Oculus Rift S PC VR Headset Set For GDC 2019 Reveal

An email sent to Oculus developers by Facebook suggests ‘Rift S’ will be formally revealed at GDC 2019.

UploadVR confirmed with multiple people the email mentions ‘Rift S’ alongside ‘Oculus Go’ and ‘Oculus Quest’. This suggests we should expect a formal announcement in the near future of the PC-based VR headset succeeding Oculus Rift.


And this all begins THIS MONDAY. Hopefully the rumor-mill will prove true this time.

Also note that Oculus is scheduled to be involved in at least 9 different sessions; you can get the full list of GDC here:

Ah didn't realize my bad. I will remove.

For a critical upgrade I'd want eye tracking, because then you can
have a wide FOV, using a single big screen instead of two screens,
without sacrificing pixel density, without requiring a huge GPU upgrade,
and without all the physical IPD slider hardware making things heavier
and more complicated then they should be.

As for what we're getting : I just hope it's not another child sized headset, like my toy CV1  🙂

Honestly I don't really care but why on god's green earth would you do this? Changing rules to allow this is one of the most bone headed decisions I have seen on a forum. No offence meant but it really pisses me of when people deliberately alter the meaning of my posts by miss quoting.

Edit after 3 hrs sleep last night am wondering if I missed sonething?
Fiat Coupe, gone. 350Z gone. Dirty nappies, no sleep & practical transport incoming. Thank goodness for VR 🙂

I'm like a kid waiting for Christmas! I hate the sensors and set up. I love using the rift but I find myself lately using my Playstation vr more and only using the rift only on weekends.
