Sony announced that PlayStation VR2 will launch on February 22 and has revealed its price, two bundles, as well as accessories and newly announced games.
The standard package will retail at $549.99. It includes the headset, two PS VR2 sense controllers, and stereo headphones. Check out the box below.
If you want something to play out of the box, the PlayStation VR2 Horizon Call of the Mountain bundle has you covered. This edition runs for $599.99 and tosses in a digital code for the first-person Horizon spin-off on top of everything that comes in the standard package.
Want to charge your controllers without using up your PS5’s USB ports? Feast your eyes on the PlayStation VR2 Sense controller charging station. For $49.99, this separate dock replenishes your VR gamepads by simply clicking them into the base without the need to connect to a console.
Sony states that pre-orders go live on November 15. During the launch phase, the only place to pre-order will be through the online store at direct.playstation.com for the US, UK, France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg. You can register to pre-order beginning today, and orders made through the online store will be shipped during launch week. Meanwhile, customers in other markets will have to reserve PS VR2 at local retailers.
