Wondering about the PSVR 2 controller charge time? We have got you covered!

The release of the PSVR 2 has been highly anticipated by gamers all over the world. As with any new gaming technology, players are eager to know all the details about the PlayStation VR 2, including the Sense controllers' battery life and charging time.

In this article, we will delve into the PSVR 2 controller charge time and explore how long it takes to fully charge these innovative controllers.

PSVR 2 controller charge time

The PSVR 2 controller charge time is approximately 1.5 hours. That means it takes around an hour and a half to charge your Sense controllers from absolute zero to 100% of their capacity.

Once your PSVR 2 controllers are fully charged, you can expect between 3-4 hours of battery life. Given that VR gaming sessions are typically shorter than flat-screen sessions, 4 hours is not too bad.

How to charge the PSVR 2 Sense controllers

You can choose to charge your PSVR 2 Sense controllers using either two USB-to-USB-C cables or a Sense controller charging station. The charging time is almost the same for both methods, but if you have a Sense controller charging station, it's better to use it.

Since the PSVR2 comes with one USB charging cable to connect your controllers to the PS5, you will have to use your DualSense charging cable to charge the two Sense controllers simultaneously.

How to charge the PSVR 2 Sense controllers using USB cables

  • Plug both controllers into two of the three PS5 USB-A ports.
  • Then leave your console on or in rest mode.
  • Unplug the controllers when the status indicators turn off.

How to charge the PSVR 2 Sense controllers using the charging station

  • Plug the AC adaptor into an outlet.
  • Attach charging adaptors to the Sense controllers' USB-C slots.
  • Attach each of the controllers to the charging station.
  • Unplug the controllers when the status indicators turn off.

It is worth mentioning that you can't use your PSVR 2 Sense controller while it's charging. You have to wait for the controllers to get fully charged (around 1.5 hours) to enjoy the amazing titles in the PSVR 2 games list.
