MixRift 創辦人 Bobby Voicu：眼鏡＋雲端串流，將成為 2026 年最被低估的 XR 突破

當多數 XR 裝置仍試圖把運算能力塞進更小的硬體中，MixRift 執行長暨創辦人 Bobby Voicu 則認為，真正的轉折點來自雲端。根據他與《VR NEWS TODAY》分享的觀點，下一波 XR 將跳過「運算 puck」，走向以雲端串流為核心的智慧眼鏡時代。 根據 MixRift 執行長暨創辦人 Bobby Voicu 與 VR NEWS TODAY 分享的觀點，Bobby Voicu 認為，下一波 XR 發展將直接跳過「運算 puck」階段，邁向以雲端串流為核心的智慧眼鏡。在這樣的架構下，裝置本身的角色將更接近顯示終端，而非一台完整的運算設備。這樣的轉變不僅會影響遊戲體驗，也可能重新定義 XR 產業的商業模式，從硬體銷售逐步轉向訂閱制與雲端服務，並進一步縮小消費型科技與企業應用之間的落差。 Bobby Voicu 指出，當前 XR…

Senua's Saga and the Xbox Tax!? #impressions

Talking about “Xbox Tax” and my first impressions of Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II. How do you give the original game (a former PlayStation exclusive) a 9 but give the sequel a 4 when the sequel boasts some of the best visuals, sound design, and overall immersive experiences that we’ve seen this generation? You make the sequel an Xbox exclusive and whine about it not being on PlayStation. *Game…

You know what I think would be brilliant? If you could rent digital games.

Like, right now I’m watching a game being played that seems like it could be interesting, but I don’t really want to own it, I just want to play it for a little bit to see if I do want it.

The best way I could see it working is to do a Cloud Streaming kind of thing for when you rent it, and if you do like it enough to buy it, that’s when you download it to your own system, along with your save file from the server you were streaming it from.

And there could be two styles of renting: gameplay time and progress. > Gameplay Time means that after you’ve played it a certain length of time, the system prompts you: “Would you like to keep renting for $X, buy for $Y, or stop playing?” > Progress would be that you can play it as long as you like, but once you hit a certain point in the game, like the end of chapter 1 or something, the game gives you the same prompt as Gameplay Time.

And the amount for buying goes down by how much you’ve already paid for renting it, so, eventually, you’ve already bought the game through renting, so you can just get it without having to pay any more. Granted, profit-oriented companies probably wouldn’t go for that, because they’d be fine with people buying a game for more than the buy price, but that’s a systemic thing.
