PSVR 2 pre-order: date and sign up notifications
The PSVR 2 pre-order date and time will be sent to you via a notification when the PSVR 2 goes on sale
 |
The PSVR 2 pre-order date and time are coming and you can sign up for notifications today to know when and where to buy the Sony PlayStation 5 VR headset. I’ve helped hundreds of thousands of people with PS5 restock tracking information daily, and I’ll do the same when the official PSVR 2 release date has been announced in the coming weeks or months.
It’s time you get PSVR 2 notifications about when and where to find it in stock.
PSVR 2 will offer a state-of-the-art virtual reality PlayStation 5 headset, and while the pre-order date is forthcoming information, I know this: it will sell out quickly. This is because of the global chip shortage affecting console restocks and even cars, computer components like GPUs and smartphones, as I recently noted in my Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra review. In my PS5 SSD upgrade how-to install guide, I’ve even noted that some 2TB SSDs are out of stock at the time of publishing.
Demand for the Sony PSVR 2 headset will be high. Sony hasn’t confirmed the PSVR 2 release date just yet, so pre-orders of the PlayStation 5 VR headset could happen at any date and time, as Sony never offers much advance notice to retailers in the US, including GameStop, Walmart, Target and Best Buy.

Why trust my PSVR 2 pre-order tracker
I’ve already started gathering PSVR 2 information: I flew to CES 2022 in Las Vegas to see Sony announce the PSVR 2 headset in January at a press conference, one that is usually reserved for Sony Bravia TV news. The PlayStation VR 2 ended up being the news highlight of the conference. Now it’s April 2022 and I’ll be tracking PSVR 2 pre-order date and time information in the next few weeks as more news is released. I’ve done the same for Target PS5 and Amazon PS5 restock tracking.
Over 216,000 have been able to get a PS5 Disc or PS5 Digital console through my restock tracking efforts, and I plan to be just as helpful with PSVR 2 pre-orders.
PSVR 2 pre-order quick explainer
🥽 PlayStation VR2 is Sony’s next-gen virtual reality headset for PS5
🤼♂️ PSVR 2 comparison: Facebook’s Oculus Quest 2 is the closest rival (Xbox is really MIA in VR)
🗓️ PSVR 2 release date to be announced, but my expert analysis says late 2022 given the fact that Sony’s announcement happened in early January 2022
Note: the original PSVR took 13 months to launch after being named, but was on a different timeline: it was announced in September 2015 and came out October 2016, in time for the holidays that year, whereas the January 2022 announcement we just had and potential February 2023 release date for PSVR 2 makes less sense. In 2016, this was new tech for Sony; it needed more time to incubate back then. Not so in 2022.
💰No official price, but PSVR cost $399 in 2016; Oculus Quest 2 is $299
🙌 Orb-shaped PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers and headset
Goodbye, weird wand-shaped PlayStation Move controllers
📺 4K OLED HDR (PSVR was 1080p), 2000 x 2040 per eye resolution
📸 Four cameras embedded for headset and controller tracking
This inside-out tracking means no external camera is required
That $60 PS5 HD camera seems less relevant suddenly
👀 Eye-tracking via an IR camera
📳 Force feedback built into the headset
📐 Field of view: 110 degrees (wider than the PSVR by 10 degrees)
🏃♂️ 90Hz - 120Hz refresh rate (same as before)
🔌 Single-cord USB-C setup
🎮 Horizon: Call of the Mountain is a PSVR 2 launch date, and here’s a video clip of the virtual reality gameplay.
Expert tip: Don’t limit yourself to one store: Sony PlayStation Direct may sell the headset directly, as it has done with consoles care of Sony Direct PS5 queue invite emails. It also carved out a timed exclusive for the new PS5 controller colors and cover plates; other retailers in the United States had to wait. So Sony is leaning heavily on selling direct to consumers. But I fully expect to see PSVR 2 for sale at Walmart, Target, Best Buy, GameStop Amazon, Antonline and other US retailers.
