How Do You Connect PSVR 2 to a PC? Does It Work?

PlayStation VR2 or PSVR 2 is a wired VR headset designed for use with the PlayStation 5. In our article, we'll cover whether you can plug it into a PC and play Steam VR games with it. So, how do you connect PSVR 2 (PlayStation VR2) to a PC? Does it work on PC? Let's look at the answers to these questions and explain how to connect the headset to your computer.

How Do You Connect PSVR 2 (PlayStation VR2) to a PC?

To physically connect a PSVR2 to your computer, all you need to do is plug it into a full-featured USB-C port on your desktop PC.

Does PSVR 2 (PlayStation VR2) Work on PC?

Unfortunately, while Windows can tell that something is connected to the USB-C port, getting it to actually output a signal is an entirely different matter. Plugging it into an AMD GPU's USB-C port is said to be able to get the headset to output a 1080p signal to it as a second display. PSVR 2 Sense controllers connected via USB show up as HID-compliant game controllers, but you can't use them for anything yet. Right now, even if the devices are recognized, PSVR2 doesn't work on your PC. It also doesn't seem very likely that we'll see official drivers. It would make sense for Sony to want to keep PSVR2 support on the PlayStation platform, since it can still profit from software sales there. As we mentioned, while connecting a PSVR 2 to a PC is easy right now, you shouldn't expect it to work, because that kind of support hasn't been provided yet. We hope something like this becomes possible down the line, so we can plug in and play Steam VR games.
