I’m often thinking ‘the only thing that would improve this video game is having it strapped directly to my face’ and thus does the world of mods provide. Elden Ring, premium game of the year candidate, has gotten makeover from Luke Ross, a developer who has been making unofficial VR support for all sorts of games over the past few years. He’s worked on Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead Redemption 2, GTA5, and several others.
The main difference here is Elden Ring – and FromSoft’s catalog in general – really doesn’t take to being in first-person. At a nice, wide, third-person angle you can just about see what’s going on. Up-close-and-personal it’s a mess of clipping in and out of things, stuff in your way, and monstrous animations that weren’t really meant to be seen from this angle. That’s the first thing UploadVR says to accompany the gameplay footage uploaded today.
