Oculus Black Friday Deals 2024 – Oculus Quest And Rift S Deals Announced | Best Black Friday 2021 VR Sales And Deals | Check some Best VR Black Friday Deals 2024 on TheBlackFriday.Deals
The best VR headset of the year is the Oculus Quest
Star Wars: Vader Immortal, a $10-an-episode three-part exclusive cinematic experience that’s a great ride and excellent demo of what Oculus Quest can do, can be redeemed for free if you buy the Quest from Nov. 21 at 9 a.m. PT through Jan. 31, 2021. The final chapter arrives this week: I’ve been playing it, and it’s great.
The more limited-time deals are on the $50 (and $30 off) deals, running from November 28 to December 2.
Keep in mind: The Oculus Rift requires a compatible gaming PC to work, and Oculus Go, Facebook’s lower-end standalone VR headset, runs different apps from the newer Quest and it’s stationary, lacking move-around-the-room full-motion tracking.
Oculus Black Friday Deals
Oculus is bundling all three episodes of its Star Wars VR series, Vader Immortal, with every purchase of the Oculus Quest headset from November 21 to January 31. The Oculus Quest is an all-in-one, completely cord-free VR headset–no PC required–that comes with 64 GB or 128 GB of storage. There’s no discount, but you save $30 getting the Star Wars VR series for free. On top of that, Vader Immortal is a great way for Star Wars fans to experience virtual reality.
Oculus Rift S is the latest revision of Oculus’s PC VR headset. You’ll need a PC with the hardware specs to run the VR headset and its software, but everything else comes with the package, including the Touch controllers. Starting on November 28, the Oculus Rift S will be $350.
The Oculus Go is a completely portable headset that’s better used for movies, shows, and other media than gaming. It’ll be available for $150 for the 32 GB version or $200 for the 64 GB version on Black Friday from November 28 to December 2.
Facebook’s Portal is a 10-inch, touchscreen display that lets you video chat with friends and family through Facebook’s Messenger and WhatsApp–thankfully, they can use any device they want to communicate with you. The cool thing about the Portal is that the Smart Camera automatically follows your position by panning and zooming to get you in the frame. On top of all that, you can control your smart home and listen to music with Alexa support as well as display photos while you’re not talking to anyone. For Black Friday, the Portal will be $130 from November 28 to December 2.
The Portal Mini is exactly like the regular Portal–except it’s mini. The eight-inch Portal does everything the 10-inch does, including the Smart Camera movement, Alexa support, and photo display. From November 28 to December 2, it’ll cost $80.
The Portal TV plugs into your television, turning your television into a Portal device. It also gives you the ability to watch and listen to streaming services like Prime Video, CBS Access, and Spotify. Like other Portal devices, it features the Smart Camera, Alexa support, and more. It’ll cost $100 during Black Friday, from November 28 to December 2.
The Portal Plus features everything the other portals do except with a much bigger, 15.6-inch 1080p screen. It also comes with two 20w speakers that offer richer sound than the other Portal devices. For Black Friday, it’ll cost $250 from November 28 to December 2.
Bad news: It won’t be on sale this holiday.
Good news: It’s being bundled with $30 in free Star Wars games as part of a Black Friday promotion.
We’ve already seen some great Black Friday 2021 deals on the PS4’s PlayStation VR headset, and now we’re seeing some nice discounts on Oculus headsets for the upcoming Black Friday weekend.
While Quest is getting bundled with the three-episode Vader Immortal VR Series through the end of January (and we’ve heard no indication of potential price drops for the hardware), Rift S is dropping to $349 from Black Friday to Cyber Monday — typically the biggest shopping period of the year.
The price difference, then, means you can get a less expensive PC-only system for the holidays with Rift S for $349, or a dual-mode device with Quest for about $50 more which comes with a great Oculus-exclusive series bundled in with the purchase.
There are of course a lot of other VR-related discounts for Black Friday with steep discounts likely on Microsoft Windows Mixed Reality headsets, and it is possible there might be more surprises in store as retailers look to draw in shoppers.
Look for the discounted Rift S from Nov. 28 to Dec. 2 on oculus.com, Amazon and Best Buy.
The Facebook-owned VR company has a new bundle for its Oculus Quest headset, in addition to deals on the Oculus Rift S, the Oculus Go, and Facebook’s Portal camera. The lineup of Oculus headsets is suddenly even more interesting, as Valve has announced Half-Life: Alyx, a new, VR-only game in the Half-Life series. While it comes free with the Valve Index headset, it does also support other headsets, including the Oculus Rift and Oculus Quest.
Oculus plans to bundle its all-in-one Oculus Quest headset with all three episodes of its Star Wars VR series, Vader Immortal, starting November 21 until January 31. You’ll need to activate your Oculus Quest within 30 days of your purchase to get Vader Immortal for free, with March 2 being the last possible day to redeem the offer.
While the Quest doesn’t receive a special price, Oculus is discounting the rest of its VR headsets for Black Friday. Starting November 28 until December 2, the Oculus Rift S and both versions of the Oculus Go will be discounted by $50.
