Where to Preorder the Oculus Quest Stand-Alone VR Headset

If you buy something through this post, IGN may get a share of the sale. For more, read our Terms of Use.

The Oculus Quest comes out May 21, and takes us one step closer to the VR-future of science fiction. In our Oculus Quest review, we called it the “true future of virtual reality.” It has no wires, no sensors, and doesn’t require a computer to work. It’s entirely self-contained, and even includes a pair of touch controllers, and you can preorder Oculus Quest right now.

You might need to make some adjustments to game graphics, given this isn’t a headset with the full power of a gaming PC, but the trade-off is minimal given how excellent it is playing VR games free from constraints. It even has an “Oculus Guardian system,” warning you if you’re about to trip over your coffee table or some other obstacle. You can still see the real world through the headset, too, so you can disappear and reappear into whatever reality you want like you’re Doctor Strange.

Oculus Quest Preorder: What’s In the Box

The Oculus Quest comes in 2 different versions: 128GB and 64GB. The 128GB Oculus Quest preorder price is $499 and the 64GB Oculus Quest preorder price is $399. Other than the storage space, both units are identical and include the same parts and pieces in the box.

Here’s what comes packed in the box with the Oculus Quest:

Oculus Quest headset (128GB or 64GB)
Two Touch controllers
Two AA Batteries
15w USB AC Adapter
“Frame Friendly” spacer

The Frame Friendly spacer is an extra bit of material to help the headset sit more comfortably on the faces of glasses wearers.

Most major online retailers have preorder listings for both the $499 128GB and $399 64GB versions.
