HoloLens 2 and MWC
The release indicates that Microsoft is now happy with the level of polish, but it could also be a precursor to Mobile World Congress, which is just over a week away. At it, Microsoft is rumored to be revealing the HoloLens 2. A tweet by HoloLens creator Alex Kipman contained a short teaser video. The video is quite cryptic, containing a chip and few other flashes of what could be parts of HoloLens, but nothing solid.

Of course, there are likely to be other Mixed Reality devices launching at MWC, so it’s no indication in of itself. Whatever the case, it’s one more place for users to reach the app. You’re able to play interactive games like D&D or golf, hang out in Hogwarts, and more, so it’s worth a look if you have any of the major headsets. You can grab the app today from the Microsoft Store.
