Virtual reality space dogfighting sim EVE: Valkyrie will come bundled with all Oculus Rift pre-orders, founder Palmer Luckey has announced.

CCP Games' hotly anticipated spin-off is slated for release alongside the Oculus headset in Q1 2016, with support for other platforms to follow at an unspecified date.

"EVE: Valkyrie is one of the most anticipated virtual reality games, and one of the first true VR games to go into development...Battling your friends (and enemies) in multiplayer space dogfights is the ultimate VR thrill, and we're excited to partner with CCP to bring this experience to Rift owners everywhere." - Palmer Luckey

EVE Online and Dust 514 developers CCP have been keen to highlight the fact that this is a full game, and not just an elaborate tech demo. Between this, Elite: Dangerous and Space Citizen, the welcome space sim revival is about to hit full swing.
