Oculus Rift pre-orders begin January 6

Oculus Rift consumer version

The promise of a finished Oculus Rift will be revealed back in May.

At 6PM on the day, Rift CEO Palmer Luckey will take to Reddit for an AMA to resolve any lingering questions (and, I'll wager, to explain why the Oculus site crashed).

As I've reported before, all headsets will be bundled with Lucky's Tale, which Wes described as being a defining use of the new technology.

Update: Palmer Luckey has added some details to this story on Twitter, saying that Touch controller pre-order. Luckey also refers to the Rift price as "subsidized."
