Steam August VR hardware survey: Oculus Rift makes its biggest leap over HTC Vive

August’s Steam hardware survey results are now in, and the Oculus Rift takes its biggest leap over the HTC Vive yet.

Last month’s survey showed less than a 2 percent difference in the use of the two leading PC VR headsets on Valve’s gaming platform, but that gap grew to just under 4 percent in August. Vive came in with 42.58 percent of the total share (down from 44.35 percent last month), and Rift took home 47.11 percent (slightly up from 46.18 percent). Valve also deemed Rift the most popular VR headset in use on its platform by 0.35 percent. Could the launch of Oculus’ Marvel: Powers United VR bundle have given the headset a boost in any way?
