Zwei Wochen ohne Konsole, ohne Handy, ohne dieses nervöse „Nur noch eine Runde“ – und plötzlich fühlt sich Gaming nicht mehr wie ein Job an, sondern wie das, was es einmal war: ein verdammtes Abenteuer. space4games.com/de/games/kol...
A decade of Meta’s outsized influence left the #VirtualReality industry bloated, brittle, and stuck in a holding pattern. Now, as Meta pulls back, there’s turbulence—but also, maybe, a long-overdue chance for a genuine reset.

There are rumors that the current wave of #layoffs at #meta 's Reality Labs has mainly affected employees at the #virtualreality studios Twisted Pixels (Deadpool VR) and Sanzaru Games (Asgard's Wrath 2). If you are affected yourself or have more information on the subject, please DM me.
Avowed is coming to PS5! If you’re an action RPG fan, this one’s a no-brainer. Avowed delivers a gorgeous world and a refreshing focus on what matters most in an Action-RPG.
@pcgamer.com just published one of the most disrespectful articles I've read lately. There are a lot of talented people working at @vertigo-games.bsky.social who don't deserve to be belittled in this way. Very bad style.
I'm also looking forward to seeing what this new adventure has in store for us 😊
Thank you very much! I totally agree with you, even if it is becoming increasingly difficult for niche magazines. But we won't give up 💪

I'm also taking over the leadership of SPACE4GAMES and will try to keep this beloved gaming ship on course together with my long-time colleague Ilona Frank. (9/11)
In addition to my freelance work for heise online, I'll also be working as a freelancer for other media outlets in the future, focusing on my core topics of virtual reality, gaming, and entertainment - at least as long as I can operate a keyboard. (8/11)
That's why I'm very grateful that I'll be able to continue pursuing this passion in the future. My former MIXED colleague Tomislav Bezmalinović and I will help advance the XR topic area on heise online going forward. (7/11)
I love following an industry that, despite all obstacles, continues to produce amazing things. I love trying new things, observing developments, listening to creatives, and seeing how their visions slowly grow. And of course, I love writing about all these experiences. (6/11)
For me, the past few years, especially the last two as the lead editor primarily responsible for organization, content planning, and coordinating writers, have been an incredible time! (5/11)
In the end, however, it wasn't enough to finance an editorial team and justify the economic maintenance of the website. (4/11)
For the past six years, I've been part of a journey with many ups and downs. We've stuck to a niche for years, covering a technology that may never break through to the mainstream but has found a loyal and passionate fanbase worldwide. (3/11)
After almost exactly ten years, an era in German online journalism is coming to an end. Germany's first and most popular magazine for virtual and augmented reality is closing its doors. MIXED will no longer operate as an independent website but will be integrated into heise online. (2/11)
@mixed-en.bsky.social is no more...

I took my first steps in Of Lies and Rain (PC VR) yesterday and wow, does it look good...
This folk-pop cover of my beloved Toxicity is much better than I expected...

@jamiefeltham.bsky.social brings up some good points here. Take a good look at this, #XR OS developers 😉
Had the chance to play Hitman on #PSVR2 early. Here are my thoughts...
Great idea 👍 VR fitness has always been the only exercise I can get myself to do on a regular basis. My all-time favorite is Synth Riders. It's simple yet effective and I love the music. And oh my god how devastating Until You Fall can be 😆
The VR industry is going through some growing pains right now. That's why events like @vrgamesshowcase.bsky.social are becoming increasingly critical. They offer a rare spotlight for developers to show off their latest innovations and upcoming games to a broad audience.
Richtig so, schön Zeit lassen 👍 Allein die Belichtung... Wie oft ich einfach nur stehen geblieben bin, um zu genießen ☺️
Das kommt dabei raus, wenn man sich auf ein paar wichtige Spielmechaniken konzentriert, anstatt eine möglichst gigantische Spielwelt mit Schrott aufzublasen. Hoffe, Avowed wird ein Erfolg und macht Schule
