PSVR was launched on October 13, 2016, at the price of $399. In less than a year, Sony’s gaming headset managed to sell over 915,000 units. Today, it’s compatible with over 600 games. This guide will teach you how to connect your PSVR to a PS5, so you can start enjoying VR gaming.

The CUH-ZVR2 kit is the updated version, while CUH-ZVR1 is the launch version. Both kits are currently on the market. The CUH-ZVR2 VR kit’s processor unit allows HDR passthrough on compatible 4K TVs. The updated version of the headset also has streamlined cabling.

The controller included with your PS5 is not compatible with PSVR. Most PSVR games use the PS4’s standard DualShock 4 controller because of its VR tracking capabilities.

Many games are also compatible with the PSVR Aim controller or the use of two PSVR Move motion controllers. A few games necessarily require two PSVR Move trackers, so they’re not compatible with the DualShock 4 or the PSVR Aim.

To connect your PS Camera with the PS5, you’ll need an adapter. This is because the PS Camera was intended for the PS4. You can get this adapter for free on Sony’s official website. Shipping takes about two weeks.

Inside the box of your PSVR kit, you’ll find the following:

If you have purchased a new PS5 along with the PSVR kit, remember to set up the console before installing PSVR. Follow the on-screen instructions, then shut down the console before proceeding with the next steps.

Make sure all components you’re going to use are switched off: the console, the processing unit, the PS Camera, and so on.

Below is the series of steps you need to do next.

If you have the CUH-ZVR2, install the stereo headphones onto the headset itself. They will work as integrated headphones. The headset has earpiece holders for when you’re not playing.

If you have the CUH-ZVR1, plug the headphones into the jack of the inline remote. If you don’t want to use the headphones included with the kit, any model is fine.

Install the PS Camera just below your TV or on its top lip, in the center. The camera should be about five feet above the floor.

Don't forget that you need to use the Sony adapter to connect the PS Camera to your PS5.

Plug the power supply provided with the kit into the back of your PSVR unit. Connect the other end to an electrical outlet.

Based on the PSVR kit you have, you’ll have to plug the headset into different places:

Now, your PSVR is fully installed and you’re ready to enjoy VR content or try a new, immersive gaming experience.
