That means the idea of the Oasis, a virtual reality universe central to the future and more vast than the physical Earth, is about to become a household concept. A popular board game becomes a completely natural social experience that unfolds in a stunningly beautiful lodge over a 3D animated Catan gameboard. Still, the social VR experience of Oculus, the headset owned by Facebook, a company worth $450 billion, leaves much to the imagination.

Rec Room, one of if not the largest social VR hub, introduced room-building just three months ago and already people have created 35,000 rooms.
