When Bethesda showed a limited demo ofFallout 4 in virtual reality (VR) during the 2016 Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), it impressed gaming critics and enthusiasts alike. Not only would any first-person shooter game in a VR format be noteworthy, this was an installment in the acclaimedFallout series. It was enough to get any gamers trigger finger twitching or, in this case, pulling a virtual trigger. <\/p>\n
For this years E3, Bethesda has promised not just a limited demo of the successful open-world, first-person shooter game, but a complete and uncompromisedFallout 4 experience with a VR treatment. This has been confirmed by both Bethesda game designer Todd Howard and marketing VP Peter Hines. <\/p>\n
We have an opportunity to make something really unique. Wed rather do that than make some other tiny experience, Howard told Uploadlast November. I dont think thats what people want from us. <\/p>\n
More recently, in an on-camera interview with gaming personality Hip Hop Gamer, Hines again confirmedFallout 4 VR. He also claimed that Howard told him it would be the craziest thing youve ever seen and revealed that the game would be ready to demo at E3: <\/p>\n
I talked to Todd the other day and I was like, Hey hows Fallout 4 [VR] coming? and he said, Pete, Fallout 4 VR is the most incredible thing youve ever seen in your life. You cant even imagine what its like playing in VR and how realistic it looks with everywhere you turn your head. Its gonna blow your mind. [] We will have it at E3. <\/p>\n
Fallout 4 VR is expected to come out for the HTC Vive this year. When it does, it will be the first open-world game thats been overhauled for a full-blown VR experience at that scale. <\/p>\n
While gaming is the most common application for VR, it certainly isnt the only one. Recently, VR has been used in the fields of healthcare and medicine its even helped a blind person see for the first time. Its also been used to help with criminal investigations, teach students, andtrain astronauts for missions.People can now do everything fromtour their future kitchens toexplore Google Earthin VR, so while development of the technology itself may be coming in trickles, it is definitely helping people experience the world in ways theyve never been able to before. <\/p>\n
