"Unity has one of the most active developer communities building for the Rift, and today we're thrilled to announce that we've partnered with Unity to make Oculus an official platform and build target," said Oculus VR in a blog post.
"This means that Unity will now fully support Oculus and the Rift with a dedicated add-on that includes stereo imaging optimisations, 3D audio support, and other features specifically for virtual reality."
The news was announced this weekend at the Oculus Connect conference, where a new prototype model of the device dubbed Crescent Bay was revealed.
It is yet to be confirmed when a consumer edition of Oculus Rift will be released.
