We’re seeing more and better VR concerts, people are watching sporting events in VR – we’re talking major leagues too, like the NBA on Meta and the FIFA World Cup on Pico – and people are working out in VR. Mini golf in space is a blast, but it's not all that VR is good for (Image credit: Mighty Coconut) That’s not suggesting that Pico is abandoning gaming anytime soon – Hedges said he couldn’t go into any detail about what IP Pico is developing and partnerships it has with developers (like the upcoming timed-exclusive release of Just Dance VR from Ubisoft), but added that he believes VR content can go further. “Currently VR headsets are seen as very gaming-centric devices, I think for VR to go ‘mainstream’ – if you want to use that word – we have to offer more types of experiences,” he told us.

More VR contentĪs great as hardware upgrades are, Hedges noted that you need content too, otherwise you’ll be left with a powerful device that can’t do all that much.

It’s not just about what’s under the hood, though, Hedges added that “a more comfortable form factor has a huge utility for users across the enterprise and consumer space.” If you can’t bear to wear a VR headset for very long, then upgrading its battery, and equipping it with laptop-like levels of computing power, is pretty pointless.
