Sinthoras_96 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Just a heads up for everyone, who is thinking about connecting the PSVR with the announced free adapter to their PS5 and HDMI 2.1 TV. The PSVR box is HDMI 2.0, so that means it's technically impossible for it to passthrough a 120 FPS + 4K + HDR + eARC Signal. Personally I will probably keep my PS4 Pro connected to the VR as "VR console" in one HDMI slot at my TV and the PS5 directly to the TV for normal gaming.

Indeed no need just keep it connected to ps4 and wait for PSVR 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Japanime_Gamer Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Why would you sacrifice the extra power of the PS5 when all you would need to do is swap over HDMI cables which would take 5 seconds maximum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaivRules Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 4 hours ago, Sinthoras_96 said: 120 FPS + 4K + HDR + eARC Signal I guess the real decision will be how many of their PS5 games actually utilize all those things versus how many VR game do they play. If they don't have any PS5 games utilize those things, then no harm in leaving the VR box hooked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't have any PS5 games utilize those things, then no harm in leaving the VR box hooked up. Especially if you still own the first VR version and a TV which can do HDR, switching is a must. HDR is default in every game on PS5 and doesn't require HDMI 2.1 but the first VR can't even do that. 3 hours ago, Japanime_Gamer said: Why would you sacrifice the extra power of the PS5 when all you would need to do is swap over HDMI cables which would take 5 seconds maximum? I highly doubt that VR games will profit from the PS5 power. The VR itself is still the same after all and all VR games I've played didn't have any framedrops. Blurry graphics won't change only because you run the games on the PS5. And for me switching around with the cables every time is very annoying. Since I keep the ps4 pro anyway, I will simply keep the VR connected to it. Edited October 30, 2020 by Sinthoras_96 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK well that is interesting because when i played on VR with a PS4 Pro there was a noticbable difference in the crispness of games than when i played with a launch PS4. So i would argue your point and suggest that on the PS5 PSVR games will run and look better due to the significantly higher power.

There is no improvements to refresh rates or processing improvements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N1NJ4_V4MP1R3 Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Objectively the PS4 Pro makes a lot of visual improvements on the VR titles I’ve played so I’m sure with some patches the PS5 will be able to clean up a lot of the groggy looking VR titles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dJordman Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Depends on the game. Blood & Truth has been optimised specifically for PS5, see: Blood & Truth is PS5 ready! But many titles haven't been patched to utilise the extra horsepower of the PS5. Understandable in a way, but still a shame. Titles like Ghost Giant, Moss, Wipeout Omega Collection, Resident Evil 7, Gran Turismo Sport, Ace Combat 7, Skyrim, Until Dawn - Rush of Blood, Superhot VR, Driveclub VR... would be even better.
