We named the PlayStation VR2 our favorite VR headset with the best gaming library, and Mashable's Alex Perry praised it as a "killer headset in need of a killer app." It's still waiting for a larger library of exclusive titles, but that doesn't keep it from being an excellent VR experience right now.

Perry called the headset an improvement over the original PlayStation VR with "impressive specs," noting that it's "more than comfortable" as a VR headset. It boasts two 2000x2040 OLED displays that serve 4K HDR visuals up to 120fps (which is four times the resolution of PlayStation VR), intelligent eye tracking, immersive 3D audio, and headset vibrations for feedback while playing.

The PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers are a new addition to the package, which add haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, finger touch detection, and precision tracking as well.

If you've yet to experience games like Rez Infiniteor Beat Saber, both available on the platform, now's a great time to jump on this deal and try them out, as well as the rest of what's currently available in the PSVR2 library.
