Razer announces next update to open-source virtual reality development kit and two gaming mice

Razer has made a lot of promises about its take on virtual reality and its open-source initiative. We’ll soon get a look at how it plans to deliver on it.

The peripheral maker’s Hacker Development Kit v1.3 is available for preorder October 1 for $300, and it releases later than month. It comes with a full-HD 5.5-inch 120 Hz silver screen OLED display and can run at up to 60 frames-per-second. You also have access to a number of storefronts to test the latest virtual reality software. Places such as Razer Cortex, Steam, Itch.Io, and Boondogl are accessible, and these give consumers a wide variety of content that’s regularly curated so that things aren’t lost in the noise.
