HTC announced a partnership with Bandai Namco in order to produce virtual anime content for HTC’s Viveport. As of now, there are no reports as to what that anime content pertains to; however, the partnership aims at creating new animated content and intellectual property.
The content is scheduled to roll out over the coming months and aims to be immersive and encourage virtual social interactions.
Ozaki Masayuki, CEO of Bandai Namco Pictures said, “By combining the original animation planning and production know-how that we have cultivated over the years with HTC‘s advanced technological capabilities and strength as a communications platform, we will be able to create an environment where fans can enjoy experiences together, transcending physical limitations, as if they were diving directly into the world of our creations from anywhere in the world.”
