French video game publisher Ubisoft announced on Monday that a virtual reality version ofAssassin’s Creed, one of the most popular series in its catalog since its launch in 2007, will be available by the end of the year.
“Being able to feel what it’s like to become a master assassin is going to be a huge draw for gamers,” David Votypka, creative director for games, told AFP during a presentation for Ubisoft Forward in Los Angeles.
“It’s a good choice for virtual reality,” where the games that work best “are obviously the ones with a lot” of physical challenges, which allows “to do something different and better in some ways,” said estimated M.Votypka.
Will play Assassin’s Creed means lots of climbing, jumping from building to building, racing, fighting and many other opportunities to get adrenaline rushes.
A team at Ubisoft worked to ensure that people who are prone to nausea or easily disoriented are not too roughed up, by adding features that allow characters to “teleport” from one place to another, for example. .
The designers also tried to soften the violence of the murder scenes, so that they were fast, by controlling where the victims might be hit, and by excluding any use of torture.
To the saga Assassin’s Creed has already been adapted into comics and cinema in 2016, illustrating Ubisoft’s strategy to adapt its productions for other media.
The game will be available on Meta’s latest virtual reality headsets, known as Quest, formerly Oculus.
Virtual reality is supposed to give relief to the plot of this successful game, which already often centered around modern protagonists entering their own virtual historical world, via the memories of their ancestors.
Players will see through the virtual eyes of Ezio Auditore Ezio Auditore, who died in 1524 in Florence, Italy, during the early Renaissance, one of the main characters of the series.
They will also find Kassandra in ancient Greece, and Connor in colonial America.
Ubisoft also presented on Monday Assassin’s Creed Miragea new episode to play on video game consoles and personal computers, whose release is scheduled for October 12, when it was initially expected for the end of 2022.
