Get your room PS VR2 ready
With its single USB cable plug-and-play connection, PS VR2 is incredibly easy to set up – and getting your surrounding ready for virtual reality adventures is easy too.
Set your play area
Ensure you can play freely and with confidence by defining your play area in the PS VR2 settings menu.
Here you can scan your room using the headset’s built-in cameras and fine-tune the boundaries of your play area using the PS VR2 Sense controller.
While playing, if you get close to the perimeter you’ve set up, you’ll see a warning on the headset’s screen. If you stray outside of the play area boundary, See-Through View will automatically activate to show your real-world surroundings.
Play sitting, standing, or with more movement
Choose how you want to play with three VR Play Style options, adjustable depending on the type of game you’re playing:
- Sitting: from a seated position, you’ll need at least 1m x 1m of clear space, with enough room to move your arms freely.
- Standing: if you prefer to play standing, you’ll need at least 1m x 1m of clear space. Again, ensure you have enough room to move your arms freely.
- Roomscale: for games that involve more movement, Roomscale mode requires 2m x 2m of free space.
Please check the supported VR Play Style for each title to ensure you have enough space to play.
Getting ready to play
Your PS VR2 headset has built-in ways to ensure you play in comfort, so your immersion in the game world is never compromised.
Play in comfort
Enhance the incredible sense of immersion in virtual worlds with the PS VR2 headset’s adjustable headband, scope and lenses.
When you connect your headset, on-screen prompts guide you through steps to ensure everything fits snugly on your head, the scope is in the correct position, and your eyes are positioned in the middle of the lenses, allowing Eye Tracking and Foveated Rendering to make your games come alive.
Never lose your headphones
Experience incredible 3D Audio in supported games with your favorite audio device, such as the PULSE Explore™ wireless earbuds, or simply use the supplied earpieces connected to the PS VR2 headset. If you choose not to use the supplied earpieces, they can be safely clipped into a built-in storage compartment.
Stay connected to the real world with See Through View
Keep interruptions to a minimum by checking your surroundings with See Through View, letting you take a look at the real world without removing the headset.
At any time, you can press the Function button at the bottom of the PS VR2 scope and instantly see your room, letting you talk to other people, pick up your controller or anything else you need to do while your game is paused.
