The virtual reality (VR) landscape is expanding rapidly and, with all the major players making a big push to market in 2016, it's easy to become overwhelmed. At Schell Games, we've prepared this handy presentation to guide you through VR-land and help you become familiar with the prominent VR platforms in the industry. Sometimes it’s easy to get these headsets mixed up: they all seem so similar! But in reality, each of them brings something special to the table, while also presenting its own set of challenges.

One of the keys to making great VR is being intimately familiar with the strengths and limitations of the medium. Each platform, when leveraged properly, can open the door to a magical experience. If you’ve seen someone smiling, dodging an obstacle, looking around, going “whoooaaaa” or getting out of a virtual character’s way while wearing a VR headset, then you know what we’re talking about. We hope this information will shed a little light on the world of VR so whether you’re experiencing, funding or creating these experiences, the way forward feels a little clearer.

Enjoy the presentation!
