- Birdly VR also simulates headwind and comes with 3D audio so you can really get your bird on!
- It ain't cheap though: each one of these setups apparently costs around $135k. Geez!

- Mass production is supposed to start in March 2023 and a grand unveiling should happen in April
- The headset may come with iris scanning for quick authentication and payment authorization
- And get this: with the recent patents Apple has filed, there's speculation that the headset will either use hand tracking or wearable ring controllers!
- As for price, well, it won't be cheap, so right now, expect to pay between $2000 and $2500 when it releases!
- None of this is confirmed yet, but that's just what the word on the street is!

- You'll be able to pick from a range of different characters with their own unique abilities to defeat your undead enemies and save the town from annihilation
