Popular mulitplayer sex world offers virtual reality experience—with or without a headset.

Joining the adult entertainment VR boom, Red Light Center [NSFW] has announced the creation of its own immersive erotic experience: the Red Light Center VR World—RLCvr, for short.

As it just launched last week, RLCvr now only features a strip club and an adult movie theater. In each, players can virtually walk around and interact with various features, including digital lap dances from some of the stars of HoloGirlsVR [NSFW].

According to an article at AVN.com: “Consumers have the opportunity to control the screen by pasting virtually any video link into the control panel. When the videos play, every person with an avatar in the region sees the video play. You can present, discuss or just hang out and watch.”

While RLCvr supports the big leagues of virtual reality—the HTC Vive and the Oculus Rift—users can also experience their virtual environments via regular old computer screens.

Understanding the need for expanding content, RLCvr plans to release new environments, sex games, and more in a few months.

To gain access, users must join the Red Light Center’s community and then install a Curio Browser. The good news is that RLCvr is free for members of HoloGirlsVR [NSFW] ($20/month). If you just want to join the new Red Light Center, the cost, at the time of publishing, is $15/month.

M.Christian (they/them) loves nothing better than exploring the intersections of sex and technology—and speculating on the future of both. A highly regarded erotica writer they have six novels,12 collections, 100+ short stories, and 25 anthologies as an editor to their name. Their non-fiction regularly appears in many sites, but they're most proud of being a regular contributor to Future of Sex.

Of their erotic fiction, Tristan Taormino said that “M.Christian is a literary stylist of the highest caliber: smart, funny, frightening, sexy—there's nothing [they] can't write about… and brilliantly.”

Reflecting their unique ability to sympathetically and convincingly write for a range of genders and sexual orientations, their stories have appeared in multiple editions of Best American Erotica, Best Gay Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica, The Mammoth Books of Erotica, and others. Their collection of gay erotic fiction, Dirty Words, was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

While a majority of their stories have been collected into books like Dirty Words, their fondness for combining sex and science fiction is clearly evident in collections that include Rude Mechanicals, Technorotica, Better Than The Real Thing, Skin Effect Effect, Bachelor Machine, and Hard Drive: The Best Sci-Fi Erotica of M.Christian.

As a novelist, M.Christian’s versatility is on full display with Running Dry, The Very Bloody Marys, Brushes, Painted Doll; and the somewhat controversial queer BDSM/horror/thrillers Finger's Breadth, and Me2.

M.Christian has worked on the industry’s production side as an Associate Publisher for Renaissance E Books and as a Publisher for Digital Parchment Services. The latter dedicated to celebrating the works of science-fiction legends such as William Rotsler, Jerome Bixby, Jody Scott, Arthur Byron Cover, Ernest Hogan, and James Van Hise.

Covering topics like BDSM safety, sexual education, senior sexuality concerns, queer and gender issues, plus reviewing a variety of sex tech products, M.Christian’s non-fiction has appeared on sites like Kinkly, Tickle.Life, Sexpert, Queer Majority, Sex for Every Body, and—of course—their ongoing work for Future of Sex.

If there’s anything M.Christian enjoys more than writing, it’s teaching. A featured presenter, sometimes with their friend Ralph Greco Jr, at national sex and BDSM events, they have lectured on kink play (with an emphasis on safety), polyamory, boosting sexual creativity, and erotica writing--for beginners or those wanting to go pro.

M.Christian is a cohost on two popular sex-education podcasts: Love’s Outer Limits with Dr. Amy Marsh and Licking Non-Vanilla with Ralph Greco, Jr.
