PlayStation Camera (PS4)

Product Information

Once your PSVR adapter arrives, you can use your headset on the shiny new PS5 console and enjoy the wonders of VR on your next-generation system. Use the pinhole at the back of the controller and re-pair it with the PS4 and recalibrate with the PS VR. Not only that — PlayStation Camera works with the light bar on your DUALSHOCK 4 wireless controller light bar or PlayStation Move motion controller spheres, so you can interact with your surroundings with precision and ease.

Sony announced it would ship PlayStation VR adapters, free of charge, to people who currently own the PSVR headset, and even promised to have them delivered by the time the new console launched on November 19, 2020.

The Playroom is a free app that comes pre-installed on to all PS4 consoles, but requires the Camera to actually play.
