I've been waiting for Xbox to release a VR headset for years. PlayStation first joined the market all the way back in 2016 when it launched PSVR, and it's still one of the top dogs thanks to PSVR 2. Sony has pretty much been scoring open goals in the console VR market for almost a decade now because Microsoft won't meet it on the field, so I really thought we'd see an Xbox headset of some kind well before now. Yes, the wider best VR headset race is a pretty competitive one, but to me, Microsoft has always seemed a natural runner for it.
I mean, let's think about it. Microsoft makes Windows, it has a well-established gaming workforce through its Xbox studios and hardware teams, and if there's one thing Game Pass is missing compared to Steam and the PlayStation store, it's VR games. With such an increased emphasis on PC play from Xbox, doesn't VR seem like a natural next step to you?
