X-Rebirth VR Edition.

Yep there's a dev active in the vive sub in reddit confirming that. There are two versions, an open vr and an oculus as they had to use the sdk for the touch controls.

Greater news, if you own the original, there's a 30% discount just gone live at £24.49. Thankfully my steam pot was bellow the asking price this morning:)
 
It's ace, I'm in game now, just taking a break. The game engine looks and runs flawless on ultra, the scale is huge, it's crisp and it's clear.

They really need to work on the controls though, the motion controls really aren't needed for flight control, and having to drop the hotas every other minute to nav the menu's is a pita. I'm doing my level best to map it all to my stick and throttle hat switches, but ego have made it very difficult.

If they sort out the menus and make them as fluid as they are in elite, then they have it sorted.
 
Deserves a bump.

They updated it to include the newer control method, it completely blows it away. Ill never touch a hotas or gamepad in an arcade space game again. The control you have using the left wand to pitch and roll with the strafing so easily done on the trackpad is amazing. With everything clickable on the left/right controller, this is the best use of the vive wand yet.
I'm taking out fast drones and small ships far faster than I ever could on my stick, dancing round capitals taking out turrets with motion avoiding flak better than my vulture in elite ever could.

Ego deserve all the creds. Like mouse and keyboard is to fps on a flat screen, this is how you control a space ship in vr.
 
£24 lf you have the original in your steam library. Also there's active mod folk restoring a lot of what ego emitted from the vr version, if your versed in the original.
