PSVR 2 comes with a USB-C cord that you can connect to PS5 to play your favorite PSVR 2 games. But how to switch from PSVR 2 games to PS5? 

Well, when you connect your PS VR2 to your TV, you will be able to access the Control Center in the middle of your gaming sessions. You can easily switch to PS5 games from PS VR 2 and vice versa via the Control Centre.

So it’s easier to switch between PS5 and PSVR 2 games using the Control Center. You can switch to any PS5 content using the Control Centre in between your play sessions.

You can also play PS5 games that are not natively supported on PSVR 2 on your headset by using the Cinematic Mode in PSVR 2. As long as the headset is on your head, you can play visuals on it normally on your TV. However, do note that playing PS5 games via your PSVR 2 won’t automatically convert them into VR games.
