If you strictly follow the guidelines regarding age requirements, you may be surprised because there might be some that are below the age required, who are already using the Oculus VR headsets.
Whether if it's an Oculus Rift, Quest, or Go, there's a minimum age requirement assigned for all of those headsets.
With that in mind, here's what you should know on how old do you need to be to use an Oculus headset.
