Oculus plan to make Facebook accounts mandatory for all of their VR headsets, starting with new users from October 2020, Oculus announced last night. The move comes as part of the VR giant’s plans to end support for existing Oculus accounts on January 1st 2023 and shift everyone over to the same system as their parent company, Facebook. The idea is that it will “make it easier to find, connect and play with friends in VR,” according to Oculus, as well as “make it possible to integrate many of the features people know and love on Facebook.”
It’s also a sure-fire way to make sure swathes of VR users never buy an Oculus headset ever again.
