Last week, Sony shared a pair of teardown videos for its forthcoming PlayStation VR2 and its Sense controllers. The clips see PS VR2 hardware engineers Takamasa Araki and Takeshi Igarashi offer an in depth preview of the internal structure and design philosophy behind the new virtual reality products.

PlayStation VR2 is due to launch on Wednesday (February 22), priced at £529.99 ($549.99). The product includes the PS VR2 headset, the PS VR2 Sense controllers and stereo headphones.

Unity previously said that the upcoming PS VR2 would take virtual reality gaming “to a whole new level” while “allowing players to immerse themselves into game worlds like never before”.

This week, Ozzy Osbourne became a gamer in a new advert for the new headset. The advert, focusing on upcoming PSVR 2 game Horizon Call Of The Mountain, sees Ozzy getting to grips with the new technology, with a cameo from wife Sharon.
