Oculus VR is set to announce more details on the Oculus Rift in the coming weeks. These details will include more info on the hardware, software, games and more.

It will be interesting to see if the Oculus Rift can help bring VR gaming to the mainstream. The video game industry has wanted to do “virtual reality” for years but the technology wasn’t good enough. 2016 will also see the release of Sony’s Project Morpheus headset too.
