Valve launches Steam VR and HTC Vive

Valve enters the realm of Virtual Reality with software, hardware offerings

Posted on

Steam has officially expanded into the world of Virtual Reality today as Valve introduced SteamVR, featuring dozens of VR titles. The launch comes the same day HTC began shipment of the Vive, the first complete SteamVR system.

Similar to other areas of Steam, the SteamVR pages showcase dozens of titles and experiences for VR enthusiasts to check out. Some for sale, some free. Some are games, some are something new and totally different.

Also today, HTC begins shipment of its Vive VR system. Priced at $799, the Vive is the first complete VR solution, including wireless VR controllers, room scale movement, and an HMD featuring a built in camera. As an added bonus, and for a limited time, those who purchase a Vive will also receive a free copy of Tilt Brush, theBlu, and Fantastic Contraption.

Steam is Valve's popular digital distribution platform.
