Get ready to hoist the Jolly Roger once more — Pirates VR: Jolly Roger, the swashbuckling adventure from VRKiwi and Split Light Studio, officially launches on PlayStation VR2 on May 15, 2025.
Already a fan-favorite on Steam VR, the high-seas pirate experience makes landfall on Sony’s next-gen headset with a boatload of upgrades designed to fully immerse players in its cursed Caribbean world.
A More Immersive Beginning
The PS VR2 version introduces an exclusive new intro sequence that sets the stage with a lively tavern scene — immersing players in the story before their boots even hit the sand. It's a cinematic touch designed to deepen the narrative experience.
Full Steam Ahead on Haptics
Harnessing the power of PlayStation VR2’s advanced tech, Pirates VR: Jolly Roger now features enhanced haptics across the headset and Sense controllers. Feel the thud of cannon fire, the clash of cutlasses, and even the resistance of adaptive triggers as you fend off cursed skeletons and explore ancient ruins.
Watch the brand new PS VR2 trailer now on YouTube, and prepare to join a crew of fellow adventurers via the official Pirates VR Discord.

And yes, your sarcastic parrot sidekick is along for the ride — offering hints, jokes, and plenty of bird-brained commentary.
