Ah, the good ol’ VR Games Showcase is barging back into the scene next month. Yep, August 12th, mark it. All starting at this oddball time, 8:40 AM PT. Yeah, why such a specific time? Maybe someone likes weird numbers. Anyway, this pre-show gig, “XR Indies & Friends”—sounds like something my friend’s cat would host—is back too, warming things up before the main shindig kicks off at 9:00 AM PT.
Now, the big cheeses behind this event claim we’re in for some major game-changer revelations. Supposedly, it supports Quest, PSVR 2, and some PC VR headsets. Makes you wonder if they might spring a couple surprises or just recycled news. Fingers crossed for some innovation, am I right?
So yeah, supposed to be the “strongest line-up yet.” Whatever that means. But hey, we get updates on Forefront by Triangle Factory—some multiplayer VR shooter—sounds promising, right? And Reach by nDreams Elevation; love the name, makes me think of mountaintops and epic views, or maybe just stumbling through pixels. Plus, Flat2VR Studios brings us whatever they’re cooking up.
Oh, and don’t forget Polyarc’s Glassbreakers: Champions of Moss. They’re sharing something from Seattle. Real-time action strategy? Sounds fancy, but we’ll see if it’s more sizzle than steak.
The pre-show’s this 20-minute dash featuring indie projects. Indie stuff always feels like digging through a thrift store—might find a gem or just a tacky sweater. But hey, they might just blow our socks off, who knows.
So, come August 12th, we’ll be getting cozy and streaming this on YouTube and TikTok Live. Let’s hope it’s not just a bunch of trailers and glitter. Anyway, should be a ride. But what do I know? I’m just here, rambling about VR while waiting for my coffee to brew.
