Earlier today, Facebook launched the Oculus Quest 2 all-in-one VR system, which packs updates like an increase in resolution to 1832 x 1920 pixels per eye (50% more pixels than the original Quest), a faster processor, support for 90Hz refresh rate, new Touch controllers with better ergonomics, a lighter form factor, and more. Not only that, it comes in at $299 for the 64GB model and $399 for the 256GB model - that's $100 less than the first-gen release.

Pre-Orders and Release Date: The Oculus Quest 2 is available to pre-order from the following retailers with a release date that's coming up super fast on October 13th:

Note that the Oculus Quest 2 comes with a bunch of new accessories (see at Oculus), including the Oculus cable for connecting to your PC to run Rift and Steam games. It's pricey at $79 (Amazon), but an Anker Cable should do the job just fine for $17.99 (Amazon). You should also keep in mind that a Facebook account is required for the Oculus Quest 2 this time around, which could be a dealbreaker for some.
