PS5 versions of PS4 games are not playable with PlayStation VR

It is possible to use PlayStation VR in combination with the PlayStation 5. This can only be done by using the PS4 Camera, for which you need an adapter that you can get for free via Sony. can to order. That way you can still use your virtual reality headset on the next-gen console.

Although this is of course nice, there appears to be something strange going on with regard to VR support on the PlayStation 5. Sony has opposite UploadVR indicated that PS5 versions of PS4 games are not playable with PlayStation VR. So you can use the headset in combination with the PlayStation 5, but only when you play the PS4 version of games.

This is the case for No Man’s Sky, for example, which is getting a PS5 version and even offers a free upgrade for owners of the PS4 version. Hitman III, scheduled for release in January 2021, will be released on PS4 and PS5, so you’ll need to play the PS4 version via backwards compatibility to enjoy PlayStation VR on PS5.

In the statement, Sony also made it very clear that no PS5 games for PlayStation VR have been announced to date. So the question is what exactly is Sony’s vision for PlayStation VR for the coming years. Especially since Jim Ryan already this week said that it will probably take years before VR becomes really meaningful.
