The PlayStation VR2 headset is finally becoming compatible with PC next week, and it seems like the headset works on PC as well as it does on PlayStation 5, according to a new video shared online.

As reported by Gamergen on YouTube and summarized by ResetERA forums members Cilidra and DjRare, the Sony headset works very well on PC, with good tracking, image quality, and easy setup, even with the beta version of the app. The only complaints are the same for using the headset on PlayStation 5, namely the headset's cable and sweet spot. At the end of the day, the adapter bringing compatibility with PC is a great purchase for those who already own the headset and a VR-ready PC, thanks to its low cost. Those who don't own the headset, however, may find other compelling options, according to Gamergen.

It's great to hear the PlayStation VR2 works well on PC. The introduction of compatibility with the most common VR gaming platform and its recent price drop may breathe new life into the headset, which isn't getting supported by Sony as much as it should have. You can learn more about the headset by checking out Kai's review.

With a pricetag befitting of next-generation hardware, the PlayStation VR2 headset offers a virtual reality experience that's unique to the PlayStation 5 ecosystem. Only time will tell if the new technology is worth the investment but all of the design changes and new features make me excited for what's to come in the future for PlayStation VR2.
