HTC Offers Limited-Time Price Cut on Vive Pro 2 Headset and All-in Bundle

Okay, picture this: HTC drops the Vive Pro 2 back in the prehistoric year of 2021. It’s been their ultimate VR headset showstopper. Now, guess what? They’ve slashed the price, but you’ve got to act fast.

So yeah, there’s this Summer of Gaming Sale thing. It’s live now and goes till June 30th. If you’re hunting for a solid, but let’s be real, a bit old-school PC VR headset, check this out: you’ve got the Vive Pro 2 bundle and just the headset. Options!

First up, the Full Kit: was $1,199, now $799.99. You get the headset, those SteamVR 2.0 Base Stations, and the Vive wand controllers. Then there’s the lone ranger headset for $499.99, down from $699. But uh, no base stations or controllers there.

Oh, and get this: you score two months of Viveport Infinity. Think Netflix but for VR games. Over 1,000 titles to lose yourself in.

Alright, let’s geek out on some specs for a sec.

Resolution? It’s 2,448 x 2,448 per eye. Pretty crisp. The refresh rate kicks it at 90Hz or 120Hz—your choice. Fresnel lenses, which sound fancy but make the headset kinda chunky. Field-of-view is a decent 120° horizontal. It’s all adjustable, of course. Cables are 5 meters long. So, unless you’re running marathons, you’re good. And for the audiophiles? On-ear headphones and a USB-C option.

Yeah, so Vive Pro 2 ain’t the sleekest kid on the block. Fresnel lenses kinda make it bulkier than something like, say, Bigscreen Beyond 2. That thing’s making waves with its high-res but low-weight profile. But, being $200 cheaper than Beyond 2 ain’t too shabby, not when you consider it packs base stations, controllers, and all that jazz.

But wait, there’s more! The newer Vive Focus Vision is in the mix. Released in late 2024, it’s got native standalone VR and MR, plus wireless streaming. Fancy, right? They’ve got two bundles up for grabs until June 30th.

One bundle’s the PC VR Kit for $1,149. That’s headset, controllers, Wired Streaming Kit, and some games. Then there’s the plain Vive Focus Vision at $1,049. Same headset and controller package with extra games.

Did you feel that price jump? The original price was $1,000, but US tariffs hit, so it bumped to $1,049.

And hey, for those in Europe or the UK, there are deals there too! The Vive Pro 2 kit goes for €839/£699. Then you’ve got the XR Elite with games like Arcaxer and Yuki. Trackers, controllers, the whole shebang. Lots of numbers, less room here, but details out there if you’re curious.

That’s the scoop! Sale’s on till June 30th. Maybe I’ll check back to see if you plunged into VR space or stuck with the real world.
