I always expect things to quiet down in November, and they never really do. Let's count the bombshells: Valve's Steam Frame announced, 8th Wall shutting down, Tim Sweeney in a Unity keynote... lively as ever, so read on! In a few weeks I'll be
We're still in peak tech news season and this neatly applied to the XR space as well. Google and Samsung finally showed off Galaxy XR, Snap held its big yearly conference, Meta was productive as usual and the rest of the industry didn't sit still either.
