Geoff Keighley announced today via Twitter that there will be a special announcement by Oculus VR co-founder Palmer Luckey during The Game Awards, scheduled to air Thursday, December 3 at 9pm EST.
As to what the announcement could be, Palmer tweeted that it won’t have to do with opening preorders for their long-anticipated Oculus Rift headset. That said, an official release date for the Rift, which is still scheduled to launch during the vague first quarter of 2016, could very well be on the table.
Some other possibilities could include new titles receiving Rift compatibility, support for the headset on new platforms, or even just how much one can expect to pay when it finally hits shelves.
The Oculus Rift began development in 2012 through Kickstarter, leading to Oculus VR being purchased by Facebook in 2014. The Samsung Gear VR, an Oculus-powered VR headset that utilizes the Galaxy Note5 and S6 similar to Google Cardboard, came out earlier this month.
