Not sure how this would fit for what we do with high end PC gaming though.

According to uploadvr.com it will even be out later this year.

Like I said. First half 2018 iteration 2 of the current Vive and Rift should be expected.

 

Cant wait:)

Not sure that will actually qualify for a high end Rift replacement, which was tentatively announced for early 2019. Going to be interesting to see how all this shakes out. 

I think FB/Oculus is working on capturing a much larger portion of the overall VR market.

It is aiming at another market share. You cannot play IL-2 nor current PC games on these new headsets.

What PC gamers want to look for is Rift CV2 / Vive 2 in the end of 2018, in 12-18 months.
