Stellar Cafe, a game built around voice-first input and unscripted AI conversations with NPCs, arrives next week on Quest.<\/p>\n

First revealed in August, Stellar Cafe<\/a> is the upcoming game from AstroBeam<\/a>, a developer led by former Owlchemy Labs CEO Devin Reimer. It promises an experience built around voice-first input as you interact with robotic characters across a sci-fi caf\u00e9. AstroBeam states it’s using human-crafted NPCs that interpret your voice, providing real-time responses via large language models.<\/p>\n

As confirmed in today’s UploadVR Winter Showcase, it’s now heading to Meta Quest 2, 3, and 3S on December 11. While Reimer previously confirmed<\/a> to UploadVR that Stellar Cafe won’t be exclusive to Quest headsets, today’s announcement didn’t reveal anything further about additional platforms.<\/p>\n

The upcoming game only supports hand tracking controls, and AstroBeam’s using licensed technology from Owlchemy Labs. In our hands-on preview<\/a> back in August, we considered it \u201ca bold idea for a virtual reality game,\u201d comparing it to Job Simulator but if the older hit’s bots expected you to directly talk to them.<\/p>\n

Stellar Cafe reaches the wider Meta Quest<\/a> platform on December 11.<\/p>\n

Stellar Cafe Is Like Job Simulator But The Bots Expect You To Talk<\/p>\n

What if you could talk to Job Simulator\u2019s bots naturally? That\u2019s the promise of Stellar Cafe from AstroBeam.<\/p>\n
