Highlights include titles from popular franchises like No Man’s Sky, Resident Evil Village and Horizon Call of the Mountain. There’s also a free PS VR2 update for Gran Turismo 7 due out on launch day. Developer Polyphony Digital said GT7 will take full advantage of the headset’s next-gen features including eye tracking and foveated rendering. Two-player split-screen races will not support VR, we’re told, but all other race modes including online competition will.
NFL Pro Era, meanwhile, is the first fully licensed NFL and NFLPA VR game. It’ll challenge players to see if they have what it takes to lead their favorite team to the Super Bowl – or, opt for something a bit more relaxed like playing catch with friends in a recognizable stadium. Kayak VR: Mirage is also coming to PS VR2. Originally launched last summer, this jaw-dropping simulator is all about the visuals. Paddle alongside dolphins in Costa Rica, navigate ice caves in Antarctica or soak in rays against the canyons of Australia – all with photorealistic graphics, varied wildlife and a rich soundscape that helps tie it all together. If adrenaline is more your thing, pump up the heart rate and compete in race mode against friends and family. How you play is up to you. Sony’s PlayStation VR2 launches February 22 for $549.99 and will include a headset, a pair of Sense controllers and stereo headphones. The full launch window lineup is as follows:
