HTC VIVE will be available exclusively on Amazon via pre-order and will soon be available for an in-store experience across select locations across the country. These locations will be equipped with an interactive VIVE demonstration station, fully open to the public for individual sessions to experience a variety of virtual reality content supported by the platform.
"We are delighted to launch VIVE in India. VIVE has totally transformed the way we interact with the world, bringing ultimate mainstream experience to the consumer. Now consumers and developers can experience immersive virtual reality in a way that reshapes human imagination beyond boundaries," said President-South Asia HTC, Faisal Siddiqui.
Priced at Rs. 92,990, VIVE is the first complete VR solution, including wireless VR controllers, room scale movement and Head Mounted Display featuring a built in camera. To celebrate VIVE's India launch, Indian consumers can enjoy free shipping when they order VIVE from Amazon as well as two fully-fledged VR experiences.
