Oculus’ standalone VR headset, the Oculus Go, is now available for purchase online or in store across Canada and a range of European territories.
The Oculus Go was previously only available in the United States, after an initial soft launch on May 1 this year. The wider release brings it to another 10 nations, across a total of over 300 stores worldwide.
The standalone VR headset offers a simplified alternative to the more advanced Oculus Rift headset, as a similarly-untethered headset for dedicated virtual reality experiences – whether that’s movies, shows, 360-degree tours, or interactive games.
It doesn’t have the room-scale sensors or processing might of the Rift, but is intended as a more price-accessible alternative for the average household, much in the vein of the Lenovo Mirage Solo.
So, where do I get it?
The Oculus Go price has been set at £200/£250 in the UK for 32GB and 64GB storage variants, or €219/€269 in nations across Europe.
