Only hope for that imo is adding a lighthouse tracker to the headset. If people were to try and mod it, it would require writing a SLAM inside out tracking algorithm and that’s no trivial feature. Although if the community came together and made an open source one for it then that would be incredible and super positive for VR in general.
Imagine someone will. If follows same intial protocols DeVs like iVRy can likely add support easily enough on a base level.

I have made my first review of Pimax 8K X and you can find it on RoadTOVR
under the article “PlayStation VR 2 Finally Revealed in First Images” under Fabrizio name
The review is quite good, i am not sure if you can read this
so let me Know…
because a more detailed review will be on this forum next month
Awesome Fabrizio looks good. I have copied it and pasted below
I do not agree with many opinions i am reading
VR is a revolution because you are inside the game
You can’t have the same experience playing with a PC/Console and 65 inch TV as monitor
You can’t have the same experience playing with a PC/Console and a Cinema projector
The whole world you see is 3D
This means you see all the details of objects that are near while far objects show low details as in the real world, the floor in VR is where is your floor, Also audio is 3D and at 360 degrees
If you want to improve the experience there is locomotion and other accessories
VR Headset Pimax 8K X
My PC is 10850 K + 3080TI and 16 Giga Ram,
PRO
Headset : Good Plastic, no breaks
Comfort: No Eyestrain , No marks on my forehead
Resolution: no issues with frame rate and High Resolution
(I do not see pixels),
Colours are good,
Tracking is good: using Two towers for basestations.
I play at 75 Hz , but 90 Hz works and works also 114 Hz in Upscaling
No Distortions at Normal FOV
MIXED
SweetSpot: with only few Horizontal degree more this could be the definitive VR headset . I wear glasses, so maybe users without glasses will experience a better sweetspot than me
Pimax 8K X is not Plug and Play: While first setup with Pitool 271 (Alfa version - It’is second version- I recommend it ) went perfect you will have many issues with pitool and you have to discover some workarounds to avoid or reduce them and then fast solve these issues when happens to begin playing
Ultimately i believe these issues are the combination of bad pitool/firmware programming, incorrect operation of the user and the fact that games are not made for Pimax But for example Last time i played Pimax 8K X was Plug and Play
I have moved the issue from BAD to MIXED because on the other end of the scale Pitool have many tools
BAD
If you move your head fast in a direction then in the opposite direction all your VR world shake. While you play this do not happens. Sometimes you have this issue in a mild form and you have to quiet your head movement
Nice preview. Looking forward to your follow up.

I’ve not pre ordered PSVR2 but will wait for it to appear on Amazon. I already have a PS5 and GT7 so only the headset to pay for.
Got my PS5 Horizons bundle and got screwed on the Horizons game. Bought mine on Amazon USA and found out I can’t use the Hoirizons code because of locked regions for the code. Damn Sony!! I wanted the game for VR and now need to buy it because the voucher code doesnt work in my country, that’s just bad. But oh well, other than that everything is fine
Same here, the sony website doesnt accept American Express so I don’t have any other option than to wait. Sony sure makes things difficult for their customers. But yeah, let’s hope Amazon has the VR headset soon.
Ah so, if anyone based in the USA wants to buy my Horizons voucher for half price of the game, send me a message.
That’s unfortunate. I’m sure someone will take it off your hands. I’ve never played Horizon and it looks spectacular in VR.
Yeah I basically wanted the PS5 because of Resident Evil Village (and damn it already looks stunning on my TV!) but Horizons surely was the runner up, looks stunning indeed, looking forward to playing those 2 games.
The VR mod for it, on PC, is pretty great.
Nah I personally can’t stand it because of the cut scenes. Instant puke fest when those appear. I hope that they fixed that in the native version or at least found some way to reduce that nauseating 3rd person effect. But yeah it looks great otherwise though.
Huge fan of the original game. Been waiting for next gen OLED to try the VR versions so keen for your impressions!
Just upgraded from note 9 to the S23 Ultra. Colors and black levels are to die for. 120hz is butter smooth and the brightness 1750 nits. Can’t believe nobody’s jammed one of these panels into a headset!
Nice! Actually I feel some excitement for VR again, haven’t felt that in a while. The PSVR2 seems to be quite good and finally we’ll be getting some titles worth playing!
