PlayStation VR Mega Pack (PS4)

Product Information

Lag felt less prevalent on the Pro system, though in all fairness, it wasn't something we felt was a major problem while using the standard issue console.Whether the minor improvements are worth paying extra for the more powerful hardware is ultimately a decision we'll leave up to you; however, it's our opinion that you can get by with a standard PS4 just fine. If you want to be specific about it, PlayStation VR can handle 1080p games on its 920 x RGB x 1080 OLED display at either 90Hz (meaning that the image refreshes itself 90 times per second) or at 120Hz depending on the VR game or application. Take gaming to new heights, depths and levels of immersion to discover breathtaking new worlds every time you put on the headset. Moss is a single-player action-adventure puzzle game from Polyarc, tailor-made for the VR platform. It takes compelling characters, gripping combat and captivating world exploration and combines them all with the exciting possibilities of virtual reality.

Hear approaching footsteps or distant screams with pinpoint accuracy through cutting-edge surround sound. There's definitely a distinct difference between PS4 and PS4 Pro versions of VR games. However, it's probably not one that can be spotted by the unwitting non-techie –it's something that you can only spot if you're paying close attention to how certain textures look in-game or how objects look in the distance. Absorb every second of the action through a custom 5.7’ OLED screen with smooth visuals and super low latency. Like other virtual reality headsets on the market, PlayStation VR has the arduous task of completely immersing you in a video game by producing two images simultaneously and then sending them to a headset a few feet away. But unlike competing devices (which require expensive graphics cards to get the job done), PS VR can do it using only the PlayStation 4's built-in GPU.

Incredible audio

The PS VR headset is designed to be very easy to put on and take off, with an adjustable headband and optical scope for the perfect fit. Journey through five unique and exclusive PlayStation VR experiences, showcasing the inventiveness of VR design across a huge breadth of content and game genres. In Ocean Descent, go nose to nose with a great white shark, in Scavengers Odyssey, crawl through decaying space hulks. Weave between oncoming traffic in VR Ludge, survive a futuristic sport with Danger Ball or take part in a gritty London gangster thriller with The London Heist.

If you decide to get up and wander around, the PSVR can follow you to an extent, but don't expect to take more than a few steps in any direction without a warning from the system that you're straying too far away. While writing the PS4 Pro review, we got the chance to try the upgraded hardware with the PlayStation VR and the results were noticeable, if a bit underwhelming in reality. Playing PS VR games on a PS5 console requires a PS VR headset, PlayStationCamera for PS4 (Model CUH-ZEY1 or CUH-ZEY2) and a PlayStationCamera adaptor (all included in the bundle). Blue alert… Captain ASTRO’s crew-bots are missing! Grab your multi-tool controller and blast off on a wild VR platform adventure like you’ve never seen. Look and lean in any direction to judge death-defying leaps and use your whole body to interact with your surroundings to solve puzzles.If you didn't already own the PlayStation Camera or Move Motion Controllers, the PSVR Launch Day bundle was the better bet, but now we're further down the line the bundles – and the messaging around exactly what components you'll need – are much better. Survive a gangster thrill-ride in The London Heist; plunge into the depths of Ocean Descent; hunt an alien artefact in Scavenger’s Odyssey; weave through traffic in VR Luge; and destroy rivals in futuristic sport Danger Ball. Those numbers are great, but they're matched by both the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. The one advantage Sony has that neither Oculus nor HTC can claim is that it's actually a world-class game publisher. While the other two have been trying to create connections with developers over the past few years, Sony already has them. Put your whole body into play with a new way to experience the classic PlayStation golf franchise. Use your PS VR headset to take the measure of the terrain and read the wind direction of each of the 18 holes across three courses.
