Now you know what to look for, it’s time to put your knowledge to the test. Here is a list of the best VR headsets for gaming that you can purchase right now.

Probably one of the best VR headsets and most popular in the mainstream market, the Oculus Quest 2 is the one to buy if you’re looking for the top of the range. This headset is wireless and doubles as a PC VR headset. To use it, you must simply log into Facebook to connect. It’s fast and fairly small which is convenient. The resolution is also amazing and a huge step up from the original Oculus Quest. This is our safest bet, with an easy setup and without a crazy price tag.

If you’re looking for the best PC VR experience, Valve Index is our recommendation. This headset comes at a high price point but the fast refresh rate and the advanced grip controllers offer a smooth, immersive experience. The audio features an extremely wide field-of-view are some more reasons why the Valve Index makes our top five. However, it is not wireless, and has mix and match hardware, although it is compatible with the HTC Vive.

Sony PlayStation VR is one of the best VR headsets if a cheap and compatible console is what you’re looking for. It works with most PS4 controllers like the DualShock and Move and there is a wealth of games available for you to play. The accessibility of this device does mean that it lacks resolution and the controllers aren’t as capable or comfortable as other controllers. Despite this, you still get a great immersive experience and all you need is the PSVR, a PS4 and your best gaming skills and you’re good to go!

The newest headset from HP, HP Reverb G2 can’t be beaten for its super sharp high-resolution display. Best known for its image quality, supreme audio and comfortable design, this VR headset ticks a lot of boxes. The headset is lightweight and the speakers are drop-down. The only downside we can point out with this headset is the controllers. The controllers are quite large and bulky and can therefore impede on the smooth VR experience that is desired.

The updated version of the Vive headset, HTC Vive Cosmos is one of the more expensive but also more advanced VR headsets. The system is perfect for whole-room VR, which is complemented by outward-facing cameras for motion tracking and external base stations. This allows for mixed reality which extends your experience from typical VR to another dimension. The accessories can be mixed and matched with Vive and Valve index which is also handy!
