Welcome to my review of the Oculus Rift DK2 with Elite: Dangerous.

The Oculus Rift is a Virtual Reality headset, and Elite: Dangerous is a massive online game, still in beta at the time of my filming this.

Elite: Dangerous was clearly made with the Oculus Rift and VR in mind, as there are many little additions and changes to the game when you use the headset. Targeting is done by looking at the target rather than needing to point your ship right at it and menus pop up when you look in their direction, rather than needing to press a key.

The cockpit feels very genuine and the immersion is superb. E:D is definitely a great game with or without the Oculus Rift, but, there is no question: The Oculus Rift dramatically improves the game.

Yes, on the DK2, the resolution is a bit grainy, making small text hard to read at times, requiring you to lean in to read it, but, aside from reading text, I find myself completely forgetting about the grainy resolution. It is highly likely this will not be the case in the consumer edition of the Oculus Rift as well.

If you're interested in space combat, then this is a no-brainer!
