Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The widespread emergence of mobile devices (e.g., smartphones, tablets, notebook computers, etc.) has significantly transformed our ways of living. The use of smartphones and other mobile devices has become an essential part of our everyday life. With the aid of virtual reality technologies, traditional gaming perspectives have been transformed, leading to the convergence of various technologies affecting gaming culture and society. Gamers expect to have affordable, portable, competitive, dynamic, and reproducible environments to attract their attention, behavior, engagement, and immersion. New challenges and opportunities have emerged as virtual reality mobile gaming has become the next “big thing”.
The Special Issue on “Virtual Reality-Based Game Development with Mobile Device Platforms” is focused on addressing various challenges for virtual reality-based game development to enhance the gamer’s motivation, engagement, immersion, satisfaction, and level of interaction. It will bring together current achievements, findings, methodologies, theoretical studies, practical applications, high quality and state-of-the-art ideas and results, new technology, and experimental prototypes towards the development of virtual reality-based mobile games.
