Whoa. Okay, so there’s this VR Games Showcase thing happening next month. Summer 2025. Can you believe it’s that year already? Time flies. Anyway—wait, where was I? Oh yeah—the event’s gonna start on August 12th, really early at like, 8:40 AM PT. I’m not even sure why they picked that time. Maybe the organizer’s a morning person? Who knows.
So, they’re doing this ‘XR Indies & Friends’ pre-show, which sounds kinda cozy. But then the big stuff kicks off at 9:00 AM PT. Prime time for caffeine-fueled gamers. And guess what? They’re teasing big reveals and all these updates for games on Quest, PSVR 2, and PC VR. Sounds like a smorgasbord of virtual fun, right?
I overheard somewhere—well okay, read somewhere—that they’re saying this showcase is gonna be the best yet. Bold claim! They’re supposed to feature the latest dish on games like Forefront by Triangle Factory. Apparently, that’s a must-see. Then there’s Reach from nDreams Elevation. Not sure if it’s as big as they say, but I’m letting myself get a little hyped. Flat2VR Studios is also supposed to have some cool news. I mean, it’s like a buffet of VR entrees.
Now, about Polyarc’s Glassbreakers: Champions of Moss—this game title’s a mouthful, by the way—there’s gonna be this VR Developer Direct video. Like a backstage pass but for nerds. And it’s happening from Seattle. I love that city. The way the rain smells there is just different, ya know?
Oh, and that XR Indies & Friends segment sounds like a wildcard, like you never know what’s gonna pop up there. Newbies on the block might surprise us—or not. But 20 minutes, and poof, onto the main event.
By the way, is it just me, or do these showcases always build up the suspense with their line-ups? They have these titles that sound like the next big thing. Maybe it’s a marketing thing. Maybe we’re just suckers for the drama.
Here’s a quick rundown: Glassbreakers is making a splash, Triangle Factory’s got something happening, Reach is getting a new trailer, and Flat2VR might throw us a curveball with a new initiative.
Anyway—wait, getting ahead of myself again—you can catch all the VR zaniness this summer on YouTube and TikTok Live. 8:40 AM PT, mark it. Or don’t. Just remember the date: August 12th. And, that’s about all I know. Or remember. Or both.
