Mozilla announced on Thursday it will shut down its “Firefox Reality” immersive browser platform, pulling it from virtual reality (VR) storefronts and removing future support for the application. We have some big news about the future of Firefox Reality We are proud to announce that Firefox Reality will live on at @igalia in the new Wolvic browser (@WolvicXR) Official @mozilla announcement here: https://t.co/TV9LXm4OnI pic.twitter.com/UuPIDd6WF1 — Mozilla Reality (@mozillareality) February 3, 2022Originally released in 2018, Firefox Reality enabled its VR headset users to explore webpages, perform searches, and enjoy browser-based content while inside an immersive 3D environment. pic.twitter.com/0WeuKPqdCr — Mozilla Hubs (@MozillaHubs) February 2, 2022Despite the loss of Firefox Reality, the MR development team is updating Mozilla Hubs continuously, thanks to its strong and responsive community. Igalia is working on a solution that will fill the void left by Firefox Reality named ‘Wolvic,’ an immersive web application that uses the same source code as the Firefox Reality platform. The application will stay in its beta stage, much like the “preview” version of Firefox Reality.
