Sony’s PSVR2 Headset stands out as the go-to VR gear for PS5 enthusiasts, though it’s been known for its hefty price tag. However, there’s good news afoot—just yesterday, Sony announced a price drop for the headset, now retailing at $399.99. This adjustment makes it more competitive with the Meta Quest 3 line, where the Quest 3 is $499 and the Quest 3S comes in at $299.
If you’ve been eyeing the PlayStation VR2 headset, now’s the perfect time to make a move. Retailers are already aligning with the new pricing, and you can snag the PSVR2 Horizon Call of the Mountain Bundle for just $399.99 at Target. Unfortunately, Amazon has already run out of stock for this bundle.
### Today’s Top PlayStation VR2 Offer
In the bundle, besides the headset, you also get a copy of Horizon Call of the Mountain, which we awarded a solid 7 out of 10. Although this game is exclusive to PlayStation, your VR adventures aren’t limited to just the PS5, thanks to Sony’s PSVR2 PC adapter released last year. This handy accessory allows you to connect the headset to your PC and dive into SteamVR titles, making the PSVR2 a stellar option for PC gamers as well. If you’re interested in figuring out the setup, our detailed guide will walk you through connecting it to your PC.
### Reflecting on Our Review
When the PSVR2 headset first debuted, we got a chance to test it out. Here’s a brief rundown of how it fared:
“The PlayStation VR2 might seem costly, especially since it exceeds the price of the PS5 Digital Edition console needed to run it by $150. Still, it’s a significant upgrade from the original PSVR—boasting improvements in user-friendliness, visual clarity, and immersive experience—making it a must-have for PlayStation VR devotees. Its 4K HDR OLED display and the engaging Sense controllers are the standout upgrades. The numerous quality-of-life enhancements, paired with the robust capabilities of the PS5, redefine the console VR experience. However, its limited launch game lineup combined with the lack of backward compatibility with older PSVR games are points of contention, though these are likely to be remedied as Sony and other developers release new titles that leverage the PSVR2’s capabilities.”
