Unity Software's stock rose 5% for a second day after announcing early engine support for Meta's upcoming VR headset, allowing developers to start creating content ahead of the device's retail launch next spring. This early support positions Unity as a key platform for VR game development, but the stock's rally depends on actual developer adoption and game releases, which have not yet occurred. Unity's current growth is driven by advertising revenue, giving it financial flexibility to invest in VR. Investors will watch Unity's Q3 earnings and any signs of studios committing to Meta VR titles for further momentum.
