Oculus VR has run into production problems of its Oculus Rift developer kits after certain components needed for the headset ceased being manufactured, the firm revealed on Reddit.
“Certain components used in the Oculus Rift developer kit are no longer being manufactured, meaning they are no longer available to us for production,” explained the firm.
“As a result, we don’t have the necessary materials to produce additional kits. We still have some stock available, but we’re quickly running out. We are looking into alternate sources for the needed components, and we don’t yet have a timeline for when additional units will be available. We’ll be sure to keep everyone posted.”
Sales will be suspended in regions as and when inventory sells out. Dev units are currently shipping to the following countries:
- United States
- Canada
- Countries in the European Union
- Japan
- South Korea
- Australia
- Switzerland
- Norway
Oculus VR concluded: “We never expected to sell so many development kits and VR only made this much progress with the community’s support and enthusiasm. Even though we never wanted to sell out, it’s a good problem to have – Thank you!”
