Upgrade paths

other

Full 6-DOF positional tracking of the headset and two hands · Headset-only SKU tracks head orientation but not position without the PS Camera; aiming and hand presence in most titles need Move controllers too, so the real cost of a usable setup is well above the headset's launch price.

~$60 for PlayStation Camera, ~$50-80 for a pair of PS Move controllers

MODERATE

display

Fixed 5.7in OLED panel at launch resolution · No aftermarket panel or lens upgrade path; later PS5 owners can run PS VR via an adapter cable but resolution and refresh are unchanged from 2016.

LOCKED

other

PS5 compatibility via a free USB adapter cable · Original PS VR works on PS5 with the included adapter for a limited library of backward-compatible titles; PS VR2 is a separate, unrelated headset.
