Lionsgate have announced that the VR experience based on the Keanu Reeves film John Wick is to be previewed next week at NYC’s Comic Con, where attendees will be treated to a 7 minute sneak peek of the Starbreeze developed title.
Part of Lionsgate’s efforts to move into the immersive content business, the virtual reality tie-in to their movie John Wick (2014), starring Keanu Reeves, has appeared on and off since its announcement in August of last year, but we’re still yet to get a handle on how the game, developed by Starbreeze, will shape up when it’s released late this year.
I wonder though if this whole VR thing is going to be a fad, or a fad that insisted on dying a long, slow death like 3D. I keep coming back to accessories and like I said in that article, people don’t like glasses, let alone headsets that have to balance the weight at the top of your head.
Another thing is that people generally like to watch things together and VR is quite impersonal. But who knows!
