The original article announcing pre-order availability and pricing follows below: Valve maintains that shipping on all items is slated for June 28th. Update (May 1st, 2019): The company has officially opened pre-orders for all Index bundles and accessories. We’ve removed the May 2nd update that was previously here as to not cause confusion. All three out-of-stock bundles now show the August ship date. Update (May 4th, 2019): It seems Valve has quickly revised its September 30th shipping date for the full VR kit, now showing a ‘by August 31st’ ship date for new reservations. Valve said during the reveal of Index that the headset would see a “limited initial release” to the US and EU first, and that the company would ramp up their manufacturing and expand availability based on demand. Update (June 24th, 2019): The earliest pre-orders of Valve’s Index headset are due to be delivered on June 28th, according to users of the Valve Index subreddit who have begun receiving tracking information for their shipments.įor those who didn’t jump on the pre-order right away, the delivery date for new orders of the headset and controller bundle is now expected to “ship by September 30th.” The full kit (headset, controllers, and base stations), and individual orders of each no longer show an expected delivery date, but instead simply say “reserve now to be notified of availability.” While the first shipments are set to arrive for the June 28th launch, new orders for the headset aren’t expected to ship until September.

If you didn’t get a chance to pre-order Valve Index yet, the company’s high-end PC VR headset, you may have a fair bit of waiting to do.
