Valve Index are Valve's new virtual reality glasses and will be unveiled in May
We have to assume that Valve's new virtual reality glasses will be announced in full detail next May, in a risky bid by Valve to compete with Oculus Rift and HTC Vive to a greater extent, the two most popular devices within of the virtual reality scene on PC.
The UploadVR source managed to obtain some leaked images of the prototype in November, adding that the field of view (FoV) will be 135 degrees and the resolution will be similar to that of the HTC Vive Pro at 1440 × 1600 pixels per eye, then. The Valve Index will most likely be included with the Knuckles SteamVR motion controller, as well as some games, possibly even a Half-Life version designed for virtual reality.
SteamDB also discovered the Valve Index logo in the EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office) database a couple of months ago.
That is all we currently know about the device. Valve invites us to wait until May to find out all the details about its virtual reality glasses. What can Valve Index offer versus Oculus or Vive? Without a doubt, the price will be decisive for your success.
