Save $250 on this incredible headset

On November 22, 2024By Littum

The PlayStation VR2 is one of the standout deals in this year’s PS5 Black Friday sale, offering an incredible discount. The PSVR2 Horizon: Call of the Mountain bundle has dropped $250, bringing it down to just $350, which is the price of the standalone headset in this sale. (This agreement is also available in the UK at a similar price).

Picking up the bundle is an easy choice as it includes a great game to pair with your new VR headset. This deal positions the PSVR2 as a compelling alternative to more affordable VR options like Meta Quest, making it an enticing option for newcomers and enthusiasts alike. Given the great value of the headset, this seems like a no-brainer for PlayStation enthusiasts.

What we said in our review

In his review for IGN, Gabriel Moss awarded the PSVR2 a 9and said: “PlayStation VR2 may seem expensive, considering it costs $150 more than the basic PS5 Digital Edition console you’ll need to use it. Yet it’s such a quantum leap over the original PSVR in terms of ease of use, visual quality and immersion that every PlayStation owner who loves VR should upgrade as soon as possible.”

“Its 4K HDR OLED screen and excellent tactile Sense controllers are the most obvious improvement, but abundant quality-of-life changes and raw horsepower on PS5 set a new standard for how VR games should play and feel on console.”

PS5 Black Friday deals are now live on Amazon

PlayStation’s PS5 console offering is also now live for Black Friday, with Fortnite Cobalt Star Bundle and NBA 2K Bundle, at $374.99 for the digital edition or $424.99 for Disc Edition. These deals are also available in the UK at a similar price.

This is the best PS5 console deal of the year – and it’s likely to be the last big discount heading into the holidays. If you’ve been holding out for a good price, now’s your chance. However, these deals may sell out or expire before Black Friday itself, so act quickly to secure yours and avoid disappointment. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer.

What you need to use PSVR 2 on PC

In terms of hardware, you need the PC adapter and a PSVR 2 headset – as well as a VR-capable gaming PC, of course. You also need to download PlayStation VR2 and SteamVR apps from Steam. You can find the minimum PC requirements and more details at PlayStation Blog.

Beyond the convenience of using one headset to play all your VR games, what really stands out about the PSVR2 on PC is the OLED display. It makes everything look bright and clear and alive. But the downside of using PSVR2 on PC is that PCs can’t take advantage of some of the unique features you can access when playing on PS5. It includes things like eye tracking, HDR and adaptive trigger support.
