PS5 Won't Support Native PSVR Games at Launch

PS5 Won’t Support Native PSVR Games at Launch

PS5 reportedly reserving VR games as PS4 versions

The PSVR platform is also coming to the PlayStation 5, but with a catch of working through PS4 backwards compatibility. This means current and future PSVR games would be emulated and treated as a past-gen title over the PS5.

Strangely, the PS5 was confirmed to not have a direct integration with PlayStation’s very own VR platform. Users looking to move their headsets over to the next-gen console would need a first-party adapter and existing PlayStation Camera. For upcoming VR games including Hitman 3, players would be required to get the PS4 version in order to unlock its VR setting. But it’s worth noting players can upgrade to the PS5 version for free, meaning there would be two versions of the game installed. A direct statement from Sony to UploadVR outlined their lack of focus on the PSVR for next-gen, adding no PS5 games were in the pipeline for the platform.
