XRGuide Launches as the Curated Directory for Immersive VR, AR & XR Experiences

XRGuide — the global portal to immersive experiences — launches publicly, offering a curated catalog of VR, AR, mixed reality, and spatial computing experiences across every major platform.

XRGuide is a comprehensive, curated directory of immersive experiences spanning virtual reality, augmented reality, mixed reality, spatial computing, and the immersive web. Built by Evo at Realitycraft, XRGuide catalogs hundreds of worlds, events, and creators across platforms including Meta Quest, Apple Vision Pro, PSVR2, Steam VR, VRChat, WebXR, and more.

The platform features an ethical content framework inspired by the XR Guild Principles, ensuring all listed experiences meet standards for quality, accessibility, and responsible design. Creators can claim verified artist profiles, submit worlds and events, and connect with a growing community of immersive experience builders.

XRGuide includes curated collections for education, arts & culture, museum XR, spatial film, hand-tracking experiences, teen-appropriate content, and more — making it easy for educators, families, and enthusiasts to discover the best of what immersive technology has to offer.

Evo, creator of XRGuide and award-winning worldbuilder, will be speaking and presenting new works at AWE 2026 (Augmented World Expo) in Long Beach, CA in June 2026, showcasing XRGuide and the future of curated immersive discovery.
