Pricing 

XR-4 and XR-4 Focal Edition: 
• €/$ 2,500 – Annual license 
• €/$ 5,000 – Perpetual license 

The licenses are headset specific and can be activated for any XR-4 Series headset. 

All XR-4 Secure Edition headsets purchased after March 25th, 2025, will include a Pro license. 

Do I need a Varjo Base Pro license for my headset?

The license is required for XR-4 Series headsets that were purchased after March 25th, 2025, for using the full professional feature set in Varjo Base.  

However, Varjo wants to recognize XR-4 Series customers who purchased their headsets before March 25th, 2025. As an exemption, these customers can continue to use the existing features included in the 4.10 release without a license.  

XR-4 Series headsets can still be used with Varjo Base software without a license. In this case, some professional software features will not be available.
