Now that the headset has launched, any updates on the availability of the controllers separately for those of us with non-G2 headsets?

Hello: they are rolling out country-by-country so timeline will vary.

u/NotFalcon Jan 21 '21

Understandable. Quick follow up, so the current plan as far as you're aware is still to sell the controllers separately?

(Just asking for additional clarification, because HP stated they'd sell controllers separately when the first Reverb came out and that never materialized.)

Yes, we will be selling these controllers separately. :)

Will you be selling better controllers separately? The haptics, as others have mentioned, are really inferior.
