[ti]event[/ti] UNOVRCON SUMMER 2023

After more than a year since completing Beta Island, building up the starting settlement brick by brick, and activating all three Asper shrines, it’s finally time to gather in person for our first live event! We are happy to announce that our very first UNOVRCon will be held at the San Francisco Convention Center on September 1-4!

Our players are at the heart of what makes UNOVR great–a place where games are the common ground for connection and friendship. Whether you’re coming to hang out with friends you only ever get to see online, celebrating epic moments in the virtual world, exploring what’s on offer in the convention center halls, or eager to learn what’s next in the UNOVR universe, UNOVRCon is being created for you. It’s the community that has always made this game so special, and we can’t wait to see you all!

In the interest of accessibility, we are offering the following options:
