Armature, Sanzaru, and Twisted Pixel have all been terminated by the studio, and Supernatural will not receive any new content in the near future.
The company's layoffs, which are centered on the metaverse, have had an impact on a number of Meta's virtual reality studios. There are three virtual reality studios that have been shut down by the corporation. These studios include Armature, Sanzaru, and Twisted Pixel. In the future, the virtual reality fitness app Supernatural will no longer receive new content updates.Both Twisted Pixel, which was responsible for the debut of Marvel's Deadpool VR in November, and Sanzaru, which is known for Asgard's Wrath, have announced on social media about the closures of their respective companies. It was claimed by Bloomberg that Armature, the company that was responsible for bringing Resident Evil 4 to Quest in 2021, has also shut down. Additionally, it was stated that the famous virtual reality exercise program Supernatural will no longer receive updates with new content, although the present edition will continue to receive support.There was confirmation of the closures from a spokeswoman for Meta. "We said last month that we were shifting some of our investment from Metaverse toward Wearables," the spokesman said in a statement to Indiasocialbook. the statement was provided to Indiasocialbook. "This is part of that effort, and we plan to reinvest the savings to support the growth of wearables this year."The reductions raise issues about Meta's commitment to supporting a virtual reality ecosystem in which it has made significant investments. Since the Quest 3S was released in 2024, the firm has not made any announcements on new virtual reality headsets. Additionally, the company "paused" the Horizon OS headsets made by Asus and Lenovo last month. Additionally, it is reducing the amount of in-house game development that it is doing.The company Meta is asserting, at least within its own ranks, that it is still dedicated to providing support to the industry. "These changes do not mean that we are moving away from video games," the director of Oculus Studios, Tamara Sciamanna, wrote in the memo that was reported by Bloomberg. As a result of this move, we are restructuring our investments such that they are concentrated on our third-party developers and partners in order to guarantee our long-term viability.https://www.Indiasocialbook.com/about/editors/karissa-bell/
