The Company Behind Voxelus.com and Cryptocurrency Voxels (VOX) Rebrands to Address Bolder Vision and Broader Opportunity in Cloud VR Gaming, Developing New Game to Showcase Infrastructure

SAN FRANCISCO, UNITED STATES AND BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA – JANUARY 15, 2018 – Voxelus Studios, Inc., creator of Voxelus.com, the world’s leading virtual reality world builder and marketplace, and the cryptocurrency Voxels (VOX), announced the expansion of the company to embrace broader opportunities in VR and Crypto by starting R&D to build a cloud VR gaming infrastructure utilizing blockchain-enabled VR rendering.  Related to this expanded, bolder vision, the company is rebranding to RevolutionVR, Inc. and Voxels tokens will soon become RevolutionVR (RVR) tokens to reflect their utilization in games and products beyond the Voxelus platform. The Voxel will be rebranded to the RVR token in the following months after the company rebrand and after work with exchanges and partners is completed, the ticker will change from $VOX to $RVR and when this is in effect it will be announced in a following press release.  The company also announced the forthcoming release of its new VR game, Xtraction Royale, to showcase the capabilities of the RevolutionVR infrastructure.

RevolutionVR’s mission is to bring VR gaming to players all over the world without requiring each to have a high-end computer in the home – necessary today to deliver great immersive experiences over headsets and related gear – but expensive and used infrequently.  With today’s game designers pushing the boundaries to deliver ever-more compelling gaming experiences, even the most powerful home computers can struggle with rendering VR.

RevolutionVR and the RVR token aims to address gamers PC expense and gameplay inefficiency through cloud gaming infrastructure allowing VR rendering to be handled in the cloud via the blockchain.  RevolutionVR graphics servers will render VR utilizing cloud connected powerful computers that are distributed around the world creating an accessible service to a broader base of consumers.  As a result of delivering VR games through the RevolutionVR cloud streaming infrastructure, gamers will be able to experience advanced gameplay on VR headsets and related gear that will be less expensive, portable, and more powerful than the home PC-tethered solutions required today.

To demonstrate the power and capabilities of the RevolutionVR infrastructure, the company is developing Xtraction Royale, its new VR game. Xtraction Royale is an upcoming Battle Royale virtual reality experience developed using the award winning Unreal Engine 4 that will place you against other players in a fight to escape an island and win RVR Tokens.  Xtraction Royale is aimed to be released as a Steam Early Access game for Windows PCs compatible with Oculus Rift and HTC Vive VR headsets during 2018. Expecting a 1.0 final release by early 2019.

“In order for high quality immersive VR experiences to be accessible to anyone, anywhere rendering and compute technology must be cloud-based and integrated with responsive, dynamic streaming solutions to make the economics practical for both creators and consumers,” said Martin Repetto, CEO of RevolutionVR, Inc.  “As a VR gaming technology company we understand that only by utilizing the blockchain and expanding the application of our Voxel token, now to become the RVR token, can we solve the VR game industry’s biggest technology challenges.”

RevolutionVR’s development and implementation of its VR gaming infrastructure will be supported by a partnership with the VideoCoin Network, a blockchain-powered global infrastructure for the encoding, storage, and distribution of video. The VideoCoin Network and its token, the VideoCoin (VID), were recently announced and are supported by many of the biggest names in crypto and entertainment.

RevolutionVR will work closely with the architects of the VideoCoin Network in the evolution of RVR as a useful proof of work token. “The blockchain is the new architecture of cloud computing.  It is enabling exciting new applications and capabilities making incredibly efficient use of these global computational resources,” said Halsey Minor, majority shareholder of RevolutionVR and head of the VideoCoin Network.  “Together, the VideoCoin Network and RevolutionVR are writing the next chapter of entertainment and media. For me this is more exciting than the days when we dreamed the future of corporate computing as we launched salesforce.com.”

It's better to buy it when the price is low.
If you like it.

Yep, that make sense. You can buy a bit more to average down the price you bought in, and/or just wait until it move up again. Should be many news coming soon.
But, this guy thinks it's a shitcoin, and he would still buy it...

I believe in the success of vox  . because i bought it

because it shitcoin.

Even schoolboy can make it with unreal engine. Still overvalued. I wait when price drop to 0.2 and maybe I buy some.

I bought a vox at $ 0.8. Why is the current price falling sharply ??

VOX is now listed at TradeSatoshi

I think looking some project with AR will be good than more AR.
VR only for the game, sitting in a place, going to broke face . AR is versatile, can be used continuously when moving, when working, apply more for life.

I played fruit ninja on the HTC vive and Rush of Blood on the ps4 vr this week and wow...  Have to say this just might be the future of gaming. was way better than I thought it would be.  Also went under sea on the PS4 and it was incredible

Im waiting for football to be over so i have more free time to play some of these games

I'm holding a big bag of VOX.

Whoever becomes the dominant VR player will be worth tens of billions.

Vox has a solid shot to become that.

No progress. Where great events that coming...?

It went down quite a lot from ATH already (0.8$). Plus there will be some announcements soon enough so it should raise again. I wouldn't sell right now.

I have some VOX in my coinimi wallet should I sell or hold? wha'ts the plan for this coin next year?

I know it rebranding, but what the band will partnership? I still have following them on Twitter, can you tell me know more? Thanks
