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.
