The Oculus Rift has been one of the most intriguing projects as time has gone on, and with E3 just passing for the company, they revealed some major news surrounding consumer production for the platform.
In a release sent to Examiner.com today, Oculus Rift has revealed that they have secured $16 million in Series A funding. This was co-led by Spark Capital and Matrix Partners, while Santo Politi and Antonio Rodriguez have joined the company's board of directors.
Morels: Homestead, a relaxing game in which you can create your own unique homestead, is available now for PC VR.
Electronic Arts has confirmed that while F1 23 will support PC VR it will not support PSVR 2 on PlayStation 5.
That's fine. GT7 would overshadow it anyway at it has open wheel and regular cars.
Should have been spending their time updating Squadrons with better resolution, frame rate, haptics, etc as there isn't a game like that on PS VR 2 yet.
But it's EA. They don't think.
A wasted opportunity, but I don't buy EA / Codemasters stuff anyway. Grid Legends just came out on Plus and I haven't touched it. Why would I when I have GT7 and PSVR2?
That's where opportunity presents itself that they could offer something else that other developers haven't offered yet. Yeah. There's No Man's Sky. But a space game with a story would be great. Like the old days with Colony Wars.
Exactly, they could have possibly lured more players just from the inclusion of a vr mode.
I miss Colony wars and G-Police, Low-Fi I hope will scratch that itch when it releases. We also need a vr War/Starhawk game.
Here's a forgotten VR gem for you from 2019. Epic Games' action-packed Robo Recall, which is also available for Quest 2.
Although I never owned an oculus, I played the demo for this at an electronics store. Pretty impressive in an early goings of VR title.
nice i am interested in this. if the price point is good. it's mine.
I want to try it so bad, I hope they start having demo units at Best Buy soon for people to try out.
The articles that I read (which included direct quotes from the Oculus CEO) explicitly stated that the funding is for R&D, NOT for speeding up consumer production. Misleading, inaccurate headline.
