A new certification from the Korean Radio Research Agency, a national regulatory body that oversees radio and communications equipment, suggests that Sony has created a PC adapter for the PSVR 2.
As discovered by virtual reality (VR) influencer Brad Lynch, the certification belongs to a product manufactured by a regional subsidiary of Sony Interactive Entertainment and is called the “PlayStationVR2 PC Adapter.” While this could be anything, the name would heavily suggest that this is an adapter designed to allow the PSVR 2 VR headset, which was originally designed for the PlayStation 5, to work with a PC.
This discovery follows official confirmation that the PVSR 2 was being tested to support PC gaming in February of this year. The adapter will presumably allow the PSVR 2 to work with certain PC games on platforms like Steam in a similar way to other VR headsets.
The idea that a PC adapter could arrive soon is a ray of hope in what has been a rather disappointing year for PSVR 2 owners. Beyond some excellent launch titles like Horizon: The Call of the MountainThe expensive headset has received few compelling games and has been surpassed in terms of library variety and overall versatility by much cheaper alternatives like the Meta Quest 3.
PC compatibility would allow existing owners to get a little more value out of their headset, which could grant them access to many of the best PC VR games, such as Half-life: Alyx.
While it's undeniable that the peripheral has been let down on the software front, we were very pleased with the PSVR 2 when it launched and still consider it one of the best VR headsets around right now. We gave the headset four and a half out of five stars in our PSVR 2 review, praising the incredibly easy setup process, excellent level of responsiveness, comfortable design, and brilliant visual fidelity.
