It was just shy of a year ago today that Sony first announced the (then-unnamed) PlayStation VR2. Today, the company showed off the first photos of the upcoming PS5-compatible headset's design, highlighting a number of aesthetic and functional changes over 2016's original PSVR.

In a blog post Tuesday morning, Sony confirmed that the PSVR2 will mimic the general ergonomics and balancing of the first PSVR. That means an adjustable headband that tucks under the back of the skull and around to the front of the forehead, offering a base for an adjustable scope area that hangs down in front of the eyes. We called that design "exceedingly comfortable" when we reviewed the first PSVR back in 2016, so we're glad Sony hasn't messed with those ergonomics too much this time around.

As far as significant design changes, the PSVR2 will now offer a lens adjustment dial that can slide each lens side to side in order to match the player's interpupillary distance. Getting a good match there can be key to providing a sharp focus and preventing eye strain and motion sickness in VR, which is why such lens sliders have been a common feature on headsets like the Oculus Rift and Quest for years now.
