Earlier this summer, we released the huge Bigscreen TV update and the fan-favorite Modern Cinema. Today, we’re adding the Retro Cinema, designed as a throwback to the theaters of the 70s & 80s.




For the next week, we have added 10 spooky TV channels from Pluto to the featured list. Join the event in Bigscreen… if you dare!

New TV channels include Fear Factor, Disney Channel, The Addams Family, the Asylum, Criss Angel: Mind Freak, Thrillers, Terror, and more.



This update also has a few bug fixes and improvements:

• fixed the microphone echo issue affecting Oculus Quest users
  
• made “Push to Talk” an optional feature on Oculus Quest (this will be available to all users in the future)
  
• added the “high fives” feature to Distraction-Free Mode
