The Oculus Rift, a 3D virtual headset that was successfully funded on Kickstarter last year, is still playing around with a release date, as one hasn’t been formally announced. However, the team has confirmed that the device will be compatible with new devices – in this case, Android-based ones.
During an announcement at the GamesBeat 2013 video game conference, chief executive officer Brendan Iribe confirmed the move, stating that the company wants to launch a separate mobile headset in conjunction with the PC one, “as close as possible to” each other. It will be a smaller version that specifically utilizes the mobile device’s processor.
No word yet if the Android version of Oculus will launch as the same time as the PC one.
