Microsoft's VR headset lands in Ireland next month

Microsoft is bringing its virtual reality HoloLens headset to more countries next month.

The software giant is planning to expand HoloLens availability to Australia, France, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom in November.

Preorders for the headset will begin this week, and shipments should start later next month.

Microsoft originally launched the HoloLens development kits in the US priced at $3,000, and the pricing across Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK will be based on a currency conversion for each region with it retailing for €3299 here in Ireland - a massive chunk of change for many, but one look at the insanely cool trailer video online may have you reaching for the piggy bank.
