How to choose a VR games supplier ?

You want to get started in VR? Looking for a VR games supplier? It is difficult to select among the players on the market. In fact, there are many players who can offer you virtual reality experiences, so you need to choose the one that best suits your needs.

In order to accompany you for a long time and to guarantee you a serene operation, a good VR games provider must provide some guarantees:

1. In terms of software:. — A complete catalogue of games that appeals to all audiences, — Rich and varied multiplayer experiences that immerse players in realistic and immersive worlds, — An administration and game management tool — A solution that adapts to all the spaces available: box, room scale, to make the most of the space in your room.

2. Regarding the hardware:. Make sure you are well advised by your provider on the choice of VR headsets and any other media you will use for your room. Be careful with the choice of headsets: although the promises of the manufacturers can be tempting, the obsolescence of the headsets or their use in a professional environment, and therefore with strong constraints, must be taken into account when buying from your VR games supplier.

VR game providers: what is Octopod?

Since 2018, Octopod is a content distribution platform. In addition to being a management and administration tool, this software provides a catalogue of VR experiences for all audiences and spaces.

Octopod was developed within Wanadev, a company specialising in digital development, founded in 2009 and employing 80 people. Wanadev also includes WanadevStudio, which produces virtual reality experiences for location-based entertainment and the general public, which we offer in the Octopod:Games catalogue.

To provide high quality and varied VR games to leisure and entertainment centres, we source and integrate virtual reality experiences from WanadevStudio and partner studios. The catalogue is therefore regularly enriched with experiences that have been tested and approved by our team of professionals. The games we offer are compatible with the majority of PCVR headsets on the market.

VR games provider: What is in the Octopod:Games catalogue?

Octopod:Games is a VR games catalogue containing multiplayer virtual reality games developed by partner studios and publishers (including WanadevStudio, our in-house studio). In addition to WanadevStudio, the experiences come from partner studios such as Backlight, Iconik, Delusion, NeverBored, Incarna-Studios, Spartrack VR that have joined our catalogue and wish to be distributed in VR centres.

The catalogue is made up of stationary and free-roaming games, all multiplayer. The stationary games (boxes or pods) are more suited to discovery or first experiences in virtual reality. On the other hand, the free-roaming games allow you to move freely and experience a greater immersion. This type of game makes it possible to offer a new, very immersive and innovative experience to end customers, allowing players to move around in tens or hundreds of square metres.

Octopod's VR games catalog adapts to the available floor space: we offer games catalogs for box spaces (pods 9m² per player), room-scale (two players, 20m²), and Octo:Gone (8 players, 80m²) / link to the playgrounds page.

In order to foster collaboration, replayability, and fun, we provide mostly multiplayer games. The VR experiences provided are collaborative and competitive, and take place in different universes to suit different types of customers (family, team building, friends, events).

Thanks to our experience since 2016, we can offer a varied catalogue of games suitable for different types of users. Whatever the audience, the location and the space available, you will find what you need in the catalogue.

With Octopod, for example, it is possible to define the games that make up a franchisor's catalogue, and the franchisor can then make the games associated with this catalogue available to its franchisees. In fact, we have developed spaces and tools to meet the specific needs of distributors and studios.
