The following studios being shut down: Sanzaru (Asgard's Wrath series), Twisted Pixel (Deadpool VR), Armature (RE4 Quest VR port)

Meta acquisitions have proven to be a death sentence for so many great VR game developers already before, most notably Ready at Dawn.

I think AR/XR might be the more viable path if not wanting to go flat since all the big tech companies are more focused on that now. Skills would transfer well too and they'll still be very much VR adjacent. Kinda surprised Meta isn't just putting these studios to work on that but they probably want to spend on AI. I guess the one bright spot for VR specifically is Valve planning to release their new headset.
