As a result, Crytek has been making VR tools freely available to universities for development as part of its VR First initiative, which has so far seen hundreds universities join the programme out of the 400 that have so far expressed an interest. The payoff for Crytek is that it will capture students early in their careers by establishing Crytek on global campuses, and these students will hopefully generate real business once they graduate.
