Facebook is aiming to build on its VR hardware launches of 2019 with an investment in virtual reality software. Facebook announced today that it has acquired Bay Area VR studio Sanzaru Games, the developer of Asgard’s Wrath, considered by many enthusiasts to be one of the Oculus Rift’s best games. Terms of the deal weren’t disclosed, but the studio will continue to operate its offices in the US and Canada with “the vast majority” of employees coming aboard following the acquisition, Facebook says. The 13-year-old game studio has created a total of four titles for the Oculus Rift, including Asgard’s Wrath and Marvel Powers United VR, both of which were at least partially funded by Oculus Studios.
