Sony's $60 Adapter Enables PlayStation VR2 to Access SteamVR on PCs
  • The PlayStation VR2 headset can now be connected to a PC using a $60 adapter released by Sony, enabling access to SteamVR games.

  • To facilitate the connection, you will need to install Steam, SteamVR, and the PlayStation VR2 app on your PC.

  • Before connecting, ensure your PC meets the PS VR2’s minimum specifications, including Bluetooth 4.0 and a spare DisplayPort 1.4 cable.

  • Next, connect the PS VR2 adapter to a USB 3.0 port, link it to the GPU via DisplayPort 1.4, and power it using the included AC adapter.

  • To connect the headset, first activate Bluetooth on your PC and pair the Sense controllers by holding down the PlayStation and Create buttons until the lights blink.

  • Once connected, turn on the PS VR2 headset, launch SteamVR, and follow on-screen instructions to set up your play area and preferences.

  • For optimal performance, users with newer GPUs may need to disable Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling in their PC settings.

  • Currently, direct connection to a PC without the adapter is not officially supported, though some users report success using GPUs with VirtualLink capabilities.
