There’s never been a better time to create for VR, and today, we’re inviting you to join the VR developer community at Oculus Connect, October 11-12 in San Jose, Calif. Applications⁠ to attend OC4 are now open!

Indie favorites like Augmented Empire⁠ and Gunheart⁠ to AAA games like Star Trek: Bridge Crew⁠, Robo Recall⁠, and Echo Arena⁠ have established VR as gaming’s next frontier, while interactive films like Step to the Line⁠ and Zero Days VR⁠ plus cutting-edge artistic tools like Medium⁠ and Quill⁠ showcase the power of VR to tell meaningful stories and make a positive impact on the world. As more people dive into VR, developers are finding a growing and increasingly engaged audience.

OC4 attendees will get an inside look at what’s new across the VR industry and what we’re building next, including exclusive, never-before-seen VR demos. You’ll hear directly from Oculus hardware, software, and product engineering teams—including everyone’s favorite unscripted keynote and live VR app reviews from John Carmack.
