A proof-of-concept for the HTC Vive
I’ve seen virtual reality developers convincingly achieve a sort of “living board game” effect with strategy games before, but not quite like this. That tablet interface for base-building is new to me.
This proof-of-concept from creatorÁdám Horváthshows how a classic real-time strategy title — in this case,Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2— might hold up in VR. “Well.” The answer is “well.” It was built in Unreal Engine 4 using remade-for-3D assets created by ModDB memberSly_Fox.
I’m not even aC&Cguy (my only real connection to the series can be traced back to an acquaintance in high school who was utterly obsessed withRed Alert 2) and I still think this looks sweet.
