🚀 Exciting MRTK Updates!

The Mixed Reality Toolkit is now its own independent org on GitHub. @Microsoft's commitment continues, plus a new steering committee with @magicleap and @Qualcomm which also hired most of the talent from the #MRTK team. 🙏

Microsoft committed to HoloLens 2 and Mixed Reality

On behalf of the Mixed Reality team at Microsoft, I wanted to share some important context and insights on the Mixed Reality program at Microsoft. The intent of this note is to help provide clarity to this community on our commitment to HoloLens 2 and the broader Mixed Reality program.   We continue...

I've just learned that Microsoft has fired the entire MRTK team and it is also going to shutdown AltspaceVR soon. Very sad news, I had a great experience using MRTK in a couple of Unity-based VR projects and was eager to see the latest updates. Hopefully the team will be able to find better opportunities elsewhere 😢

Microsoft has laid off entire teams behind Virtual, Mixed Reality, and HoloLens

HoloLens, Virtual Reality, and Mixed Reality are all but dead at Microsoft.

Hey Steve... One of the few companies that could take MRTK under their wings is Qualcomm. MRTK is a must have for XR app (meaning non-game) development, which is an important area for Qualcomm to support to catalyze growth in the overall XR space. Maybe you can pull some strings?

Complete meltdown for #XR companies today as Microsoft fired their team developing #MRTK.

Is anyone aware of community efforts to maintain it?

András VelvártJan 20, 2023

I'm truly sorry for the #MRTK team. Layoffs are always tough,but they were so close to the end of a multi-year effort of a new major version - which would've been important not just to Hololens, but the entire XR industry.

Feeling all gloomy about Microsoft's XR efforts now.
