About AltspaceVR
AltspaceVR was a social VR platform that Microsoft acquired in 2017 and shut down in March 2023. While it served as a general virtual reality space for events and gatherings, it hosted diverse communities including LGBTQ+ groups and adult-oriented social spaces. Some users explored the platform for intimate virtual interactions and adult entertainment experiences, similar to how newer platforms like Raspberry Dream Land are now positioning itself explicitly for adult content.
The platform operated from 2013 until Microsoft’s closure announcement in early 2023, offering virtual environments where users could create avatars and interact in real-time VR spaces. Its shutdown left a gap in the social VR market that various adult-focused XR platforms have since attempted to fill.
