After previously confirming a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.uploadvr.com\/into-black-details-playstation-vr2-port-full-visual-overhaul\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PlayStation VR2 port<\/a> with a \u201cfull visual overhaul,\u201d the studio advised it&#8217;s now arriving this month alongside a newly announced SteamVR edition.

This includes real-time shadows,\u00a0remastered cave environments with \u201cmuch higher geometric density,\u201d and more. Similar enhancements are promised on the Steam page, which also mentions control over the render scale.<\/p>\n<p>With performance, Into Black now joins the list of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uploadvr.com\/every-playstation-vr2-game-with-ps5-pro-enhancements\/\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">PlayStation VR2 games with PS5 Pro enhancements<\/a>.

Support for eye-tracked foveated rendering is also confirmed, alongside haptic feedback support across your headset and controllers. <\/p>\n<p>Since arriving on Quest last October, Into Black had seen numerous post-launch patches up until January&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uploadvr.com\/into-black-playstation-vr2-update-1-5-localization\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">localization update<\/a> with support for several new languages.
