If you ever wanted to see The Legend of Zelda in VR, but with DOOM-style gameplay imposed on it, then you might be surprised to find you aren’t alone in your rather specific tastes. An industrious modder ported the Legend of DOOM mod, which recreates the NES game’s iconic classic in the DOOM engine, to VR. YouTuber Sugary Noe posted a video showing the opening and first dungeon in a walkthrough showing the creation off (thanks, Nintendo Life).
After the opening plays out over a static screen, you find yourself standing in front of the cave where the famously helpful old man warns you against wandering the wilderness alone. Eye level is about midway up the stone walls, and while the 1980s textures don’t fare too well up close like this, it’s certainly an immersive take on the 2D environment.
