"We're excited to formally unveil Vive Studios as a new pillar in HTC's initiative to drive persistent growth for VR," said Joel Breton, VP of content at HTC Vive. "Vive Studios' aim is to nurture and discover development talent and help create content that will continually push the boundaries of the kinds of experiences VR can deliver."

Vive Studios will use a publishing model similar to console games, where the label will produce first-party content through internal developers, such as 2 Bears, as well as partner with external developers.

For external developers, Vive Studios is now a partner they can turn to for development funding as well as publishing and marketing support on VR content.

The press release also states that Vive Studios is actively creating content across "key categories" for VR including games, education, cinematic, design, social, real-estate and sports, as well as tools and applications that can "revolutionize" areas such as media, retail, healthcare, and location-based entertainment centers and arcades.
