Taiwanese electronics firm HTC is best known in the game industry for producing (in concert with Valve) the HTC Vive VR headset, and now the company is digging in with the launch of its own VR dev division: Vive Studios.
“For external developers, Vive Studios is now a partner they can turn to for development funding as well as publishing and marketing support on VR content,” reads an excerpt of a Vive Studios press release sent out by HTC today.
It remains to be seen what sort of deals Vive Studios will make with external devs.
It’s already released its debut first-party title, Arcade Saga , a $30 Vive game developed by internal team 2 Bears Studios.
