Apple: Apple Vision Pro: Games, software, streaming service coming to the most expensive mixed reality headset – Times of India
Apple has a plan to maximise the usage of the $3,499 device. The company announced that it will bring loads of content to the headset. The content includes games, collaborative software and, of course, movies/ shows.
100 Apple Arcade games at launch
Apple announced that the new face-mounted spatial computer will be a gaming platform and feature titles from Apple Arcade when available.
At launch, over 100 Apple Arcade games will be available on the Vision Pro. While there was hardly a mention of any existing VR game upgraded for the spatial experience, users will be able to enjoy games like NBA 2K23 on the Vision Pro using controllers.
Disney Plus streaming on Vision Pro
Apple brought in Disney CEO Bob Iger who announced that Disney Plus streaming service will be coming to the headset when it launches next year. The experience has been compared with “a screen that feels 100 feet wide” when watching content on it.
The Vision Pro headset will provide an immersive experience when watching Disney content with a thematic virtual reality environment. They can virtually travel to a new location, such as other planets in the show The Mandalorian. Disney shows and movies may be augmented with extra information as well.
‘Reach out’ for Microsoft 365 apps
Apart from being an entertainment and gaming device, Apple also highlighted the productivity side of the Vision Pro headset. Apple demonstrated that the headset will also bring Word, Excel, and Microsoft Teams apps to Apple’s new platform.
The apps can be accessed and controlled with users’ eyes. The headset will also get 3D personas, built using machine learning techniques to recreate the users’ face virtually. They can be used during video calls while users have the headset on.
