During the VR boom in the past few years, Sony’s Play Station VR has also won the preferences of many players because of its low overall cost of construction and support for some fairly fun games. Of course, due to the lack of support for more game masterpieces in the follow-up , And with the ebb of the VR market, PS VR faded out of mainstream players’ vision, but Sony is obviously still optimistic about the application of VR in console games, so they announced their choice to continue to launch a new generation of PS VR on the next-generation console PS5. , And this time the supporting peripherals will be greatly improved.
Sony has only announced the appearance of the new generation of PS VR controllers, and has not released any information about the key components of the head-mounted display.

In fact, the first The first generation of PS VR is already Samsung’s OLED panel, but the screen resolution is relatively low, only 960*1080 per eye. Compared with the headsets of the same period at the time, it is not an exaggeration to call it a big fruit. It is close to the human eye, so if the display clarity is not enough, the player will be very entertained.
However, many years have passed, and the screen panels used for VR have also improved a lot. It is said that Samsung will provide a resolution of 4000*2080 (2000*2080 per eye). The sharpness has been greatly improved. As for the refresh The rate is currently unknown, but it should also be improved. After all, a higher refresh rate is also an important specification for VR. Sony chose to use a higher resolution panel this time. It should also benefit from the hardware performance of the PS5 itself than the PS4. Improved a lot, and can better cope with the game under the high-definition picture.
In terms of refresh rate, contrast, and brightness, OLED is inherently conducive to the display of VR content that is very close to the human eye, but the cost is relatively higher, and Sony insists on using better panels, which can be regarded as providing players with Better gaming experience (although the wool is still on the sheep), the new generation of PS VR has not yet announced the price and launch date, so if you want to play VR, you can buy the PS5 first.
