Okay, so here’s a thing you didn’t know your life needed until now: Niantic Spatial dropped this quirky mixed reality pet game, called Hello, Dot, right onto Quest 3. It’s out of early access, which means, yeah, it’s ready for the big leagues, packed with all sorts of new bells and whistles.
Now, maybe I’m just weird, but they’re hyping it as a “mixed reality showcase” from their lineup of AR escapades. Remember Peridot back in 2023 on your phone? Yeah, same folks. Anyway—wait, where was I? Oh, right, they’ve got other stuff too, like Peridot Beyond for Snap Spectacles and this funky thing called SunnyTune for Apple Vision Pro. No clue why that name sticks in my brain.
Back to Hello, Dot! This thing is brimming with brand-spankin’ new features: think Dots with sass and quirks galore, a carnival-like arcade box where you can set up playdates with these little critters. What was I saying? Oh, and Gen AI-driven customization (like, you just talk to it and bam, your Dot’s a whole new beast).
Imagine a mini-game lineup with Dotball—something like dodgeball but with dots (obviously)—and Eating Contests. I dunno, maybe it’s the foodie in me but that sounds like a riot. You can win some in-game coins, splurge at the shop, kit your Dot out in the snazziest virtual duds. You know, if you’re into that sort of thing.
Asim Ahmed, this Global Product Marketing whiz, chimed in with, I guess you’d say, visionary vibes? He says Hello, Dot isn’t just a game—it’s a whole mixed reality trip, weaving digital with the real world like some kind of futuristic tapestry. Or something like that. Is it a bit dreamy? Sure, but sounds kinda cool too.
The latest twist: this Gen AI Dot customizer, where you grab a microphone, describe your Dot’s new look, and… dunk it into a magic paint bucket. For real. It’s like a craft project from another dimension.
Oh, and did I mention you can snag Hello, Dot over on the Horizon Store, free of charge? Exclusively for Quest 3 and 3S. So if you’re rolling with one of those, maybe give it a go. Your virtual pet kingdom awaits? Or doesn’t. Up to you.
