“PlayStation VR2 is a strong iteration of Sony's first VR headset, but a lack of software and direction leave its future unclear.”

The PlayStation VR2 delivers high-quality visuals and innovative features like eye tracking and haptic feedback, but its value is currently limited by a thin launch library and lack of backward compatibility. It is a solid next step for console VR, though buyers should wait for more native titles.
