new VR headset.
In a Twitter reply to PS Independents boss Shuhei Yoshida, Luckey said he was "impressed" with the PSVR 2 headset, which was recently tested at CES 5. He added that he believed the original PS VR was "probably the biggest hit". of the generation", and he seems to have high hopes for the PSXNUMX peripheral that will launch on February XNUMX.
While the PSVR 2 received a lot of positive feedback from previous hands-on views, it's a good omen that one of the leading figures in the VR industry has taken a liking to the device. Oculus has undoubtedly been instrumental in bringing VR into the mainstream, with headsets like the Oculus Quest 2 firmly among the best VR headsets released to date.

(*2*)What does this mean for PSVR 2?PSVR 2 seems to be everything we've been waiting for. That's a huge relief considering it's even more expensive than the PS5 console itself. And while we regret the headset's lack of backwards compatibility and lack of PC support at launch, its impressive specs give us confidence that it's likely to be a great piece of equipment on its own.
If PSVR 2 is as powerful as we think it is, then the sky's the limit for the kinds of software we might end up seeing for VR headsets in years to come. Exclusives like Horizon: Call of the Mountain lead the charge at launch, but fascinatingly we see some of the best PS5 games getting PSVR 2 modes and features.
These include Resident Evil Village and Gran Turismo 2, with the latter also getting updated with PSVR 2 support at launch. Resident Evil XNUMX is also going to have PSVR XNUMX content, so we know the headset can handle cutting-edge technology like Capcom's RE Engine.
But what other titles could we potentially see thanks to PSVR 2? Personally, I would really like to see more PS5 games updated with PSVR 2 modes. Though something a bit slower, like the Demon's Souls remake, could benefit from VR thanks to its horrifyingly atmospheric locations.
Even so, I must agree with one of the most common requests I've seen; and that is to bring Valve's superlative Half-Life Alyx to PSVR 2. Considered the quintessential VR experience by those fortunate enough to try it out on more powerful hardware like Valve Index, this would be a potentially deadly app for PSVR 2. Since Valve is no stranger to porting their versions to console, I don't think Half-Life Alyx is out of the question here.
