Description: Rec Room is shutting down for good -- the social VR platform that racked up 150 million players and once hit a $3.5 billion valuation is killing the servers on June 1st at noon Pacific after admitting they never cracked sustainable profits no matter how many custom rooms or locker room parties they hosted. Ten years of user-created chaos, cross-platform hangs on Quest PSVR and beyond, and the devs still watched costs swallow revenue while the broader VR market and gaming headwinds piled on -- yeah congrats to everyone who built worlds in there because new accounts friend requests and monetized creator stuff are already locked out with tokens and payouts ending soon.
