Microsoft joins Open 3D Foundation

The Open 3D Foundation, initiated by the Linux Foundation, announced earlier that Microsoft had joined as one of the main members, which will help promote the development of the 3D creative content market.

“Microsoft’s roots in creativity run deep, and we want to help creators wherever they are, whoever they are, and whatever platform they’re creating for. Having the Linux Foundation create the Open 3D Foundation is a fantastic step towards helping more creators everywhere and we are excited to be a part of it.”

In addition to Microsoft, Adobe, AWS, Huawei, Intel, Niantic, and Tencent are the main members of this foundation. The general principle of success includes 3A-level game development service provider AccelByte, Canadian game music software developer Audiokinetic, Backtrace, Huawei’s US research unit Futurewei, Red Hat, and other industry players.

By joining the Open 3D Foundation, Microsoft expressed its hope to continue to help promote the development of 3D content creation and to allow developers to create 3D content more conveniently at any location through any suitable platform. In addition to promoting the Open 3D Foundation, the Linux Foundation also promotes the open 3D engine technology. In this way, more game content developers and content creators can use the open-use 3D engine technology to develop more imaginative ideas and create 3D content that can be used by more people.
