Sony Interactive Entertainment boss Jim Ryan during the Sony CES 2021 press conference this week officially announced the next-generation VR headset from PlayStation will be called PlayStation VR 2 and the controllers will be called PlayStation VR Sense Controllers.

XboxEra co-founder Nick Baker, who has leaked gaming news before, has said he heard Sony and Valve have worked out a deal to release Half-Life: Alyx on PSVR2. However, he doesn't know when the current PC exclusive would get a release on PSVR2.

PlayStation VR2 has new sensory features, enhanced controls tracking, upgraded visual fidelity, eye tracking, and responsive feedback. It will also supports 4K HDR, foveated rendering, and an expanded field of view.

Half - Life : Alyx on PSVR2 really is one of those win win situations where both sides and VR itself benefits.

That'd be awesome! Bring in even more sales, interest, and excitement for the Half-Life franchise. Valve was probably waiting for PSVR2 to release before considering bringing Alyx to the platform.

Honestly I’m more surprised they haven’t done this sooner.

PSVR most likely just didn't have the hardware to run the game properly. It would definitely look amazing on PSVR 2, though!
