Didn't they kill off WMR? Seems dumb to not just start with OpenVR drivers for this.

Folks with the money to run this game at 90fps won't have 299 budget headsets.

No, the Vive Pro is SteamVR. WMR has been dropped, I think HP are the only folks who still produce any headsets for it, so most folks with one are just using OpenVR SDK stuff from steam on it these days.

Which is why gate keeping this beta to WMR drivers is just weird.

Signed up yesterday and sent my DXDiag. I also found out that my Reverb G2 pre-order is shipping sometime November.. So it's not (also no 3080 yet..) anywhere in the DXDiag, so don't know how that will go.

Oh and heads up, had to use Internet Explorer as the signup didn't work in the Chromium based Edge (don't know about Chrome).

Not according to this list:
