Virtual reality technology company Oculus VR announced that it will begin accepting preorders for its long-awaited Oculus Rift headset beginning Wednesday, January 6th, at 8 a.m. Pacific time.
The Facebook-owned company hasn't released any pricing details yet, but the blog post that the preorder was announced on mentioned that information will be available on "everything you need to know to order your Rift on Wednesday when pre-orders go live."
Each Oculus Rift will ship with two games, Lucky's Tale and EVE: Valkyrie (demoed below). The package also comes with an Xbox One wireless controller.
Oculus is also developing its own handheld dual controller, called Touch, that will further immerse the player in the virtual reality environment. Touch controllers aren't expected until sometime in the second half of 2016.
Oculus founder Palmer Luckey will be answering questions in a Reddit AMA on Wednesday at 6 p.m. Pacific time.
