For a time, Oculus Rift Dev Kit owners enjoyed being able to play SteamVR.
"We've ed VR for a few years now," Frontier said in a statement to Eurogamer, "and Elite Dangerous is arguably the world's leading VR-ready game. We want to give players the best possible VR experience however they play—it's something we talked about with Digital Foundry recently—and that means focusing our efforts. Right now, we've chosen to focus on SteamVR. We haven't cut an exclusivity deal with any VR manufacturer, and we're still working with Oculus on Rift ."
The final sentence contains an important clarification. We're all a bit twitchy about already using SDK 1.0.
Update: On its forums, Frontier has stressed that it is actively working with the Rift—SteamVR is just the focus.
