We weren’t allowed to get started with it yet, but it looks like the PlayStation VR2 will be a huge upgrade over Sony’s previous headset. Of course the visuals and performance have been greatly improved, but it is mainly PSVR2 Sense Controller that will make a huge difference. At least, that’s what a new video shows.
One of the new features of that controller is finger tracking. Yup, the controller can sense that you have fingers on the handle, so to speak. As you can see in the video below, the player makes gestures with his real hands, which are seamlessly translated into the gameplay in Horizon: Call of the Mountain. Looks insane, right?

Another feature that we don’t see at work is Eye Tracking. Although there are also a few nice applications for that. Imagine the setting turning into a horror game every time you blink? Or that you can select weapons simply by looking around?
