Users can push and pull the PSVR 2 faceplate toward or away from their face through a button on top of the faceplate, and tighten it using a dial on the band’s rear. Some of the holdovers from the original headset include the circular halo band. Once it’s on your head, the PSVR 2’s weight distribution feels a bit more even as well. It also shed some weight, coming in at a noticeably lighter 560 grams compared to the PSVR’s 600 grams. The PSVR 2 really looks cool sitting alongside the PS5. Like other PS5 accessories, the design philosophy takes inspiration from the console itself - meaning it sports a sleek white-and-black aesthetic featuring some abstract angles. Having four cameras on the headset also removes the need for an external camera. Users literally have to just plug the earbuds into the PSVR 2’s audio port and the headset itself into the PS5’s USB-C port. Simplicity is the name of the game with the PSVR 2. That’s pretty much it - no processor box, PlayStation camera, power plug or extra HDMI configuration needed. Alongside the headset and controllers, you’ll find a single USB-C charge cable alongside instructional booklets and wired earbuds in the box. A bit more streamlined than the original, the packaging also serves as a case for both the headset and Sense controllers. That way you never have to worry about whether your saves are correct or not.The PSVR 2 improves on every aspect of the original PSVR, and it all begins with the box. When you reinstall an app that has a cloud backup, those backed-up files will be automatically downloaded to your Oculus Quest during the installation process. That's why it's important to ensure that your apps or games have their saved files backed up by following the tutorial in the section above. But not all apps and games support cloud save just yet. Oculus cloud saves work by backing up this saved data to your Oculus account, thereby allowing you to freely uninstall titles without worrying about losing your progress. That means, when you uninstall a game or app, the entire folder of files gets removed, including any saved game progress or files.


When you make progress in a game or save files in an app on the Oculus Quest or Oculus Quest 2, those save files are located in the same place the game or app resides.

This means that if you've made lots of progress in a game that doesn't support cloud saves, uninstalling that game will result in your game saves also being deleted. Otherwise, you'll still end up losing all app data associated with these titles, including save files since save files are tied to the game files on Quest. If you're looking to free up space on your Oculus Quest, make sure you only uninstall apps or games that support cloud backup.
