Youtopia VR is a social world that brings users one step closer to the metaverse by connecting them to other incredible experiences that have already been created by talented VR developers.[1]
Features
Youtopia is the first social hub in virtual reality that connects users the other experiences created by VR developers. It allows users co-exist and communicate in the same virtual space.[2]
While the concept itself is nothing new, Youtopia stands out thanks to a high level of polish and an extensive set of features. The game has only been in development for a few months, but it comes with a smooth, intuitive user-interface, which is controlled via the keyboard and mouse.
A single mouse click brings up an action wheel and a virtual cursor, allowing users to change their avatar, access game settings, and perform many other actions.
Youtopia makes it possible to communicate with others through the use of the built-in audio chat. The interactive browser has become a staple of almost all virtual reality worlds, but the ability to download and launch other VR applications from inside the software is something truly unique. When users enter a third-party VR experience, their avatar remains present in the game, and other users can watch their head movements as they experience additional VR content from within Youtopia.
Last but not least, users can stream 360-degree YouTube content in private sessions or with friends and upcoming releases will also include Google Maps integration with the same functionality as the YouTube player.[3]
System Requirements
Youtopia VR works on Microsoft Windows 7 and up, Oculus DK1 and DK2.

- Right click to open the interface. If an interface is open, right click to close it.
