The charging station for the PlayStation VR2 will retail on its own as a separate bundle, which can be bought when purchasing the gaming headsets. It will retail for $49.99 and charging the control with this is simple with the use of what Sony calls a click-in design which charges wirelessly. This soon-to-launch next-generation gaming headset from Sony will come with some new features such as a feature to keep players aware of their environment while gaming.
This feature will use the cameras on the headset to picture the surrounding environment, so users can stay “at the moment” even when a game is running. For an immersive experience, the in-built motion sensors will give some haptic feedback of actions taken within the game, so users can feel the moment. These are just a few of what users can expect to launch with the PlayStation VR2 gaming headset.
Sony says that the pre-order page for this coming gaming headset will go live on November 15. But, those interested in getting one for themselves can start applying for the Pre-order program right away. Once available come February 22, the headset will be available in the Sony official store in the following regions: U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg.
