\nThe adaptive triggers on the DualSense are already meant to make games feel more immersive. So just imagine how much more immersive things will feel when you’re playing games in VR that make use of them.
\nThe controllers have finger touch detection
\nMuch of the time you might need to click some of the buttons or move the joysticks. But some games will no doubt use movement for actions without the need to press any buttons. Sony made it so the new controllers have the capability to detect when your fingers are touching them.
\nThis way, when you need to use hand gestures for movement or for actions, those movements or actions should feel more natural to you.
\nThe controllers have tracking tech in them as well. This will allow the headset to know where the controllers are at all times.
\nWhen will the headset launch?
\nSony hasn’t given out any information at all regarding specific launch dates. The only thing it has confirmed at the moment is that the PS5 VR will not be launching in 2021.
\nThat means consumers who want to pick this up can expect it to be at least 2022 before the headset arrives. On one hand, players have a while to wait before they can play with the new headset. On the other hand, this also means Sony still has plenty of development time left in the schedule.
\nAnd that should lead to the headset coming out with less issues, should there be any at all. Which in turn results in a better quality headset for the player. So, when does the headset launch? Sometime in 2022 or beyond. Perhaps in the later part of 2022.
\nWhat will the PS5 VR cost?
\nThis is another detail that Sony has not yet confirmed or even commented on at this time. One could assume that Sony will charge around the same amount as the original PSVR when it launched. But there is also a chance that Sony could charge more money.
\nIt will have improved hardware and features after all. But one thing to consider is that VR has gotten significantly cheaper over the years. Even the high-end headsets. This could push Sony to lower the cost of entry for the new headset compared to the original.
\nDevi kits are going out to developers very soon
\nPlayStation’s Jim Ryan had an interview with GQ back in February of this year, and in it he stated that dev kits are „about to go out soon.”
\nWhile it’ll still be a while before consumers can buy the headset, developers getting their hands on dev kits means things are certainly moving along. And that hopefully bodes well for a healthy collection of titles for the headset when it does launch. As the headset isn’t expected to launch until at least 2022, that would give developers a lot of time to work with the headset. Though not necessarily as much time as needed.
\nSince this interview was from February, it’s also entirely possible that developers already have their hands on dev kits.
