In visionOS 2, there are new features for Group Activities, particularly in the context of SharePlay. One of the notable updates is the ability to create custom spatial templates. This allows developers to have complete control over the placement of spatial Personas relative to the shared scene, which can enhance the social experience in apps. For example, in a chess app, you can have two players seated across from each other with spectators on the side, or in a card game, place the dealer across from the players. This flexibility in spatial arrangement is a new addition in visionOS 2, enabling more unique and tailored social experiences.
