When playing a PS5 game in PlayStation VR2, you may notice that the lens will eventually fog up. To see how you can prevent condensation from getting inside the virtual reality headset, you can take a look at this guide from Seeking Tech.
1. It is important to note that the PlayStation VR2 features vents located at the top of the scope. Along with a built-in fan, these vents help add air circulation when you are wearing the headset, which should prevent condensation from building up. Due to these new features, the PS VR2 is better equipped at handling fogging when compared to the original PS VR1.
So, for the first potential solution, you should make sure that the vents aren’t covered up. If it looks dusty, then you need to clean it so that there won’t be any moisture build up.
2. We also recommend having a fan blow directly to your face. By doing so, you will be able to keep your body cool, which means less sweating during the more intensive sessions. Of course, the fan should also add more air circulation to the headset as well.
Another major benefit of using a fan is that it should help with motion sickness. If you are new to VR gaming or haven’t played with a virtual reality headset in a long time, then you will need to build up your tolerance level. Using a fan should keep your mind situated to the real world, which should help with preventing nausea.
3. Furthermore, we suggest that you wear a headband or other head wear that will absorb the sweat from your forehead. If you don’t then the sweat could end up dripping down and into the headset, which will cause the VR screen to fog up quickly.
A headband you should prevent any temporary marks on your forehead that you may get from wearing the PlayStation VR2 headset.
4. It is a good idea to take frequent breaks when playing the PlayStation VR2 during long gaming sessions.
When taking a break, we recommend that you take off the headset so that it can get more airflow. You should also wipe the sweat from your face and/or headset to prevent any potential fogging when you resume your gaming session.
