Facebook Horizon is Oculus VR’s Roblox-like social space

Facebook introduced its latest social platform at its Oculus Connect 6 developer conference today. Horizon is a shared VR world for Oculus Quest and Rift that is coming in 2020. Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg said that the company is building Horizon using its experience with traditional social platforms like Instagram and previous VR communities.

Horizon is more than just an immersive 3D chatroom. While you can meet up with friends and strangers in Horizon’s town square, you can also create your own spaces, games, and communities to connect to that hub.
