After playing two rounds of Survios‘ Raw Data virtual reality shooter on the HTC Vive, I was sweating. The two-player cooperative demo is one of the first to show that VR can be a multiplayer experience, which could be a critical component in helping this take off as a social experience.

VR is expected to be a $30 billion industry by 2020, according to Digi-Capital, and you can bet we’re going to see a ton of demos unveiled next week at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. Survios will show Raw Data at the Epic Games and SteamVR booths on the show floor.
