The complaint, filed with the U.S. District Court in California, states that the company has brought action against Luckey for "breach of contract and wrongful exploitation and conversion of [Total Recall Technologies] intellectual and personal property in connection with TRT's development of affordable, immersive, virtual reality technology."

This isn't the first time Oculus is being challenged in a legal battle. The Facebook-acquired VR company slammed ZeniMax last summer for making a blatant attempt to profit from the $2 billion sale. The new lawsuit does not indicate an amount, but the company is seeking compensatory and punitive damages from the virtual reality headset maker.
