Oculus Rooms and Avatar API release date?

Hello,

I'm currently working on a multiplayer game using Unity and Photon Unity Networking. I'm mainly interested on how the Oculus Rooms will work and how to integrate it into my multiplayer solution. The avatars would also be nice, but we currently have our own avatars in our game.

It sounds like the Oculus Rooms would be first released on the GearVR and later on the Rift. I'm not exactly looking for the consumer release date, but it would be nice to have the API's so we can start integrating this into our game earlier than later.

Thanks.

    I can only speculate, but It would make sense to have the avatar system out by Touch launch for them (at least it's what I expect.)
  • I have a similar thing, where I use photon rooms.

    Im wondering what the benefit of using the oculus rooms would be?
    Or would I want to use both and just have them synchronized some how?
