The helmet was first seen in January of this year during the CES show in Las Vegas and is the successor to the one that the company put up for sale for the PS4. It will be much more advanced. It will have, for example, a 4K resolution, with 2,000 x 2,040 pixels for each eye. Also a viewing angle of 110 degrees to give a greater sense of spaciousness to games. The screens will have a refresh rate of between 90 and 120 Hz and to create scenes of great realism it will also use a technique known as "foveada rendering", which puts a greater number of details in the areas of the field of vision where visual acuity is elderly.

This will be possible thanks to the fact that the helmet will be able to know where the gaze is directed. Cameras integrated into the exterior will also allow to know the position and movement of the head and recreate the real world in the field of vision when total isolation is not necessary. Sony will also debut new hand controls with various sensors, triggers and buttons.

The helmet will go on sale with a catalog of more than 20 games available. During the CES press conference, the company showed, for example, the teaser for Horizon: Call of the Mountains, a new adventure based on the popular video game Horizon: Zero Dawn. A virtual reality version of the game No Man's Sky and the horror title Resident Evil Village will also be available.

Of course, the price of the peripheral, designed to be used together with the PS5 console, remains a mystery.
