Oculus Touch available later this year for $199

Speaking during their Oculus Connect keynote, the VR pioneer has announced that the Oculus Touch controller will launch on December 6th for $199.
The controller will come bundled with VR Sports Challenge and The Unspoken, as well as a secondary camera that gamers can place in their play area.

In addition, if you would like a third sensor that allows the Touch controller to room scale, Oculus is selling it separately for $79 starting on the same date.
