Hi y’all! We’ve released TheWaveVR versions 0.10.0 as well as hotfixes 0.10.1 and 0.10.2 over the past week! Here’s a list of changes from these releases, which were primarily focused on bug fixes, stability, server expansion, and optimizing performance! In addition to the updates to our software, we’re also announcing several new Resident DJs, and The Glitch Mob’s ‘See Without Eyes’ VR experience on our platform, which will be available to players world wide! Wait.. did we say “world wide”? Because TheWaveVR is internationally available now, too!

The Glitch Mob, Strangeloop Studios, and us, TheWaveVR, are very excited to announce our VR experience of The Glitch Mob's album, See Without Eyes, a 20 minute long custom mix of the album, taking users through vast surreal and interactable environments with animations and effects synchronized to the music. As always, the experience features many social elements, so make sure to jump into this one with other people!
