Microsoft is hosting an event on October 3, which focuses on Windows Mixed reality and it is possible that the head may be unveiled at the event. 

Acer and HP have already unveiled their own Mixed Reality headsets, which are priced at $299 (approx Rs 19,600) and $329 (approx Rs 21,600) respectively. The Acer headset bundle with the controllers is priced at $400 (approx Rs 26,000). Unlike the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, Acer and HP’s headsets use LCD displays as opposed to OLED. Both these headsets offer a refresh rate of 90Hz.
