Shipping Godot VR and Porting to PSVR2: A Partial Post Mortem
Shipping Godot VR and Porting to PSVR2: A Partial Post Mortem micro 18 July 2026 Claire Blackshaw TLDR: Written version of the talk I gave at Develop Brighton 2026. Yes Godot can ship commercial VR, we paid roughly £80k in early adopter tax to do it. War stories from rebuilding Godot's core, the community PS5/PSVR2 port with George Marques and André Ewald, why I ended up writing a whole new render server for 4.7, and a call to arms for platform holders and render programmers.
