CCP is the developer behind the wildly popular EVE: Online, complete with epic space battles and the expansion DUST 514first person shooter. Now a dog fighting space experiment at the studio has come to fruition with EVE: Valkyrie named as an Oculus Rift launch title.

Check out the gameplay footage below and now imagine it strapped to your face in high definition; you're going to need a seat belt for your chair. The Oculus Rift virtual reality headset still doesn't have a release date but now we at least are beginning to see a set of launch titles to be offered.

EVE: Valkyrie started off as an experiment that debuted at the EVE Fanfest last year and wowed players with the ability to turn their heads to line up and target enemy ships. For more on the Oculus Rift – including the latest version dubbed the Crystal Cove - and EVE check the links below.
