EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
On September 27, 2019, Virtual Interactive Technologies Corp merged with
Advanced Interactive Gaming Inc, and its subsidiary Advanced Interactive Gaming
Ltd. (collectively "Advanced Interactive Gaming" or "AIG"), through a reverse
merger transaction. Advanced Interactive Gaming was founded in 2016 to provide
financing solutions for independent video game developers globally. Advanced
Interactive Gaming was deemed to be the accounting acquirer of the transaction
and will be the operating entity moving forward under the name of Virtual
Interactive Technologies Corp ("VRVR" or "the Company" or "we")
VRVR finances the development of video game projects to be released on various
popular gaming platforms in exchange for a royalty stream on the games. To date
the Company financed several gaming titles including Carmageddon Max Damage,
Carmageddon Crashers, Interplanetary: Enhanced Edition, Catch & Release and
Worbital. Collectively these games are distributed world-wide on various gaming
platforms including Sony PlayStation, Xbox, Steam and Oculus among others. In
addition to financing solutions, VRVR offers expertise in development solutions,
publishing and marketing video game products and is actively involved in the
early stages of VR/AR game development. VRVR continues to reinvest its royalty
income into growing its royalty contracts and intellectual property in the video
game development industry.
On December 1, 2021 the Company entered into an agreement with a production
entity for the services of Duane "Dog" Chapman, also known as "Dog the Bounty
Hunter." Pursuant to the agreement, the Company and Mr. Chapman will develop and
market a line of video games in cooperation with the other and will use Mr.
Chapman's name, image, and likeness in connection with the advertisement,
promotion, and sale of the video games.
The Company's strategy moving forward is to continue to invest in new game
development through partnerships and royalty contracts. Management believes that
there is significant opportunity in VR games given the relatively early stage in
the product cycle and the growing need for content to support VR hardware sales.
While the Company has historically participated mostly in the PC and console
market, it will continue to explore addition opportunities in the gaming space
as they present themselves. In addition, the VRVR may explore strategic
alliances and acquisitions in order to expand its business.
