UVRSS25 Announcement
Hello again! Every June and December, UploadVR holds its biannual Showcase where it premiers the latest VR and MR experiences. Over the years, indie creators and larger studios have trusted UploadVR to debut their exclusive teasers, trailers, and developer interviews during the online event.
This summer, the Showcase will be returning to its regular format and will be broadcast by IGN, as well as on the UploadVR YouTube channel. Thank you to the AIXR Awards for their partnership during the last Showcase which was held live in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The AIXR Awards celebrates outstanding achievement in VR and it was an honor to share our events simultaneously.
UploadVR is incredibly grateful to the sponsors of last winter’s event, as well as everyone who submitted their projects. A heartfelt thank you goes out to DigiGods, Shardfall: FitQuest VR, OISOI Studio, Banter (SideQuest), and Vivarium.
Alright! Here’s some preliminary information about UploadVR Showcase - Summer 2025:

How Does UploadVR Select Participants?
We are looking for originality, oddity, interest, and impact, and we aim to produce Showcases that mix unusual and interesting small-scale works from single creators with large-scale projects from well-known teams. Not all projects are a good fit for a specific Showcase, but we want to cast our net wide to provide our audience with a broad view of what's fun and interesting in VR, and we're open to future resubmissions.
We ask that you commit to placing an embargo on your content and that the video will be released first in the showcase, including any information it reveals.
When Will I Know If My Application Was Accepted?
UploadVR will review applications as they come in and contact applicants with a yes, no, or a more conditional reply as soon as possible. We aim to build the showcase much sooner, which means being more strict about the deadline to submit final videos.
The deadline to submit final videos is June 15th, 2025. Videos submitted to us must be 1080p-4k and 30-60fps or will we not accept them.
If the timing doesn’t work out, there may be room in the next event, or as separate coverage from us. As always, keep us informed about your projects at every stage by emailing tips@uploadvr.com.
When Are Selections Made?
If your project is selected for the showcase, you will be contacted as soon as we review your application. Please wait to contact us regarding the status only if you have yet to hear from us within 7 days of submitting your application.
How Do I sponsor the event?
If you or your company would like to sponsor the event, please fill out the application to express your interest or Book a Meeting With Me!
