Vive celebrates the launch of new VR app store, Viveport with a $1 sale

With the focus on VR related services on an all-time surge, the major players of the genre are taking every step to bring VR to the more common masses.

One of the leaders in VR technology, HTC has marked another milestone for Vive. As it was already known that Vive was on the verge of launching their app-store called Viveport, which would not only feature VR compatible games but also content related to “education, design, art, social, video, music, sports, health, fashion, travel, news, shopping, creativity tools, and more”.

Now after an intensive period run in China, Viveport has finally been launched globally. The recently launched app-store features a plethora of applications including some which are debuting on the Vive headset like Google Spotlight Stories’ Petal, Stonehenge VR, The Music Room, Lifeliqe and more.

It was also earlier mentioned that Viveport would not be replacing Steam VR, which has been the primary supplier for the platform till now, but Viveport’s main aim was to segregate gaming and non-gaming content.

Also, to celebrate the launch event, the platform has also initiated a sale where titles like TheBlu and Mars Odyssey would be available for $1.

Finally, in the concluding portion of the announcement post, Viveport, president, Rikard Steiber said, “Any Day now we will Relay a secret message that will Reopen a path to unlimited Viveport content for worthy contenders.” He stressed on the three words – Day, Relay and Reopen, the first clues maybe? So yes, there would possibly be some sort of contest of puzzles which will reward the users with free access to the content. He concluded with, “We hope you will follow us on social media, install the Vive software, visit Viveport.com, and explore Vive Home over the next month as we unveil more clues and keys to unlock the treasures.”
