After a lot of waiting and distribution of dev kits to developers, Oculus have finally announced in a blog post that they're preparing to start taking pre-orders for the release version of their virtual reality headset.



The day in question will be this Wednesday, the 6th of January at around 8am Pacific it's estimated. There's been no confirmed price or shipping date for the headsets in the post unfortunately, but the post has said that they'll be revealed on the 6th as well. It also confirms the two pre-order games it will come with: EVE: Valkyrie an N64-style platformer game, Lucky's Tale.



The CEO of Oculus, Palmer Luckey will also be doing a Reddit AMA on the same date to answer questions from gamers and also to do some general PR. A link will be made public closer to the time. There's also been some hints from him that shipping might come during Q1 of 2016, although the Oculus Touch hardware has been confirmed to be delayed until the second half of the year.



Are you interested yet? Do you think that the Rift will win the VR race this time round or will it fall behind now that competition has emerged?
