Oh boy, where to start with this one? Twisted Pixel, the folks who brought us those wild VR adventures, are back at it again. And this time, they’ve snagged everyone’s favorite anti-hero: Deadpool. Yeah, you heard that right—Deadpool in VR. It’s coming out sometime this year, exclusively on Quest 3 and 3S. Neil Patrick Harris is doing the voice. Can you believe it? I still can’t wrap my head around it.
So, apparently, Deadpool gets sucked into Mojoworld. Don’t know why, but it makes sense in a comic book way, doesn’t it? He sees a chance to make, like, loads of money. Again, typical Deadpool. Signs a shady contract without a second glance—who even reads those things? And off he goes on a whirlwind tour across the Marvel universe. Imagine icons, not-so-icons, and probably a few randoms thrown in for fun. It’s like Marvel in a blender.
Twisted Pixel’s been on this for years, tweaking that sweet mix of parkour and combat they nailed in Path of the Warrior. I bet they had a lot of coffee-fueled nights. In VR, it’s all about imagination. Sure, you can do the usual stab-shoot routine, but throw in Deadpool-style chaos? Punch with a grenade in hand? Toss your own blasted-off arm at enemies? That’s just the start. Suddenly, a spinning propeller isn’t just a hazard; it’s part of the strategy. Soldiers, demon dogs, humanoid lizards, wormy things—they’re all there. Quite the crowd, eh?
Anyway, we snuck a peek at an early version. It was, how do I put this? Messy and bloody, in a kind of “are we allowed to do this?” way. Curious? Go check it for yourself. If Deadpool doesn’t manage to offend everyone, is it really Deadpool?
