![]() ![]() Frontier's launch plan involved releasing on PC during the 2014 calendar year (the beta launches at the end of July). Whatever the case, Elite: Dangerous is unlikely to launch on console this year. This is why we put all these options in."Įlite: Dangerous also supports virtual reality headset the Oculus Rift - and Braben pointed out that the PS4 has its own VR headset, Project Morpheus. "One of the beauties with console is we can then hand tune it to be just right. But what we're going to do is attach it to this part of the detail slider.
