Store for virtual reality games Wear VR attracted $1.5 million investment
The Wear VR company has attracted investments of $1.5 million. With this money, she will develop a store of the same name for virtual reality games. The funds came from a group of American investors.
If you believe the predictions of the analytical resource Digi-Capital, by 2020 the size of the VR games market will reach $ 150 billion. Wear VR is going to be one of the pioneers in this potentially lucrative field. She has already created a store for virtual reality games and will add useful features to it. The company will launch an application with which users will be able to download VR titles to their mobile devices.
The company’s management believes that now is the time to launch such a store. The interest in the developing technology is enormous, it believes. The first games appear, but there are few markets for them yet.
Representatives of Wear VR emphasized that their store will not be tied specifically to any of the existing head-worn devices. Now it offers games for 12 devices and 5 different platforms.
“It is important that Wear VR offers a wide range of virtual reality applications,” said Nic Mitham, co-founder of the store. – New devices are announced every day, virtual reality is not only Oculus Rift. We want our fans to know that they can find games for any device on Wear VR.”

The Wear VR store has been running for a year, it now has about 900 applications.
In total, users have downloaded them about 200 thousand times. Funny numbers? No, considering that head-worn devices have not yet become widespread.
