Humanity supports both the PlayStation VR1 and PlayStation VR2. If you can’t seem to play this puzzle platformer in virtual reality on the PS4 and PS5 consoles, then you can check out this troubleshooting article from Seeking Tech.
1. Before we begin, it is important to note that you can only play the PlayStation 4 version of Humanity in virtual reality with the PlayStation VR1 headset. To play the PS5 version of the same game in VR, you will need the PS VR2.
So, if you are playing on a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 4 Pro, make sure you launch into the game with your PlayStation VR1 headset connected and turned on.
For the PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 5 Digital Edition, you need to make sure you have the PS5 version of the game downloaded. You can tell by going to the home screen of your console, which you can do by pressing and holding the PS logo button on the DualSense. From there, move the cursor to the Humanity icon to see if it has the PS5 label. If it has a PS4 label, then you need to delete it and then download the PS5 version from the PlayStation Store.
After making sure that you have the PS5 version, open the game with the PlayStation VR2 headset connected and turned on.
Keep in mind that you can also play the PS4 version of Humanity in virtual reality on the PlayStation 5 console thanks to backwards compatibility. In order to do so, you need to connect the PSVR1 headset with the PlayStation Camera adaptor for PS5 before starting the game.
2. Even with the correct VR headset connected, the game will boot up in big screen mode with the graphics looking flat when you look through the lenses of your PlayStation VR or PlayStation VR2.
In order to enable the VR mode in Humanity, you need to select Enter VR Mode from the title screen.
If you are currently playing the game, then you need to open the pause menu and then quit back to the title screen to turn on the virtual reality mode.
3. You should be able to tell immediately once you activate VR in Humanity as you should no longer see any borders. Not to mention that the graphics will be displayed in stereoscopic 3D.
