Oculus currently calls a component of the Oculus Quest 2. The reason is in an unpleasant reaction, about which some gamers complain.
The Oculus Quest 2 is considered one of the best VR headsets that you can acquire. This is mainly because you do not need additional hardware next to the headset and the device is set up quickly. The only downside is that you mandate a Facebook account needed for the Oculus Quest 2.
That's the problem: But the popular VR headset is probably probably causing problems. Because since the beginning of April there are reports that a component can cause skin irritation. So Oculus writes in its own blog (via oculus.com):
We have received reports on skin irritation at about 0.01% of the user of the quest 2, which occurred at the point where the foam part of the quest 2-headsets on the face support.
Now Oculus has updated his blog and explains that you have found a solution to the problem. For this reason, you now call back a part of the device and delivers free replacement.
Vive Cosmos wants to be "VR headset for all" - better than the competition?
Developers offer exchange of problematic parts
What happens now? Oculus voluntarily retrieves the removable foam facial cover of the Oculus Quest 2 and exchanges them for a silicone cover for free. The silicone cover should not irritate the face or cause problems. Thus, Oculus writes in the updated post:
Anyone who already has a quest 2 or a fit pack can get a free silicone sheath that fits the foam facial interface of the quest 2.
That's why you should swap the component: If you have already purchased an Oculus Quest 2 or a fit pack, then the opportunity uses and exchanges the part.
Although Oculus explains that there was probably no particularly serious cases with the foam facial coverage, yet you should go safely on number and exchanging the problematic component. Because there are no reports about when irritation occurs and what the persons concerned have reacted.
Where is VR now? VR gameplay could be an important factor for gamers in the future. For example, the VR-MMORPG Zenith Gameplay had introduced, where you can move with VR glasses through the game world. Also, otherwise, some users hope to immerse them in a virtual world in Sword Type: online.
On the Next-Gen consoles Xbox and PS5 VR is likely to play a role in 2021. So the Sony boss explained the VR no significant part of the gaming. Nevertheless, in the future, a new edition of PlayStation-VR should appear. So far, there is no official release date yet.
