Yes, Black Friday is behind us, but that doesn't mean you're out of luck on deals, especially when it comes to VR headsets. Cyber Monday is still ahead of us, which means many of the sales are still holding strong. And with Valve announcing Half-Life: Alyx for next year, there's never been a better time to jump into VR. Cyber Monday has deals on quite a few headsets that are compatible with Half-Life: Alyx, including the Oculus Quest, Oculus Rift S, and HTC Vive Pro. Of course, there are also some great deals on PlayStation VR--though Half-Life: Alyx has not been announced for PSVR.
In fact, no matter what you're looking for in VR, you're going to find a deal. Whether you're looking for the wireless Oculus Quest, the high-end HTC Vive Pro, or even the VR media headset Oculus Go, there are deals for everyone. The only VR headset that hasn't received a discount is Valve's Index, though Index owners do get Half-Life: Alyx for free once it releases in March 2020.
Oculus's Cyber Monday deals were announced last week, while Walmart's Cyber Monday offerings and GameStop's Cyber Monday sale both offer some excellent options for discounted VR.
Black Friday 2019 Deals & News
Best Cyber Monday VR deals
Oculus Quest 64 GB or 128 GB + Vader Immortal bundle | $400 or $500
Available now
Truly wireless VR is quite the experience, and for Cyber Monday, Oculus is giving away all three episodes of Vader Immortal, an interactive Star Wars experience, with all Quest purchases. You'll need to activate your Oculus Quest within 30 days of purchase to claim the entire Star Wars series for yourself. The promotion lasts until January 31, though you have until March 2 to activate your Quest and redeem the offer. The Quest comes in 64 GB and 128 GB storage options.
One of the best features of the Quest is being able to plug it into your PC with a USB 3.0 cable and use it as a PC-powered headset via Oculus Link. This means you'll be ready for Half-Life: Alyx once it releases in March 2020.
Oculus Rift S | $350 ($400)
Available November 28 to December 2
The Oculus Rift S is the company's PC-powered VR headset, which means you'll need a PC with the hardware specs to run it and its software.

Unfortunately, Half-Life: Alyx has not been announced for PlayStation VR, but that doesn't mean Sony's headset isn't worth buying.
