PlayStation VR

After almost two years of drip-feeding us details, Sony has finally revealed the last tidbits of info we needed about the PlayStation VR2 – the price and the release date. The cherry on top is a slew of new games to try to entice us to it.

Sony has detailed the specs for the PlayStation VR 2, and it's surprisingly powerful, with a 4K OLED display, high refresh rates, eye tracking and a more robust movement tracking system. The first game for the platform has been unveiled too.

Just weeks after confirming a PlayStation 5 VR system is in development, Sony has now shown off the controllers. The new designs look lightyears ahead of the PS4’s clunky old sticks, and pack features from the PS5’s DualSense and Sony's competitors.

Sony’s next-generation gaming console, the PlayStation 5, is almost here. New Atlas rounds up everything we know about the PS5’s hardware, games, controllers, features and services.

The 3dRudder, a kind of balance board that players steer with their feet, is making its way to PlayStation VR users in the US.

Our sense of smell is now being used to help sell the illusion of virtual reality with the FeelReal VR Mask, which not only wafts certain scents your way but can also simulate rain, heat and wind on your face.

The holiday break is the best time to catch up on all the games you might have missed this year, or even splash out on a new console. We’ve rounded up the best deals on consoles, games and accessories for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.

If you want a virtual reality setup, but aren't willing to pay top dollar for a PC-based system, then you're left with either mobile or console-based VR. Let's compare two of the most popular options, the 2017 Gear VR​ and Sony PSVR​.

One of the draws of virtual reality is that you can do things you can't do in real life. If one of your fantasies is to find out what it's like to be Batman, look no further than Batman: Arkham VR. Formerly a Playstation VR exclusive, the title is coming to the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive on April 25.

On paper, Sony’s PlayStation VR is the virtual reality system to buy. If only Sony had delivered a stable experience that captures the magic that made VR desirable in the first place.

If Sony delivers a product that's even a reasonable approximation of the Rift​ and Vive​, then PlayStation VR​ should be practically a cinch to "win" the consumer VR wars. Let's see how its specs and features compare to the Vive.

Sony’s PlayStation VR​ should have a monumental advantage in mainstream consumer adoption. But can the final consumer version overcome the severe limitations we ran into in our pre-release demos? We’ll find out soon – in the meantime, here’s how it stacks up next to the PC-based Oculus Rift​.
