Traditionally, AWE USA’s primary focus has leaned towards the enterprise side of XR, with some nods to the consumer segment. However, they’ve now shifted gears to shine a light on consumer XR game development and publishing in this latest chapter of the event.
Enter the AWE Gaming Hub, a dedicated space aiming to propel XR game creators, developers, and studios to greater heights. It’s a convergence point for major players in the XR gaming scene—bringing together game developers, content creators, media, publishers, and investors. Whether you’re a seasoned XR developer aiming for the next big breakthrough or a newcomer ready to launch your first immersive project, the AWE Gaming Hub is your gateway to invaluable connections, resources, and industry visibility.
Some of the standout XR gaming companies already on the roster for AWE USA 2025 include the minds behind Gorilla Tag, Another Axiom, and creative giants like Resolution Games, Mighty Coconut, Sinn Studio, Kluge Interactive, Flat2VR, and LIV.
Fans of the XR world will be excited to learn that Jason Rubin, the renowned VP of Metaverse Experiences and Co-Founder of Naughty Dog, will take the main stage. Joining the hub of content creators are popular names like Cas & Chary, JayBratt, Matteo, Mack Falconer, TribeGreywolf, AtomBombBody, Techman Prime, and Gingas VR. Plus, publishers and investors are set to join in on speed networking and rich discussions.
The Gaming Hub also expands the event’s programming with a plethora of sessions, workshops, and panel discussions crafted specifically for game developers. Expect fresh insights on XR development, funding, distribution, and scaling up. For more nitty-gritty details, check out the event’s Gaming Hub track.
