help PlayStation VR FAQ
Do you need a PlayStation 4 to use the original PlayStation VR?
Yes, the original PlayStation VR (PSVR) is not a standalone headset and must be tethered to a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5 console. The processing is handled by the console, while the headset acts as the display and tracking interface.
What resolution is the display on the first-generation PSVR?
The original PSVR features a 5.7-inch OLED display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080. It provides a 120Hz refresh rate, which helps reduce motion sickness during gameplay.
What do I need to play PlayStation VR on a PS5?
To use the original PSVR on a PlayStation 5, you need a special PlayStation Camera adapter, which Sony provided for free to PSVR owners. You also still need the PlayStation Move controllers and the PS4 camera, as the PS5 camera is incompatible with PSVR.
Can you play PlayStation VR2 games on the original PSVR?
No, games designed specifically for the PlayStation VR2 are not compatible with the original PSVR due to massive differences in tracking, controllers, and graphical capabilities. However, some developers offer free upgrades or separate versions for both headsets.
