Sony has launched the Steam store page for the PlayStation VR2 App, revealing that it will become available on August 7th. This basically means that on August 7th, PC gamers will be able to use the PlayStation VR2 headset to play their VR games.
As Sony noted, PC gamers will be able to install the PS VR2 App to use PS VR2 on your PC, set up their PS VR devices, and keep the firmware for PS VR2 headset and PS VR2 Sense controllers up to date.
Sony has also shared the PC requirements for PlayStation VR2. PC gamers will at least need an Intel Core i5 7600 or AMD Ryzen 3 3100 with 8GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 or AMD Radeon RX 5500XT GPU. PlayStation VR2 requires at least Zen 2 CPUs, as well as NVIDIA’s Turing GPUs.
And there you have it. PlayStation VR2 is described by many as one of the best VR headsets. A lot of VR gamers wanted to use this headset on PC. And, in around two weeks, it will be possible to do so.
Ironically, this may be the only thing to save PSVR2. From what we have seen, Sony launched and immediately abandoned PSVR2 for PS5. Hell, some could say that the support for the first PSVR was better than what console gamers got with PSVR2.
Anyway, as I said, this is great news for PC VR gamers!

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
