Oculus is hosting its first games showcase next week

Matthew Wilson April 13, 2021 Software & Gaming, Virtual Reality

It has been a while since we last had some big VR games to look forward to, but that will be changing soon. This week, Oculus announced its first games showcase, during which we'll see new footage for anticipated VR games like Lone Echo 2, as well as some new game announcements.

Oculus will be holding its first games showcase on the 21st of April, featuring new announcements for Pistol Whip, Lone Echo 2 and Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy's Edge. These are “just a few” of the games that will be shown, as Oculus has “surprises in store” as well.

The stream will be live across Twitch, Facebook and YouTube, so you can tune in on whichever platform you prefer. We don't know how long the show will be, but it'll be taking place on the 21st of April at 11PM BST. Over in the US, that works out as 3PM PST or 6PM EST.

Given that this is an Oculus show, we can expect some exclusives to the Oculus platform. With the company moving away from PC-only VR as well, we are likely to only see games that support the Quest 2, in addition to the Rift S.

KitGuru Games: Corporate nonsense has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy as game removed from over 170 countries

It tends to take a lot for gamers to 'forgive' a studio after messing up a launch, for instance CD Projekt Red had to spend three additional years developing Cyberpunk 2077 before many were willing to give the game another shot. In the case of Helldivers 2, despite the game having some rough server issues at launch, the game turned out to be so good that many players simply waited things out, without leaving a trail of negative reviews. Now, a case of incredibly poor communication and a poorly thought-out plan from the game's publisher, Sony, has put Helldivers 2 in jeopardy, with the game being removed from over 170 countries.
