        We don’t know. Sony added open source Linux drivers for their gamepads so I guess it’s not completely out of the question.

          Ah ok then it sounds pretty out of context from the previous comment, unless I’m missing something.

          Open drivers would be nice though, of course.

      Linux compatibility will be my question as well. If I’m forced to sign up with PSN I’m out LOL

      Hopefully it just functions as a standalone headset and doesn’t need any proprietary software…

        I’m encouraged by the facts that Sony’s game controller linux driver works with no signup, and that this announcement mentions needing a Steam account but says nothing about a PSN account.

        This is disappointing, though:

        some key features, like HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback (other than rumble), are not available when playing on PC.
