Last week we released the GameTyrant holiday gift guide that covered everything from gear to games that we suggest for the gamers in your inner circles. One section that deserves its own spotlight though is the virtual reality gamers because we all know that they are almost a different breed of gamers! Don’t worry though, we have the VR-focused guide right here for you and it covers VR gaming on both PC and PlayStation.

Gear

While there isn’t any new gear for PlayStation VR gamers to utilize, there is an adapter that Sony is providing for free so that new PlayStation 5 owners can have their PSVR headsets work on their new console. Otherwise, the gear is still equipped to work with the PlayStation 4, as it always has been. You can request the free adapter here. That said, here are our suggested virtual reality gear choices:

PSVR - $349 USD (Comes with all equipment and Marvel’s Iron Man)

Oculus Quest 2 - $299 USD

Games
