Zit jij te wachten op Playstation VR of ben je nog niet helemaal overtuigd? Star Wars Battlefront krijgt een PS4 VR versie en deze kan er nog weleens voorzorgen dat je over die streep getrokken wordt.
Vice president of marketing John Koller heeft zich in een interview met Fortune hierover uitgelaten.
“We are working with EA, DICE, Lucasfilm, and Disney to try and make that experience something so special and so intrinsic to what’s in many people’s DNA, which is, ‘How can I be in that world of Star Wars?’ aldus Koller. “Battlefront is going to be one of those games that will really show gamers what it means to be in the world of VR. It’s very special. And just by the nature of it being designed as a VR experience, it’s going to be very different than the PlayStation 4 game.”
De battlefront VR versie komt exclusief naar Playstation VR, Koller liet zich ook even uit over de vergelijking van de traditionele consoles en de VR markt in relatie tot exclusieve titels
“The role of exclusive VR games is a little different than what we see in the general console space,” zei Koller. “For example, I don’t believe that there needs to be one particular killer app. There can be a range of killer apps. VR is so personal. It really depends on what experience that person wants and what they think is really great. That’s different than our (console) platform launches, where you generally can say, ‘That’s the game’ (that will help drive hardware sales).”
Momenteel staan er meer dan 50 games in de rij voor lancering op Playstation VR, en als we Koller kunnen geloven is Battlefront VR één van de 50.
“Star Wars is a great example of something that we will really own during that launch period,” aldus Koller. “But over time there will be games that launch, where we’ve been helping with the development process, that will be most special on PlayStation VR, whether it’s exclusive or not. It’s going to be best played on PlayStation VR.”
