Modders bring World of Warcraft to VR

There have been many mods over the years to make 3D games playable in VR. However, few of them offer 6 degrees of freedom with motion controls baked in. The developers behind the Flat2VR mod have been working on the technology for a decade at this point and recently, they brought out their World of Warcraft VR mod. 

The mod is packed with features that should appeal to VR enthusiasts, including head-tracked positional audio and analogue movement. It offers a unique take on the MMORPG genre, turning the game into an FPS-style experience.

However, there are some limitations to be aware of. The mod is only compatible with patch 3.3.5a, the last update to Wrath of the Lich King, making it incompatible with Classic or Modern WoW. Despite this, it remains a good option for those seeking a private VR trip in Azeroth.

Those interested in the mod can find it on GitHub. Discuss on our Facebook page, HERE.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
