About This Hardware

VIVE Cosmos Elite is built for precision gaming. It comes paired with the VIVE Cosmos External Tracking Faceplate, which enables 360-degree, sub-millimeter SteamVR™️ Tracking accuracy. The system provides the flexibility of modular faceplate technology for future VR and AR solutions.

See the virtual world through 2880 x 1700 combined pixel resolution—an 88% increase over the original VIVE. All-new LCD panels reduce the distance between pixels, minimizing the screen-door effect.

Rich stereo audio is integrated into on-ear, form-fitting headphones. Experience great sound during extended VR sessions.

Go easily between reality and virtual reality with the one-of-a-kind, flip-up headset design. A crown fit makes putting on the headset quick and easy. Suits a wide range of face shapes, vision types, and even fits over glasses. Made with easy-to-clean materials to simplify headset upkeep.

The system comes with two SteamVR™ 1.0 base stations and two VIVE controllers. It also supports accessories, such as the VIVE Trackers* for full-body tracking and the VIVE Wireless Adapter* for untethered gameplay.

For owners of an original VIVE, you can upgrade to the VIVE Cosmos Elite headset-only option that works with your existing base stations, version 1.0 or 2.0, and VIVE or VIVE Pro controllers.

Discover customizable gaming with VIVE Cosmos Elite and VIVE accessories.
