At Sony’s Consumer Electronics Show press conference, PlayStation boss Jim Ryan announced a new launch title for the PlayStation VR2 headset: Gran Turismo 7<\/em>. The racing game will get a free VR update in time for the new headset’s release on Feb. 22.<\/p>\n

The addition considerably strengthens the launch lineup for Sony’s new PlayStation 5-exclusive virtual reality device, which boasts impressive specs and a sky-high $549.99 price tag. Also launching with PS VR2 are Horizon Call of the West<\/em>an exclusive VR spinoff from Sony’s popular open-world adventures, as well as VR versions of No Man’s Sky<\/em> and Resident Evil Village<\/em>. Ryan promised that \u201cmore than 30 games are on track for the launch window,\u201d although he didn’t specify how long that window would be.<\/p>\n

Ryan also mentioned that the ubiquitous VR rhythm game Beat Saber<\/em> will be getting a PSVR 2 version at some point in the future.<\/p>\n

GT7<\/em> isn’t the first Gran Turismo game to get a VR update; 2017’s Gran Turismo Sport<\/em> is compatible with the original PlayStation VR headset, albeit in a fairly limited mode. Sony didn’t reveal how extensive the VR mode for GT7<\/em> will be, but Ryan showed some impressive footage of it in action.<\/p>\n
