Held annually in San Francisco, Game Developers Conference has undeniably been a focal point for VR the industry, and as augmented reality continues to heat up, we expect it to be increasingly important for AR as well. When it comes to HTC, most everyone’s mind is on the Vive Pro. Photo by Road to VR. Vive Focus.

HTC has finally revealed the price of the Vive Pro : it will cost $799 just to have the headset (no controller and no base stations, so you must already have a Vive 1 kit) and will be available for pre-orders since April, 5th. But, as Road To VR has stated, maybe HTC should have clarified that in all its marketing material.

Revealed at the Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC), the Apple Vision Pro has sparked both praise and criticism from the global XR community. This could actually be quite beneficial for Meta, Microsoft, and Magic Leap. When you look at past technology that didn’t quite take off, it was because there wasn’t enough competition.
