Maximum PC: It's been over two years since Oculus Rift captured the hearts and imagination (and over $2.4 million) of backers willing to pledge support for something billed as the "the first truly immersive virtual reality headset for video games." There's been a lot of movement in the VR space since then, as well as some skepticism (and anger) after Facebook acquired Oculus for $2 billion -- the idea of Candy Crush VR just didn't seem appealing to many folks. But the excitement remained, and after all this time, we finally have a launch date. Oculus Rift will be shipping to consumers in the first quarter of next year, Oculus VR announced today.
Daily Video Game writes: "The online retailer Amazon is offering 25% off on Oculus Rift S PC-Powered VR Gaming Headset. If you’re looking for a new VR headset, make sure to take advantage of this deal!"
Files in Oculus’ PC application have revealed the name of the next VR headset to succeed the Oculus Rift, the RIFT S.
Both Dash and Home have seen makeovers.
