Epic Games is giving away 500 Magic Leap One AR devices to developers

Epic Games is making its Epic MegaGrants fund a little more enticing. Today, the company said that it’s partnering with Magic Leap to award 500 of the Magic Leap One augmented reality glasses to developers working in AR (the Creator Edition normally retails for $2,295).

The free AR headsets are in addition to the $100 million Epic is giving away as part of its MegaGrants fund. Announced in March, MegaGrants will support game developers, media creators, educators, and others who are working on projects that either use the Unreal Engine or somehow enhance open-source capabilities for the 3D graphics community.
