The Lab was released in 2016. It had been created for roomscale VR in a world with no roomscale VR games, and took on the difficult task of building its conventions from the ground up. Now, three years later, conventions have evolved, the state of the art has progressed, and it seems fitting for The Lab to progress as well.

In the Hands-On update, we have brought the latest innovations in VR tech to the various pocket universes of The Lab.
