Then the Vision Pro beta for the Unity game engine has not been distributed yet, so many Unity developers can’t build applications for the Vision Pro, yet. I’ve seen some videos about it and honestly, the experience feels a bit subpar to me, but it’s a cool sneak peek of what could be the future of Zoos in 15–20 years.

So many memories, guys.

Unity support for OpenXR is still in early beta , and so it’s not reliable yet to develop an OpenXR-compliant application in Unity.
