In today&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.playstation.com\/2023\/01\/19\/playstation-vr2-13-new-titles-and-launch-lineup-revealed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PlayStation blog<\/a>, Sony highlights the full launch lineup for the PlayStation VR 2 headset, including a few games newly confirmed for the hardware.<\/p>\n<p>The launch lineup, as Sony lays it out, includes a bevy of titles arriving either on February 22 or within a month after launch. Sony&#8217;s tracking more than 30 games to arrive through March, with familiar names like\u00a0<em>Horizon<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Resident Evil<\/em>, and\u00a0<em>Gran Turismo\u00a0<\/em>on track. Others, like\u00a0<em>Tetris Effect<\/em>, were already VR standards, and will need an additional purchase to upgrade to its PS VR 2 version. Others will have free upgrade options, or like\u00a0<em>Gran Turismo 7<\/em>, be included with the PS5 version of the game.<\/p>\n<p>Among today&#8217;s newly announced titles for PS VR 2 are some neat surprises, too. 2021&#8217;s hidden gem\u00a0<em>Before Your Eyes\u00a0<\/em>will be making its way to Sony&#8217;s VR platform, and is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/before-your-eyes-is-a-must-play-game-opinion-indies-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">100% worth your time<\/a>. There&#8217;s also\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/the-last-clockwinder-automation-virtual-reality-summer-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Last Clockwinder<\/em><\/a>, an automation game that uses recording of your own actions to create assembly lines. It seems pretty neat!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_358861\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-358861\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-358861\" src=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/PSVR2_Lineup_011923.jpg?resize=640%2C360\" alt=\"PlayStation VR 2\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-358861\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image via Sony<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Tack on some first-party experiences and, of course, an extremely tall Lady Dimitrescu, and Sony&#8217;s launch lineup seems alright. Virtual reality is in a strange place at the moment, with many PC headsets moving towards more premium (and pricier) hardware. Maybe PS VR 2 can split the difference, especially for those who already have a PlayStation 5 in their home.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the full launch lineup, arriving either at launch or within the window, with some subject to change. PlayStation VR 2 goes live on February 22 for $549.99.<\/p>\n<h2>PlayStation VR 2 launch window lineup<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><em>After the Fall<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Altair Breaker<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Before Your Eyes<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Cities VR<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Cosmonious High<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Creed: Rise to Glory \u2013 Championship Edition<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>The Dark Pictures: Switchback<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Demeo<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Dyschronia: Chronos Alternate<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Fantavision 202X<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Gran Turismo 7<\/em> (Free update to PS5 version of <em>GT7<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><em>Horizon Call of the Mountain<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Job Simulator<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Jurassic World Aftermath<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Kayak VR: Mirage<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Kizuna AI \u2013 Touch the Beat!<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>The Last Clockwinder<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>The Light Brigade<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Moss 1 &amp;
