Sony has revealed the first look at the final design for its upcoming PSVR 2 gaming headset along with the Sense controllers. It matches the design aesthetic of PS5. According to Hideaki Nishino, senior vice president of platform experience at Sony, the look of PSVR 2 was inspired by the curved, white and black look of the PS5. Revealed in the PlayStation.Blog, the circular orb shape represents the 360-degree view that players feel when they enter the world of virtual reality and ties into the design aesthetic of the PS5 family of products.

“When I started to work on the design for the PlayStation VR2 headset, one of the areas I wanted to focus on first was the idea of creating a vent in the headset to let air out, similar to the vents on the PS5 console that allows airflow,” Senior Art Director at SIE Yujin Morisawa explained in a PlayStation blog post.
“Our engineers came up with this idea as a good way to allow ventilation and avoid having the lens fog up while players are immersed in their VR games. I worked on many design concepts to achieve this, and in the final design, you can see there is a little space in between the top and front surface of the scope that contains the integrated ventilation. I am really proud of how this turned out and the positive feedback I have gotten so far. I hope our PlayStation fans will also agree, and I can’t wait for them to try it out.”
