A notable name in making the users experience the digital world, Oculus has been very dominant over the other markets for their state of the art Virtual Reality experience. The company now offers pre-orders of the Touch Motion Controllers which bring your hands and body into the VR World.

The company has announced the details regarding the controllers, and their price, which is $199. In addition to this information, the December 6 shipping date has also been announced at the Oculus Connect Developers Conference, held last week.

We find this assertion under the post by Brendan Iribe, which is,

The company will ensure that a specific lot of the users who bought the system to be treated at the highest priority. However, this priority is limited to the users who bought through the website oculus.com, as long as they order before October 27.

The launch of the Touch is a huge leap for the Oculus, which takes Touch as a secondary system launch. This system is to be equipped with the Rift.

There is a good reason why this is happening. Everyone is well aware that some of the best upcoming titles entertain Touch and the experience is the biggest factor.

There are 35 new game titles which will be allowing the use of Touch. They are also launching with Touch on the December 6. In addition to the Touch, all of the Pre-orders will include 2 bundled titles, Unspoken and VR Sports Challenge.

Although these peripherals may be very heavy in the pocket, there are some things which sure that the price is upto the mark. The peripherals come with an additional camera sensor, which boosts the tracking performance. There is also an add-on mount which is implied to use while connecting to a Rock Band guitar.

Users can also buy additional sensors for $79 to even more strengthen the Rifts tracking system.

Hopefully, we will see this launch to rocket past the experience as compared to that of Rift.
