Viveport Infinity Subscription May Be $12.99, Take This Survey For A Free Month

viveport infinity

Viveport Infinity, the unlimited VR subscription tier for HTC’s storefront that launches on April 5th, 2019, is offering an entire free month to anyone that fills out this super quick and simple survey. Viveport Infinity was announced at CES earlier this year as a way to expand its subscription service from just a handful of games to the entire store’s 600+ game and app catalog.

Once you fill out the survey and provide your email, it says redemption codes for a free month will be provided via email on March 30th, just a few days before Viveport Infinity launches. In the fine print at the bottom it states you must do the survey between today, March 1st, and March 17th and the code must be redeemed by April 15th giving you two weeks of wiggle room.

Then if you keep reading, the fine print at the bottom actually seems to reveal the price as well:

“If you cancel the subscription during the 1 month trial period you will not be charged, and you will lose access to VIVEPORT Infinity content that you accessed during the trial period once the trial ends. Unless you cancel the subscription during the trial period you will automatically be charged a monthly subscription fee, currently $12.99 or £12.52 (plus taxes, where applicable) a month after the end of the trial period, and each month thereafter until you cancel your subscription. If you redeem the code before April 2, 2019, you will be charged a monthly subscription fee of $8.99 per month through the end of 2019 or until you cancel your subscription. To cancel your subscription open your “Account Settings” menu and follow the instructions there.”

So, it sounds like if you redeem the code ASAP you get a bit of a discount for the rest of the year, but the current price sounds like it’s $12.99 for everyone else. On the blog post for the survey today it actually says that if you’re a current subscriber to the non-Infinity subscription, then you will be upgraded to Infinity at no additional cost. That’s a really, really awesome move that will likely keep all current subscribers invested.

That’s a really good price point if $12.99/month is accurate. Basically the same cost as Netflix for unlimited access to over 600 VR apps and games.

When contacted for comment a representative from HTC Vive had the following to say:

We’ll be able to confirm Infinity pricing near GDC. We’ll have multiple options for existing and new subscribers to take advantage and get into Infinity at promotional pricing. We want to reward our existing Viveport subscribers and will have some great promos in store. More soon.

Viveport Infinity: Neues Bezahlmodell bietet unbegrenzten Zugriff auf VR-Titel

Auf der CES 2019 veröffentlichte HTC ein neues Bezahlmodell für seine Plattform Viveport. Mit Viveport Infinity erhalten Kunden für ein monatliches Entgelt Zugriff auf sämtliche VR-Inhalte des Stores. Dabei wird Cross-Plattform-Support für Vive-Brillen, Oculus Rift und die neue Vive Cosmos gewährleistet.

Viveport Infinity – Unbegrenzter Zugriff auf Viveport-Content mit neuem Abomodell

HTC führt mit Viveport Infinity ein neues Abomodell als Bezahloption für den Viveport ein. Damit bietet das Unternehmen seinen Abonnenten zukünftig die Option, auf Limitierungen zu verzichten und freien Zugriff auf sämtliche VR-Inhalte zu erhalten. Dabei kommen nicht nur Besitzer einer Vive-Brille auf ihre Kosten, auch Oculus-Rift- Nutzer können sich frei an der Auswahl bedienen.

Bisher konnte man in unterschiedliche Laufzeiten mehr oder weniger Zugriff auf den bereitgestellten Content erhalten:

Durch das Infinity-Abo steigert sich die Auswahl allerdings massiv von fünf monatlichen Titeln auf ungefähr fünfhundert VR-Erfahrungen. Somit liegt die Analogie zu einem Netflix- oder Spotify-Abo nahe.

Genaue Informationen über den Preis des neuen Abomodells wurden derzeit noch nicht veröffentlicht. Laut HTC soll es dabei jedoch um eine kostengünstige Variante handeln. Das neue Abo soll am 5. April 2019 zum offiziellen Vive Day erscheinen.

As it stands now, Viveport Subscription is available with a monthly fee ranging from $6.66 to $20 per month depending on the length of time you choose.

HTC Vive’s Subscription Service Goes Unlimited With Viveport Infinity

One of the core features of HTC Vive’s online retail platform Viveport has always been its subscription service, allowing gamers to pay a monthly fee to access five virtual reality (VR) titles per month. Today, as part of the company’s extensive CES press conference HTC Vive revealed Viveport Infinity, the platform’s first unlimited subscription service.

Viveport Infinity

“Today, we’re announcing our next step in Viveport’s evolution with Viveport Infinity,” said Rikard Steiber, President, Viveport in a statement. “When we first launched our Subscription service, we gave consumers the ability to try 5 titles a month. Now with Viveport Infinity, we’re offering our members the best value in VR content with 100x more choice, all at one low price.”

Viveport Infinity takes the videogame cap off, allowing members to delve into Viveport’s ever-growing library of VR experiences with unrestricted access, helping save them money in the process. Members can download and play any of the 500+ titles in the Viveport Infinity library with no restrictions.

The beauty of this service is that gamers will now have open rein to try VR experiences they may have avoided, or just not bothered with before. Whether that’s a short indie title or a bigger release that maybe didn’t hasn’t had amazing reviews but still seems worth a playthrough.

Viveport Infinity isn’t available just yet, HTC Vive will be launching the service as part of its annual Vive Day celebrations which take place on 5th April. You’ll be able to access Viveport Infinity across all current and future Vive devices as well as the Oculus Rift and other devices in the Wave Eco-system.

If you’ve not tried the Viveport Subscription then all new members get a 14-day free trial, after which they can sign up. HTC Vive hasn’t quoted a price for Viveport Infinity’s monthly membership, that’ll probably be revealed in April.

HTC Vive certainly hasn’t disappointed today, revealing the HTC Vive Pro Eye, a new enterprise-focused headset with integrated eye-tracking, the Vive Cosmos with inside-out tracking, and the Vive Reality System. Expect to see plenty more VR news coming from CES 2019 as the week continues, with VRFocus on the ground covering as much as possible.

CES 2019: HTC’s Viveport Infinity Subscription Will Give Unlimited Access To 500+ VR Apps

HTC revealed a new subscription tier for Viveport. Called Viveport Infinity, the service will give subscribers unlimited access to all content on Viveport.

The current Viveport subscription only allows for a limited number of titles to be played each month, based on the subscription period.

The Infinity subscription will be a radical change to the store’s offering, unlocking the entire store’s content. HTC seems to want Viveport to be the Netflix of VR.

With the newly announced Vive Cosmos headset seemingly dropping Steam as its default store for Viveport, the new subscription could be what HTC needs to keep users on its platform. Just like regular Viveport subscriptions however, Infinity also supports the Oculus Rift.

HTC didn’t reveal the pricing of the new service, but said it would be a “low price”. Given the pricing of the existing Viveport, we expect it to cost more than Netflix or Spotify however. But that’s to be expected, given the incredible amount of value this subscription will provide.
