The rest of immersive platforms decreased last year their use by companies.
The Spanish Association of Producers and Developers of Video Games and Entertainment Software (DEV) with the support of ICEX Spain Export and Investments presented today the Spanish Video Game Development White Paper 2018, an edition that once again collects data on the use of immersive media by Spanish companies. Mixed reality has been the only medium that has achieved an increase in the number of developments over the previous year, with an increase of 6%. Virtual reality has decreased by 15% and increased by 5%, which means that there have been fewer developments of immersive games.
