Xbox and virtual reality These are two concepts that in the first instance can be shocking., but not impossible. And it is that virtual reality is a market that is constantly growing and improving, and more and more players are choosing to buy a device that allows them to enjoy some VR games. In any case, it is still not something fully established.
However, and seeing it as a possibility, could be an opportunity for Xbox in terms of expanding its own market. However, and after not having previously experimented with virtual reality, it seems that in the words of Matt Booty, head of Xbox Game Studios, the possibility of Xbox entering this area is very small, if not impossible at the moment.
Xbox and virtual reality are for the moment a very distant possibility of union in time
Following an interview in the Hollywood Reporter, the chief has explained that the virtual reality market is currently too small for the company to show some interest in developing the possible potential that may be there.

“In our case, I think we are going to wait for a hearing there. We are very lucky to have great franchises that have become living sagas with great communities. We have 10 games that have achieved more than 10 million players to date, which is a pretty big achievement. That’s the kind of scale we need to see the success of a game, and That simply does not happen yet with augmented reality or virtual reality«.
Obviously the industry, like life and habits in general, They tend to change quite quickly, and many times we are late for that change.. However, it seems that the possibility of Xbox adapting to virtual reality had already been explored by company managers. The market is still very small for our green platform, and it seems that this is not going to change in the short or medium term.
