Oculus Rift owners take note: pre-orders for Touch begin today at 12pm PT (your local time), including VR Sports Challenge, The Unspoken as well as an extra sensor and adapter for Rock Band VRThe pre-order bundle will cost $199.

If your pre-ordered the Rift on Oculus.com, you’ll be able to get a ‘priority status’ when the first shipments release from the warehouses on December 6th. Priority status can be obtained only by using the same email you used when pre-ordering the Rift, and will be available for eligible customers up until Thursday, October 27 2016.

It’s unsure at this point exactly what ‘priority status’ will really confer on customers considering both Amazon and Best Buy are taking pre-orders as well, and are bound to have their own allocated stocks of Touch.

If you’re looking to use Touch in a large tracking space, necessitating a third sensor, Oculus is offering extra sensors starting today for $79.

There are actually a few storefronts already taking Touch pre-orders including Amazon.co.uk, and brick-and-mortar GAME stores, but as for EU or USA-based shops, you’ll have to wait until Oculus gives the official OK this afternoon.
