Microsoft Is Killing Its Windows Mixed Reality VR Platform (www.uploadvr.com)

Microsoft announced this week that Windows Mixed Reality is now officially deprecated, and will be "removed in a future release of Windows". This deprecation includes both the required Mixed Reality Portal application and the SteamVR driver. That means that when this removal happens, existing owners of Windows MR headsets will need to use older versions of Windows to continue using them.

Apart from the tracking, Windows MR was a decent system that integrated nicely. Shame we couldn't get a bridge driver to keep using it with SteamVR. Guess it's up to the OS community to fix that?
