In-Depth Look: Marvel’s ‘What If…?’ Highlights the Potential Benefits and Challenges of VR Games on Vision Pro - Road to VR
Hands-on: Marvel ‘What If…?’ Foreshadows the Possibilities & Pitfalls of VR Games on Vision Pro
Marvel's What If...? experience, debuting exclusively on Vision Pro tomorrow, promises to showcase the potential and limitations of immersive VR on the headset. Described as an "interactive Disney+ Original story," this production offers a polished narrative and casual gameplay powered by Vision Pro's hand-tracking. Developed by Marvel and ILM Immersive, it features high-quality visuals, sound, and voice acting, transporting players through various mediums including augmented and virtual reality.
Despite its innovation in using hand gestures for in-game actions like summoning shields or casting spells, the experience highlights current VR challenges—the interactions often feel distant and lack the tactile immersion that VR can uniquely offer. While Vision Pro's capacity for detailed interactions is evident, the absence of precise tracked controllers limits its immersive potential.
