The Wall Street Journal today reports that Microsoft is also hard at work on its own 3D virtual reality device.

Citing “people familiar with the project”, the WSJ reports that Microsoft has even gone so far as to file a patent for the project.

The technology is allegedly being developed alongside a project called “Fortaleza,” which means “fortress” in Portuguese. The report states that Fortaleza will bring a “suite of experiences unique to Microsoft’s Xbox products.

We’ll report further on this rumour as we learn more.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
