StageTime, the virtual social app for connecting and sharing the joy of performing, opens its (virtual) doors to aspiring entertainers and partygoers worldwide on Meta Quest Thursday, January 16, 2025.
Step into a vibrant, virtual world bustling with pals, performances, and endless hours of entertainment. Design a custom avatar with full-body representation and automatic lip-syncing, then dive directly into the fun by taking command of the mic. Bring the house down with captivating performances, from quick-witted comedy sets to goosebump-worthy rock gigs.
Chill with friends and cheer on fellow superstars between sets. Turn on the camera thanks to the in-game LIV creator kit, which records and takes selfies in first, third, and landscape shots. Utilize YouTube integration to stream and share videos alongside friends in real time.
Hop into a lively cyberspace primed for singalongs, social interactions, and epic performances envisioned by an ex-software engineer from a top social VR platform, and creator of the leading VR karaoke space. Create memories and lasting connections in this immersive, virtual venue. Invite up to 10 friends into a bustling performance room and put on a rockin’ gig, funny standup act, or a heartfelt poetry recital.
Aspiring entertainers can quickly and easily get the party started. StageTime offers a zero friction process, placing players in public rooms without the need to set up an account, eliminating pesky barriers and allowing partygoers to immediately dive into the festivities. This seamless integration is one of many key features that sets StageTime apart from other social apps in the VR space. Customize an avatar fit for a superstar with multiple options for hair colors and styles, skin tones, accessories, and more.
Stage all-out performances, complete with full-body avatar representation. Vocal animations sync to each person’s voice, creating a seamless and captivating experience. Every twirl, tap, and move is rendered in VR. Take the spotlight for all to see, or sit back, enjoy others’ performances, and cheer them on along the way!
Using YouTube connectivity, StageTime allows users to sync their favorite videos to share with others in real time. Become the life of the party and pick any video to share with friends. StageTime allows seamless sync for each user, so there are no pesky delays or lag to drag down the party. The in-game LIV creator kit also offers a camera for recording and selfie options in first, third, and landscape perspectives.
The party continues following StageTime’s launch, as Virtuware’s vision is to continue providing support in the long-term. Fans of the social platform can look forward to a robust content roadmap, with plans to integrate new venues and environments, additional customization options for stellar avatar designs, and monetization with the ability to purchase avatar emotes, cosmetics, and more.
