With the Apple Vision Pro making waves, we couldn’t help but draw parallels to Meta’s Quest 3, promising gaming and metaverse interaction revolutions. 🎮 Is the Quest 3 failing to catch up to the Vision Pro, or did marketing missteps hinder its success? Apple seems determined not to repeat such errors. Marketers not only need to consider Mixed Reality as a medium to advertise but also consider how to market new tech products when they’re launched in today’s tech-desensitized world.

I came across this wonderful and fun visualization of the last 50 years in the gaming industry based on revenue and split by platform. Some memorable milestones in there and testament to where the industry has come from it's humble beginnings. Interesting point-outs: - Mobile still has the biggest piece of the pie with consoles stagnating and PC slowly but steadily growing - Handhelds have - for now - almost but vanished but it'll be interesting to see if/how the Switch 2 and the young but interesting market of PC gaming handhelds will change that - VR/AR is finally making a noticeable dent with Apple's Vision Pro just hitting the US market and Meta's Quest 3 being a great success - And lastly we unfortunately see a noticeable decline in revenue for the whole industry based on many market shocks (e.g. pandemic, inflation, high interest) with some great question marks around how quickly the industry will be able to recuperate

🍏 Apple’s Vision for Spatial Gaming👓 The game industry is aflutter with speculation over the viability of Apple’s Vision Pro as a potentially disruptive new gaming platform. While most industry observers are skeptical that Vision Pro will reinvent gaming in the same way Apple’s iPhone and App Store did, it’s worth taking a closer look at how this new device changes the dynamics of the AR/VR market — or what Apple is now referring to as “spatial computing.” Vision Pro is clearly not marketed to the average customer, let alone gamers of any sort. It clocks in at $3,499 for the base 256 GB model and closer to $4,000 if you want things like a travel case, AppleCare+, and optical inserts for prescription glasses. However, with a high-end price point could it also deliver an exceptional gaming experience? Read more here: https://lnkd.in/ePZ6wJvf Thank you, Matthew Dion, for writing!

#Applevisionpro is a promising device for the future of XR, VR, avatar, metaverse, and web3. #T3 discusses the need for better controllers in gaming, a major use case for VR. #Gamification is a driving force behind VR content, and #metaverse technology has potential for movie content. Additionally, #fitness is a prominent use case that works well on #metaquest3. However, the #developercommunity is facing limitations and confusion regarding who will buy and use the device.

A real shame but not a surprise. The entry price point was definitely a big barrier for many and the low player numbers shown with RE4 (around 100k) is also pointing to a general overall failure for the hardware. With the Vision Pro being a long way away from being a financially viable platform for VR games, that pretty much just leaves the Quest 3 at the top of the pack. Especially as it apparently outsold the PSVR2 at a ratio of 30:1. #gamesindustry #vrgaming #psvr2 #metaquest3
