Traditionally, AWE USA has zeroed in on the enterprise aspects of the XR market, dabbling a bit in consumer interests. However, this time around, there’s a renewed emphasis on consumer XR game development and publishing.
The AWE Gaming Hub is set up as a dedicated space to bolster and quicken the success for XR game creators, developers, and studios. This program aims to bring together the visionaries shaping the XR gaming landscape—from pioneering game developers and content creators to media professionals, publishers, and investors. Whether you’re a seasoned XR developer wishing to elevate your game or a budding creator gearing up to debut your first immersive experience, the AWE Gaming Hub is your go-to for industry connections, resources, and visibility.
Looking forward, several thrilling XR gaming companies are already on board for AWE USA 2025, including the minds behind Gorilla Tag—Another Axiom—along with Resolution Games, Mighty Coconut, Sinn Studio, Kluge Interactive, Flat2VR, and LIV.
On the main stage, expect to hear from heavyweights like Jason Rubin, VP of Metaverse Experiences and co-founder of Naughty Dog. The Gaming Hub will also feature a variety of content creators such as Cas & Chary, JayBratt, Matteo, Mack Falconer, TribeGreywolf, AtomBombBody, Techman Prime, and Gingas VR. Plus, keep an eye out for publishers and investors engaging in speed networking and discussions.
The introduction of the Gaming Hub also brings a richer lineup of event programming, featuring sessions, workshops, and panel discussions specifically geared towards game developers. These will offer fresh insights into XR development, funding, distribution, and scaling. Check out the event’s Gaming Hub schedule for details.
