Bethesda's open-world RPG latest game to see support for VR headset.

YouTube user "Chris Gallizzi" has posted a video (via Kotaku) showing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim running with the Oculus Rift VR headset.

Two minutes of footage are shown, including sword combat and horseback traversal. "Playing Skyrim with the Oculus is a dream come true," said Gallizzi in the comments, before adding that the game's field of view with the VR headset "takes some adjusting depending on your sight’ I'm [nearsighted] so I had to adjust [the] FOV from 100 to 110 to make everything seem correct."
