With this Black Friday price cut, the PSVR 2 is now a must-buy PS5 accessory
Even though it might have seemed dead on arrival, the PSVR 2 has finally become an essential PS5 accessory this Black Friday.
While its original price point of £529.99 was absurd – that’s pricier than the PS5 itself for crying out loud – the 36% discount for the PSVR 2 has brought it down to the price it always should have been, warranting a second look at the device.
Down now to just £339, it’s much easier to make the argument that the PSVR 2, like the DualSense Edge or the PlayStation Portal, now deserves its due as one of the PS5’s best accessories.

For starters, it needs to be said – for those who don’t know – that the PSVR 2 is one of the most technologically advanced VR headsets on the market. This thing packs an unbelievable 4K OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. When detailing the experience, our reviewer wrote:
“I’ll never forget the first time stepping into the incredibly detailed jungle of Horizon Call of the Mountain, offering far more gorgeous vistas than what the Meta Quest 2 is capable of.”
Speaking of which, Horizon Call of the Mountain is easily the best game to pair with this headset from the get-go. This Horizon spin-off has been designed specifically with the PSVR 2 in mind, making the most of its technology to really put you in the dystopian world that the series offers.
