Oculus opens Explore API to all Gear VR developers, coming to Rift in 2018

Oculus announced at its Oculus Connect keynote event today that its Explore API will be available for all Gear VR developers. The API will enable devs to promote their content in the new Oculus Explore section that’s meant to help with app discoverability. It will be available for the Rift in 2018.

Using the Explore API, a developer can create Stories around their app or game. These can be used to showcase updates or announcements as well as deeplink to videos or specific content within an app.
