Experience Halo: Combat Evolved in VR with Full Motion Controls

A new mod for Halo: Combat Evolved allows players to experience the full campaign in VR with 6DOF motion controls and two-handed weapon aiming. Available on GitHub, the mod is compatible with the original 2003 PC release but not with the Master Chief Collection or Anniversary Edition. It requires SteamVR and a physical copy of the game, as digital versions are unavailable. The mod has not been tested for multiplayer, and the original game lacks co-op support.

The Demise of Microsoft's Windows Mixed Reality

Microsoft has announced the deprecation of its Windows Mixed Reality platform, including support for Windows Mixed Reality devices and SteamVR. The company's attempt at building a VR ecosystem for Windows PCs has been mostly inactive for years, with no new VR headsets released by OEMs. Even the HoloLens product, Microsoft's only surviving "Windows Mixed Reality" device, has faced challenges. This move indicates that Microsoft is abandoning its VR venture, with no plans for a true successor to HoloLens and no interest in VR from Xbox.

PSVR2 on PC: Compatibility Achieved with Additional Hardware

The project to use PSVR 2 as a PC VR headset has made progress with SteamVR output, but there are major caveats. While PSVR 2 technically works on PC in "cinema mode" with specific NVIDIA 20-series GPUs, it lacks positional tracking. iVRy, the developer of a third-party SteamVR driver for the original PSVR, has been experimenting with PSVR 2 and recently achieved a breakthrough by using extra hardware and custom software. However, this approach requires additional hardware and there is currently no onboard tracking. iVRy plans to develop an adapter using a Raspberry Pi Pico board, but mass manufacturing will require another company.
