The XR operating system was teased yesterday, along with the first headset based on it: Samsung's Project Moohan.
The first games and apps from third-party developers have already been announced for the device. How easy or difficult it will be to port Quest games to the new system will play an important role. Here's what developers say about Android XR.
Tommy Palm, the CEO of Resolution Games (Demeo, Spatial Ops, Home Sports), writes:
"While we are looking to bring existing games like Demeo to Android XR, the platform also opens us up to develop entirely new ideas. Android XR's open nature, developer friendly approach and unique innovations makes it not only viable, but allows us to consider new and novel ways to use mixed reality for storytelling. For instance, the natural language interface of ChatBots could be a very potent extension for XR and games. And the pairing of support for Unity makes it much simpler for developers like us to bring our experiences to even more headsets and expand the audience for XR."
