PC version: Game will not start, black screen, then closes

You could also try just stopping the Oculus Rift service through Services.msc, as @dreadman2k suggested:

From Services.msc I stopped the Oculus Rift service, then the game launched correctly.

I’m not sure, personally, why this is an issue, but I’ll make sure the dev team is notified.
