Possibly, but one theory Paul Thurrott floated is that these upcoming mixed reality headsets could be used for VR on Project Scorpio on launch day, then the mixed reality capability will come later via an over-the-air update in 2018. The future Xbox is set to get “mixed reality” in 2018, but the console is also supposed to be capable of virtual reality (VR) at launch. Will Scorpio owners be waiting until 2018 to get VR and mixed reality via third-party headsets? What’s even less clear is how virtual reality and mixed reality will roll out to Project Scorpio. It’s not clear if the devices will be available on day one, however. The headsets are expected to be publicly available later in 2017, once the Creators Update rolls out this spring.

It stands as slightly odd, given how Microsoft has an entire division dedicated to creating Mixed. Microsoft said in January that early versions of mixed reality headsets would ship to developers in March. Sadly, the Xbox One console platform across both the S and X do not support any form of VR. Early versions of that headset are rolling out to developers soon. And all other things like it costing Sony less for those same deals, all still partially the result of self-inflicted wounds of Microsoft/Xbox for not selling the value of their console to the larger market better than they did.Also during GDC, Microsoft introduced Acer’s mixed reality headset. popular platforms to choose from: Sony PlayStation, Microsoft Xbox, and the personal computer (PC). Being so overzealous in mandating Game Pass with 3P exclusivity & marketing deals, something they did not have to do, but felt was a requirement. In many cases, especially with inexpensive headsets.

I think the point is, there was nothing 3P-wise at the PlayStation Showcase that collectively looked like it'd of been enough to make someone like Phil Spencer say PS's deals make it 'hard for Xbox to be Xbox' publicly, the way he did, when a lot of the 3P content announced was multiplat and most of which that aren't, Microsoft have functionally similar console exclusives of themselves.Īnd we know it couldn't just be about marketing deals, as again, that's a self-inflicted wound on MS's part. Get started building WMR apps by reviewing the official developer documentation. Or maybe he is simply feigning frustration to play up a 'woe ist me' image.

But that's 'just' more FF, I don't think that alone would make Phil frustrated enough to say what he said in the X-Cast interview. Good newsseveral Xbox One accessories such as controllers and headsets are compatible with Xbox Series XS. Despite the fact the Xbox Series X or S hasnt shipped with VR, there might be a glimmer of VR hope, data-mined from the insides of Microsoft. We don't know if FF VII Rebirth is coming this year it most likely isn't. Source: Microsoft (Image credit: Source: Microsoft). Microsoft prevented themselves on that one. Sony didn't prevent MS from making a VR headset or even officiating/whitelisting a 3P headset for Xbox. PSVR2 exclusive content for RE4R also wouldn't make someone like Phil Spencer basically say that Sony getting 3P exclusives 'makes it hard for Xbox to be Xbox' they've known for ages they don't have a VR solution on Xbox, they've known for ages PSVR2 was a thing and would release, and would get VR-enhanced versions of games.

They're likely joyous they don't need to placate a last-gen version of that game the way Sony has to.even if Series S somehow manages to have worst performance than a PS4 Pro :/.
