We have yet to see the virtual reality space take off the way we had hoped it would, but Bethesda may be the company to take it to the next level. During their huge E3 press conference, the team finally showed off some more clips of both DOOM VFRÂ (PSVR and HTC Vive)Â and Fallout 4 VRÂ (October) in glorious VR. Devour the clips below.
While we knew both of these games were going to head to the HTC Vive eventually, I think we can all agree we were at least a little hesitant to get too excited about a platform that’s mostly unproven up to this point. But you have to give these fine folks credit: both of the clips shown off at least prove that the concept can be great if executed properly. The gameplay is definitely tailored to the virtual space.
I actually think both of these games are fantastic choices for the Oculus. When it comes to DOOM, the horror genre (I know it’s more action these days, but still) is so perfect for VR. Fighting demons will be about 1,000 times more terrifying. As for Fallout 4, gamers are already consumed in that world as is, so it only makes sense to allow fans to further immerse themselves. RIP spouses and family members of these fans.
Will you have the guts to play DOOM VFR? Are you willing to be consumed by Fallout 4…again? Will Bethesda be the first company to really knock it out of the park with AAA VR games? Drop your thoughts in the comments section below!
