BHaptics Launches TactSuit Pro, a Next-Gen Full-Body VR Haptic Wearable for Ultimate Immersion
bHaptics, a pioneer in haptic technology from South Korea, has introduced the TactSuit Pro, its latest full-body VR wearable designed to deliver a premium haptic experience for users seeking deeper immersion in virtual reality content. With 32 advanced haptic motors embedded in the vest, the TactSuit Pro synchronizes with VR games to provide lifelike sensations such as feeling virtual hugs, explosions, or impacts, intensifying the sense of presence. The suit also includes expandable straps for a comfortable fit across various body types and features a new controller wheel for users to precisely adjust the intensity of haptic feedback on the fly. An integrated LED ring adds visual status feedback while enhancing the vest’s sleek look. This new model retails for $499 and supports over 270 VR titles across platforms like Quest, PSVR 2, and PC VR.
Innovative Features and Enhanced Comfort for VR Enthusiasts
The TactSuit Pro's standout innovation is the Controller Wheel located on the front of the vest. This allows real-time control over haptic intensity, enabling users to customize their experience seamlessly during gameplay. The suit’s 32 vibration motors provide a refined balance of detailed haptic feedback that is less bulky than some predecessors, yet rich enough to convey directional and dynamic sensations. Unlike the earlier TactSuit X40 model, which had 40 motors, this iteration focuses on optimized feedback quality. The vest is fully wireless to allow free movement and boasts compatibility with over 100 VR games, including popular titles such as Half-Life: Alyx, VRChat, and Beat Saber. The package also comes with a generous 13.5-hour battery life supporting extended play sessions.
Complementary Devices and Usage Scenarios
Alongside the TactSuit Pro, bHaptics has also launched two other products: the TactSuit Air, a lighter version with 16 motors priced at $249, and the TactSleeve, offering haptic feedback for the arms with three motors on each side, designed to enhance shooting or action sensations, priced at $199. These products appeal to different VR users depending on their need for lightweight design or full-body immersion. The TactSuit Pro and its accessories serve not only gamers but also professionals in training and simulation, where realistic touch feedback can enhance learning and operational readiness.
Pre-Order Availability and Additional Perks
bHaptics opened pre-orders for the TactSuit Pro and the accompanying products in November 2024, offering incentives including free shipping, exclusive game keys, and customizable badge rewards.

By elevating VR immersion through highly synchronized touch feedback, the bHaptics TactSuit Pro represents a significant advancement in haptic wearables, enriching virtual worlds with realistic and nuanced physical sensations.
