Oculus consumer beta could roll out as early as next April

The Oculus Rift’s second version is proving to be pretty popular, enough so that the company has had to cut off a supply flow of their development kit 2s to people who were selling on the hardware for a marked up price. A consumer release has yet to be officially announced, but some sources are suggesting that it could be as soon as mid-spring of next year.

 

Several places claim to have gotten hold of leaked copies of the VR company’s plan, which will manifest as a limited rollout in April 2015 so that Oculus can gauge the interest for the second version of their headset first before they release it to a wider audience. However that date isn’t a definite and the release could well be pushed back for a summer release instead.

 

Last week it was revealed that they wish to keep the price within the $200-$400 price range; that’s about £123-£245 for those of us in the UK. As of writing the dev kits are still available to purchase for around £215 or $350.
