As March wraps up and I’m enjoying the spring vibes of a successful project delivery, it’s the perfect time to dive into this week’s fascinating AR and VR updates. And yes, we can’t overlook the buzz around the "Studio Ghibli" AI phenomenon…
This Week’s Highlights
Samsung’s XR Glasses Unveiling Soon?
Word from Korean outlet ETNews suggests Samsung may drop some exciting XR glasses before year’s end. While details are murky—are they full-blown AR glasses or more streamlined smartglasses?—we do know that comfort and cutting-edge tracking tech via cameras and sensors are on the docket. Dubbed "Haen," a nod to coastal Korea, these glasses signal Samsung is brewing something big. Will 2025 see both their Project Moohan MR headset and the Haen glasses elevate Samsung’s XR game? It’s a thrilling prospect.
Vivo Joins the XR Race
Smartphone titan Vivo teased its first foray into mixed reality with its Vision headset. While specifics are scant, just its sleek design has been revealed, and comparisons to the Vision Pro abound—even paralleling the name! Officially launching in mid-2025, Vivo’s entry into XR spells more competition, which can only mean more innovation.
Meta’s New Audience Insight
Last week, I delved into Chris Pruett’s GDC talk, guiding us through the evolving Quest ecosystem. Yet another revelation emerged from Meta’s official blog—adults who aren’t hardcore VR devotees are using their headsets for entertainment more than gaming. These folks, mainly in their 30s, see Quest as a premier tool for watching films and shows. By 2027, expect this demographic to be central to the ecosystem. It leads me to ponder: should developers pivot towards movie-centric content? Change is constant—where should we, as creators, steer our efforts next?
Apple’s Big Event and Pimax’s Release
Mark your calendars for Apple’s WWDC on June 9th, where visionOS 3 might see its grand debut—a bummer it overlaps with AWE. On another note, Pimax is rolling out its Crystal Super headset on April 7, proving they’re keeping pace in delivery.
PlayStation’s Spring Extravaganza
Sony’s Spring Sale is a golden chance to snag discounted PlayStation and VR2 games until April 23. Gear up for titles like Alien: Rogue Incursion and Metro Awakening!
Celebrating WebXR at The Polys
The Polys has celebrated its 5th edition by acknowledging WebXR’s finest. This tech, though budding, holds transformative potential. Kudos to the team shining a spotlight on it!
What’s Going On with Valve?
David Heaney raises a fair critique regarding Valve’s dormant VR initiatives post-Alyx. They’ve got the funds and a supportive Steam ecosystem—why the silence? It’s time we ask the tough questions.
Cool Dev Experiments with Quest’s Camera
Developers are crafting magic with the new Quest camera access. Innovations range from copying real-world elements into games to dynamic lighting based on environmental cues. And yes, a quirky project of mine features in there too!
Exciting Content Unveils
Legendary names like ILM and Lucasfilm are crafting new immersive Star Wars experiences. Meanwhile, the release of Hitman World of Assassination for PS VR2 is winning fans, despite Meta halting System Shock 2 VR and the anticipated RoboCop VR failing to materialize.
More Games and Updates to Watch
This spring, shooter sandbox HARD BULLET hits Quest 3, and Orion Drift’s first major update is live. Avatar-inspired Elements Divided is slated for April 23 on Quest and PC VR, while Onward receives its 2.0 upgrade.
Fresh Reviews Are In
Check out Pinball FX VR for its authentic arcade vibe, and Boxed Out for a fun Tetris-inspired puzzle experience. Although Roboquest VR is still evolving, early impressions signal a promising future.
Industry Tidbits
The industry never sleeps—Infinite Reality’s massive Napster acquisition aims to redefine virtual music experiences, and Quest’s Horizon OS teases collaborative functions.
