Which VR Headset for F1 2022?
Hello, I think of getting a VR Headset just for this game. My questions: Which are supported? all of them? I read something about HTC Vive, Ocolus Rift, Quest 2, Valve Index Which one to g...
If you have the hardware for it, the best sim racing headsets are currently considered to be the HP Reverb G1, HP Reverb G2, Pimax 8K X, and Varjo Aero. None of them are currently listed as being supported, but most every one is fairly certain that they'll be compatible since they all run SteamVR.
How much power you need for any of those, is more than currently exists. Can you run sims with maxed frame rates with existing hardware? Sure, but there are always compromises, even if it's just super sampling. That said, high end CPU & GPU's will give you an incredible experience with good graphical fidelity. If you have lower end hardware, then you might want to consider a lower end headset such as the Quest 2 or Index.
In the last dev deep dive Lee Mather mentioned that the headsets listed on steam are the only ones they tested. The G2 should work I think, but it isn't guaranteed by Codemasters. I think that it will work because the Index and G2 both work via SteamVR.
