Another month another blog. It's officially March 2023, and Andromeda Entertainment is back again with all the updates, news, and more from the last twenty-eight days. That's right, this was a short month, so I hope to keep this write-up on the shorter side. I've got some CES footage for you, a CEO blog to share, a PSVR 2 launch to wax poetic over, and some GDC reminders as we say goodbye to the month of love and say hello to the start of spring.
CES Recap Video
First, we just released our CES recap video this month, so check it out (and give it a like!) on our official YouTube. CES was such a great way to start the year off, offering a glimpse into the future of technology and invigorating us for what's to come. It was a great time, full of meetings with colleagues, trying out new tech, and constantly being impressed by every demo we did.
PlayStation VR 2 Launches
One of the pieces of technology we got to try at CES was the highly anticipated, much-awaited PlayStation VR 2, launched just a few days ago and has been all anyone in the industry or community has been able to talk or post about, and for good reason.
It's a revolutionary device with 4K resolution, HDR, 10 degrees FOV, inside-out tracking, eye-tracking, 3D audio, haptics in the headset, and more. It's already making waves in the gaming world, and one of our titles, Swordsman, is a launch title. Current users can get the Swordsmen update on PSVR 2 for free for the first three months after launch.
GDC 2023
This month, we're all looking forward to GDC! One of our developers is giving a talk, and I will be at some community round tables. The developers of Eolia and Ionia will also be there, as well as the developers of Audio Trip. We're all excited to learn and connect with one another. Please reach out if you will be at GDC and want to set up a meeting.
CXO Corner: Fears as a CEO
Last but not least, I'd like to share a new feature blog we started this month: the CXO Corner. In these periodic pieces a member of Andromedas C-suite will share struggles, tips, thoughts, and insights. This month, John talks about some common fears as a CEO. In it, he talks about the unique challenges of being a CEO and provides some tips for managing those fears. It's an excellent read for anyone in a leadership role or looking to jump into a leadership role.
