Sony Discontinues Free PSVR Camera Adapter for PS5
Sony is discontinuing the free camera adapter necessary for using the original PlayStation VR headset on the PS5. This adapter allows the PS4’s PlayStation Camera accessory to connect to the PS5, enabling the use of the original VR headset on the newer console. The adapter will no longer be available starting from November 26, 2024, or until supplies run out, whichever comes first[1][2][5].
The primary reason for discontinuing this adapter is the recent launch of PlayStation VR2, which offers improved features like higher resolution, HDR, wider field of view, eye tracking, and better controllers. However, some users may still want to use the original PSVR due to content availability and cost considerations[5].
If you need an adapter, act quickly because these adapters will soon be unavailable through official channels. However, you can try acquiring one from marketplaces like eBay if you still want to use your original PSVR headset on your PS5[3][5].
