Possibly MS wants Oculus to deal with all the hardware, MS lets Oculus make the S work with the next xbox, MS now have VR on the machine at a vastly cheaper solution than developing their own, Oculus get access to the console market, plus there could be more in it than just that, the supposed collaboration might also incorporate the work MS were doing on their own VR before the put it on hiatus, but come September we will know, but i for one would love VR on the next xbox, i would then ditch the PS4 Pro and PSVR in a heartbeat if you give me Forza in vr. 😉....

Why on earth would Microsoft do this when they already have WVR devices for the job?

^^It gets even better than that, MS have begain to merged Xbox and PC gaming together, so unike the PSVR which is tethered to the PS4 only, the Rift S could be used on two formats, Xbox Scarlett and PC, so we might get to the stage were we have crossplay and buy for VR stuff between the PC and xbox scarlett, as we have right now between the PC and the xbox one, so come 2020 you might be enjoy Forza 8 on your PC on your CV1, while your better half runs you off the road while on the xbox scarlett via a Rift S....talk about a win right there. lol
