MS still has Azure Kinect (basically v3) which is integrated to the AR/Hololens ecosystem. There are so many advances every year in Computer Vision that make use of RGB-D so I hope the field will expand not contract - specifically now as AR/VR applications are maturing to take advantage of them either for vanilla full body tracking or for realworld extension of the game space.
I have on my desk a camera from OpenCV's Kickstarter that just finished shipping and they it got down to $150 [1]. Velodyne just released a $100 Lidar sensor which is not a camera but shows what is possible these days if your looking to add depth.
