And on August 7, a PC adapter will go on sale for a price of 59.99 euros, which can be purchased at classic distributors and in the PlayStation Direct store. In this way, Sony intends that works like Half-Life: AlyxFallout 4 VR and War Thunder They can be enjoyed with their own accessory.

Within them you can customize multiple aspects so that everything is ready to play a game. However, there are some differences compared to PS5 that are insurmountable.
HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback will not be available on PC, although others will be. 4K graphics (2000 x 2040 per eye), 110-degree field of view, touch detection and outside vision, foveated rendering (no eye tracking), and 3D audio (not Tempest 3D) will be present in all those games that are compatible.
