It's not in a state I'd feel comfortable recommending at the moment, but I'll revisit it if and when commercial production is viable. The company is now attempting to outsource production while opening retail sales to fund unfulfilled Kickstarter orders. But the Kickstarter money has since run out, thanks to rising material costs, and production rates were slow anyway. It's an innovative design and an incredible bit of hardware. Annoyingly, it's even simpler than running racing games from the PC itself.Īside, if you're wondering why I haven't reviewed the YawVR2 yet, it's because I was an early Kickstarter backer and lucky enough to have it delivered before things went south. I just power on the YawVR2, power on the PC, which auto-launches SRS, then power on the PlayStation with the wheel as the main controller. This sounds like a lot of effort to get set up and running, but it's actually not. Sim Racing Studio extracts the telemetry from over the local network. The motion rig sits on the network, listening to commands from Sim Racing Studio, running on my PC. You'll see in the video review that I'm using a GT923 racing wheel and a YawVR2 motion simulator. They're great games, but I have them elsewhere. I don't need yet another copy of Beat Saber, or Pistol Whip. It also means my gaming experience on the PlayStation VR2 is limited to a few standout titles, as I don't plan on buying again the many VR classics that are padding out the launch lineup. I'll be coming at this review primarily from that angle, rather than someone completely new to VR, so don't be surprised to see me ignore all comfort settings and breeze past the issue of motion sickness that typically plagues those first few weeks with a headset.

I picked up the PlayStation VR2 for both access to exclusive games and to see how the hardware was improved over current offerings. I've owned and tried more headsets than I can count on both hands, and until now, I've settled on the Oculus Quest 2 for ease of use and accessibility, as well as a Valve Index for tethered high-quality PCVR gaming. He went on to form Oculus and arguably kickstarted the entire consumer VR industry.
