On July 8th, Sam & Max: This Time It’s Virtual, one of the most awaited VR games of 2021, will be released on Oculus Quest (you can wishlist it here). It is the re-proposition of the famous duo Sam & Max, that was very popular in the 90s, but this time in a completely different […]
It’s summertime, and as usual, during this part of the year, people think about going to the seaside more than about VR, and so the news to talk about are always fewer. So expect this and the following weeks to be a bit calmer for the XR ecosystem. I have some news to share about me […]

I had the great pleasure of talking with Dave Weinstein, Director of XR at NVIDIA, about the amazing job that NVIDIA is doing in the XR field. NVIDIA is investing a lot of resources for immersive realities, and its commitment to XR is visible in its products like Omniverse and the CloudXR SDK. I wanted […]
Happy VR Summer! This is the first day of this sunny season (if you live in my same hemisphere of course), and I hope that you won’t have any Summertime Sadness like Lana Del Rey, but you all will enjoy the sun, have some relax, and forget for a moment all the hard times we […]
Some days ago, Facebook has announced that it will start experimenting with VR ads inside some selected applications (and Blaston will be one of the first) as a new opportunity for developers to make money.
