By Stephany Nunneley

GDC Europe 2013 organizers have announced new next-gen and hardware talks for the event, including AMD, Sony, and Oculus Rift VR.

Oculus VR founder Palmer Luckey and VP of product Nate Mitchell will host a session titled: Virtual Reality Gaming and Game Development. The VR headset will also be playable in a booth on the show floor August 19 -20.

Sony’s Chris Ho and Richard Stenson will host a session titled: PlayStation Shading Language for PS4.

AMD developer relations manager Layla Mah session titled Powering the Next Generation of Graphics: The AMD Graphics Core Next Architecture will detail the architecture’s compute and functional units’ capabilities and since it is used in PS4 and Xbox One it should be an interesting session.

GDC Europe 2013 runs next month from August 19 to 21 alongside Gamescom.

Thanks, Gamasutra.
