Historically, AWE USA has concentrated on the enterprise aspects of the XR market, with a bit of consumer focus. But this year, the event is shaking things up by embracing consumer XR game development and publishing.

Introducing the AWE Gaming Hub at this year’s event—a dedicated space designed to empower and fast-track success for XR game creators, developers, and studios. This program brings together the pivotal players fueling the XR gaming realm—from talented game developers and innovative content creators to media moguls, publishers, and savvy investors. Whether you’re an experienced XR developer looking to elevate your game or an up-and-coming creator gearing up to launch your first immersive venture, the AWE Gaming Hub is packed with connections, resources, and industry limelight.

Several exciting XR gaming powerhouses are already onboard for AWE USA 2025, including Another Axiom (the masterminds behind Gorilla Tag), Resolution Games, Mighty Coconut, Sinn Studio, Kluge Interactive, Flat2VR, and LIV.

On the main stage, attendees will hear from Jason Rubin, VP of Metaverse Experiences and Co-Founder of Naughty Dog. Expect a lineup of content creators in the Gaming Hub, featuring personalities like Cas & Chary, JayBratt, Matteo, Mack Falconer, TribeGreywolf, AtomBombBody, Techman Prime, and Gingas VR. Publishers and investors will be mingling in speed networking sessions and engaging discussions.

The Gaming Hub’s expanded schedule features sessions, workshops, and panels designed with game developers in mind. These offer fresh insights into XR development, funding, distribution, and growth. Be sure to explore the event’s Gaming Hub track for more information.

One of the highlight sessions, ‘XR Games Marketing 101’, will have five XR industry veterans—including Ben Lang, co-founder of Road to VR—sharing practical strategies for getting games noticed by consumers.
