We are mostly more likely to know the figure of Hideo Kojima
through its Metal Gear Solid product which is divided into so many successful
series in the market. But for gamers who could have Playstation 2 first, his name
is also strongly associated with fantastic game mecha Zone of the Enders. The
super-fast mecha fight with cool design and dramatic scenes typical Kojima did
make it grow into a classic series that unfortunately to miss. Amid the fate of
this franchise's fate after Kojima's death, Konami has a separate project for
Zone of the Enders.
Present as a surprise on the main stage of Sony's press
conference for Tokyo Game Show 2017, Konami unexpectedly announced the latest
series for Zone of the Enders. But not a series that will continue the story or
the like, but the process of adaptation to turn it into a virtual reality game.
Named Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner Mars, the project handled by Cygames
will come with better visual quality, 4K resolution, new sound design, extra
features, and support for Playstation VR. Yes, in today's all developers
competing each other to make the game with VR mode do not want to be left
behind with the others. Release for PS4, Zone of the Enders Remaster will be
fully enjoyed in VR mode with PSVR.
From a short presentation released via video, Konami himself
mentioned that the whole game will be able to be sampled and completed in a
virtual reality format. Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner itself is scheduled
to be released in the upcoming 2018 spring for the Playstation 4 + Playstation
VR. There has been no news of whether he was heading for Western markets or
not. Reportedly this game is still in the process of refinement.
Maybe VR games in the future will show VR Dive mode like SAO
anime movie, full control sensation in game like real we are in battle, what do
you think your opinion?
