Yes, it’s true: Valve announced today that Team Fortress 2 will have a new “VR Mode” that supports the Oculus Rift, available this week!

Team Fortress 2 is one of our absolute favorite games (it’s Palmer’s most-played game on Steam!), and we’re really looking forward to playing it in VR with you. We couldn’t ask for a better developer showcase.

"Our very own Joshua Topolsky appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last night. ...the real star of the show was the Oculus Rift. After Oculus wowed us at CES, Jimmy tried the virtual reality headset briefly and was equally impressed with the results."

You can use the Oculus Latency Tester with your Oculus Rift development kit to precisely measure the latency of your virtual reality game or application.

We’ve been using the Oculus Latency Tester internally for a few weeks and because we’ve enjoyed it so much, we decided it was worth sharing with you.
