DS2VR
for Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin · by DS2VR · released 5 Oct 2026

Game build and installation
The current Nexus release is DS2VR v1.0.6. It supports the Windows 64-bit Steam edition of Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin only. It does not support the original release, console versions or unsupported executable revisions. Install the supplied dinput8.dll next to DarkSoulsII.exe and play offline.
VR input and limits
The mod adds stereo, 6DoF head tracking, tracked hands/weapons and physical combat. The game still determines stamina, damage, timing and whether attacks connect. Optional DLSS/FSR and Neural Rendering are project features; their performance is not guaranteed across GPUs. The RTX 4090/Quest 3 report is one submitter's setup, not a benchmark. PCVR Central has not hardware-tested the mod.
