Samsung is trying to get the Gear VR around even more people’s heads. For just over the next two weeks, through June 19th, Samsung will include a Gear VR for free with all sales of the Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, S6, S6 Edge and Edge+, and Galaxy Note 5. It’ll also come with six games from the Oculus store.

To take advantage of the deal, you have to buy the phone first and then register for the promotion at Samsung’s website.
