In the wake of big augmented reality announcements from Meta and Snap, Microsoft has confirmed that its HoloLens 2 has been quietly discontinued. Interested parties can still pick up a unit until stock is depleted. Then it’s lights out for the 5-year-old headset.
Microsoft told UploadVR that it will continue to issue critical security and software supports until the end of 2027. What the company has not confirmed, however, is whether a HoloLens 3 is in the cards.
Microsoft was ahead of the game in the world of enterprise AR, which is currently being pursued by the likes of Apple, Magic Leap, and Meta. But rumors of a new headset ultimately failed to materialize amid corporate downsizing.
