A new amusement park in Utah called The Void promises to put you inside a video game, with technology that allows you to interact with virtual worlds in physical environments.
The company released its first teaser this week, and it looks pretty impressive.
Visitors to their Virtual Entertainment Centres (VECs) will wear a specialized Rapture head mounted display, a vest with haptic feedback mechanisms that responds to your environment and gloves that allow you to interact with virtual objects like buttons or weapons.
Each gaming “pod” lets you to sense things like elevation changes, air pressure, temperature, moisture and smell to make it feel as if you are really there.
“At THE VOID you will walk into new dimensions and experience worlds without limits,” the site claims. “From fighting intergalactic wars on alien planets, to casting spells in the darkest of dungeons, THE VOID presents the Future of Entertainment.”
The games also offer a co-op mode so you can experience the various worlds with other people.
