We're past Meta Connect, but we're still very much in peak XR season, as the holiday period is still a while away. Meta is blasting out news as always (spending a billion a month will have that effect), but Snap and Niantic are also quite active
So, Meta Connect has come and gone, and it was definitely an interesting one this year! The Orion AR glasses were clearly the highlight of the show, but there was plenty of interesting developer news as well. Quest 3 (which had been completely leaked in the months leading up to
With Meta Connect coming up, I thought it wise to get all the September XR developer news leading up to it out of the way, as Meta will surely drown out everything else very soon (and provide ample material for a special edition of this newsletter). Big news has obviously
As this fall is looking to shape up as an extremely interesting one for XR, I thought it might be useful to share which sources I tend to keep a close eye on for XR-related news. Some of them developer-specific, others more general. In my experience there's a

Apple's WWDC contained a ton of visionOS 2 updates for XR developers, spread across no less than 29 separate prerecorded sessions which became available throughout the week. I've gone through all of them to sort out the most interest news and figure out which ones are
Somehow this month felt like a slower month in XR developer news, and I think that was mainly due to Google I/O being very very light on XR. There was some interesting AR news there, but we'll have to keep waiting for a while longer to see
Welcome to my monthly roundup of XR Developer News! As we're gearing up for developer conference season, Meta decided to drop a 'Horizon OS'-shaped bombshell in advance of the competition laying out the next phase of their plans. Let's have a look at
Welcome to my monthly roundup of XR Developer News! For the first time since the beginning of the year, the XR world was not completely dominated by Apple Vision Pro news. Definitely a breath of fresh air to see so a bit of a balance between the two behemoths (Meta
Welcome to the second XR Developer News monthly round up! It was an interesting month again this time with lots and lots of Vision Pro / vision OS news (unsurprisingly), which drowned out the rest of the XR ecosystem for a few weeks. But, as you can see below, there'
