Apple Vision Pro Could Soon Support PlayStation VR2's Controllers (www.uploadvr.com)

Apple and Sony are working to bring support for PlayStation VR2's controllers to Vision Pro, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reports. Gurman has a strong track record when it comes to reporting Apple's moves in advance, and he even revealed many details of Vision Pro itself before it was officially revealed or even acknowledged to exist by Apple. Apple Vision Pro's gaze-and-pinch interaction system is ideal for interface interaction, and its hand tracking is suitable for casual gaming. But many VR and mixed reality games and interactive experiences on other platforms require physical controllers.

To bring this kind of content to visionOS, Apple approached Sony earlier this year to bring support for PlayStation VR2's Sense controllers to Vision Pro, Gurman reports. This would also include support for navigating the visionOS interfaces.

Sony currently doesn't sell the PS VR2 Sense controllers separately, not even for replacements, but when this support launches it would start to, including at Apple Stores and from Apple's website.

Big if true, next thing would be for valve to make a steam link app like on quest. This would make me go from not giving a sh about the vision pro to wanting one real bad just for the displays.

Virtual desktop or steam link with solid playspace boundaries and these controllers. This would be an easy buy for me.
