The wait for an Oculus Rift VR headset is almost over. Almost.
In a post published on the Oculus Blog, the team behind the Oculus Rift announced its first consumer virtual-reality headset will ship to consumers in the first quarter of 2016.
Pre-orders for the VR headset will start later this year, and a few dark and mysterious photos of the headset were posted along with the announcement.
According to the Oculus blog, the headset will be based on the Crescent Bay prototype, which means there will be 360-degree positional tracking features on the headset.
The blog post says the tracking system in the first-generation consumer VR headset will improve upon the tracking system featured in Crescent Bay.
