The consumer edition matches the 2015 Project Morpheus model in keeping its predecessor's Full HD 1920 x 1080 display, but ups it from 5-inches to 5.7-inches, which gives a 100-degree field of vision. You'll get a pair of in-ear buds in your PS VR box, but we'd recommend plugging in soem decent over ear ones for a much more immersive experience. This 3D audio makes it seem like noise is hitting your ears from different directions (including above and below you) and distances, making everything all the more real.įor example, if you hear a creak behind you and to your right in an FPS, you better turn and shoot. When using PS VR you plug in your headphones directly to the headset to make use of the binaural 3D audio. Sony has suggested that it could develop a wireless version of the VR headset Senior game designer Jed Ashforth said the company would "never say never" when questioned about the possibility of a wireless PS VR headset. A nice feature of the box is that it also includes HDMI-out, so you can connect a screen and see what the user's experiencing without any distortion. Sony has also created a secondary box (the Processor Unit) that connects to the PS4 via USB and HDMI, to handle the specifics of the headset's operation. However, PS VR's integrated display is 1920 x 1080 and does not support 4K output and there are no HDR features.Īnother contender?

In the box you'll get a connection cable, HDMI cable, USB cable, stereo headphones and a power cord.Īs mentioned, Sony PlayStation VR will hooks up to the Sony PlayStation 4.
Again, Sony is relaunching an old accessory in new packaging for the Move controllers, but your regular old ones from PS3 days will work just as well. In terms of controls, your standard DualShock 4 pad will do the job - although there are additional controls if you throw a couple of Move controllers into the mix.
