50 games set to launch alongside the HTC Vive on April 5

Chet Faliszek, virtual reality evangelist at Valve has stated that 50 different game developers already have games loaded up in SteamVR for the HTC Vive’s launch on April 5. A full list of games wasn’t shared, but HTC Vive owners should have more than enough games to keep them entertained.

While having 50 games that can be played with the HTC Vive is an impressive number, none of the titles will be exclusives. In an effort to help increase adoption of VR, Valve wants to make sure that there are as few barriers to entry as possible for consumers. Since the HTC Vive offers unique features which allow you to walk around and use motion tracking controllers, there are VR titles which will offer a better experience when used with the Vive. But there’s nothing stopping developers from offering a slightly different experience for those who own and use the Oculus Rift or other VR headsets.

“We have no exclusives,” Faliszek says. “We don’t think that’s a good thing for the industry, especially in VR where we’re starting out with a promise of presence after so many years. We want to do everything we can to make sure VR succeeds, regardless of the platform. I don’t think a customer ever thinks a platform-exclusive game is a good thing.”
