I was just wondering if anyone had whatever news, clues, or ideas when or if WMR or other HMDs could be coming to Xbox? Many fans, including myself, are just straight up tired of waiting and have sold their Xboxs to go to PSVR to go their VR set up instead of opting for PC which can be costly.

While VR fans might be abandoning Xbox for Sony'south PlayStation VR, the fact remains that traction in VR as a whole hasn't been that exciting. Despite price cuts, new tech, and a modest amount of support on Steam, VR is nevertheless far from what I'd consider mainstream. While I was initially excited by the possibilities of my Windows Mixed Reality headset, recently it has been languishing in the drawer. Setting it upwardly, dealing with all the cables, jumping through the "Cliff's House" VR space to load up Steam is merely too clunky and awkward for me to bother with, and the trade offs simply aren't worth the endeavor for me. You might feel differently though.

Practise you want to get WMR on Xbox 1? Hit the forum thread and allow us know.
