An Interview With the CEO of Terra Virtua

One of the newer blockchain-based social VR spaces that is currently under development is Terra Virtua, which I had previously blogged about here. Terra Virtua bills itself as a “Netflix for VR”, a delivery platform for VR games and entertainment from other companies. It will be built on the Unreal game engine, and the company is also collaborating with Epic Games to develop a suite of tools which will allow users to create their own content.

The following is a nine-minute interview with the CEO of Terra Virtua, Gary Bracey:

He said that the Terra Virtua platform is expected to have its beta launch in the first quarter of 2019.
