CCP Games today announced that the consumer testing program for VR game EVE: Valkyrie will enter the alpha phase on January 18th. In order to celebrate this announcement, CCP Games has released three new screenshots for EVE: Valkyrie that can be viewed below.
Owners of the Oculus Rift DK2 headset who are interested in testing the game can sign up here. New players will be admitted in waves starting before the first test.
EVE: Valkyrie is described as an award-winning, highly anticipated multiplayer dogfighting shooter that has been built from the ground up to harness the very latest advances in virtual reality technology. It is an accessible and immersive experience that fulfills the fantasy and thrill of being a spaceship pilot in the midst of combat.
Enjoy!

$800 for Oculus Rift for people in Europe … brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr 🙁
Palmer quote: “VR will become something everyone wants before it becomes something everyone can afford” suddenly got a new meaning for me. I though it pointed towards the high-end system requirements, only to unfold that it really meant the price of the headset itself 🙁 F* Palmer!
Wasn’t it $700? Not much better but slightly better…
It sucks as hell, though… PS VR has power of a console and it costs less.
No, it’s 743 euros with shipping included. That’s roughly $800 which is well over the 200-400 dollar statement he made earlier along with comments like “we aim to make it as cheap as possible” and “facebook acquisition will help us bring the price of the rift down” Loads of bulls*it! I’ll sincerely wait to see what Valve and HTC will bring.
I dont care about the price.
Then just go and pre-order it mr gender faker.
Heh, NO I meant this VR thing is over priced!
Am sure it’ll be supported, but not natively… for that you’ll need HTC Vive.
Throw your entire wallet into Rift ™.
Can’t wait to play this in May.
Pre-ordered my Rift this morning. I will be playing Valkyrie, Lucky’s Tale and tons of other games just in time for my birthday in April. Psyched!
Pre-ordered mines as well. I really can’t wait to begin VR gaming in May!
