STAR CITIZEN FOCUSING ON VR
IGN: STAR CITIZEN FOCUSING ON VR
The development team has been focusing heavily on releasing Alpha 2.0, leaving VR implementation in the background. According to RoadtoVR, some parts of Star Citizen do have support for the Rift DK1, but the game has not caught up to more recent developments in VR technology.
"It’s a little more complicated because we’ve changed the engine so much," Roberts says. "We’ve changed the rendering pipeline to enable us to do a lot of things that we need to do so it’s not very easy."
Roberts and Cloud Imperium Games certainly have the money to step up Star Citizen's VR support, as the game surpassed $100 million in its crowdfunding campaign in December.
