HTC’s newest virtual reality games include Ping-Pong in VR

HTC kicked off the Game Developers Conference with demos of new apps, including a VRSports app that lets you play Ping-Pong in virtual reality on the HTC Vive VR headset.

The titles will join the 1,300 that are already available on the Vive, which was voted the top development platform for VR based on a survey by the GDC. HTC is creating the titles both internally and sourcing them from external sources in order to boost demand for VR, which is off to a somewhat slow start.
