The Touch controllers now cost half what they used to

That $199 price tag on a pair ofTouch controllersfor the Oculus Rift felt like total sticker shock, and I say that as someone who was impressed with the tech after trying games likeWilson’s Heartleading up to the December launch. Thankfully, it hasn’t taken Oculus long at all to issue a price cut.

Instead of going all in with the Oculus Rift and Touch for $798, you’re now looking at spending $598 for the lot. Or, purchased individually, that’s $499 for the Rift itself, $99 for a pair of Touch controllers, and $59 for the standalone Oculus Sensor if you’re interested in getting another one for room-scale tracking. This new pricing is already reflected on Oculus’ own site and online retailers like Amazon.
