Marvel has announced a new VR game centred around Deadpool<\/a>, from the studio behind ‘Splosion Man and Comic Jumper.<\/p>\n

There are a huge number of Marvel games in development at the moment, including Marvel 1943: Rise Of Hydra<\/a> and a new fighting game from Arc System Works<\/a>, but now another has been added to the pile at Summer Game Fest.<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, it’s a VR game starring quippy anti-hero Deadpool, created by Twisted Pixel (‘Splosion Man) and Oculus Studios in collaboration with Marvel Games.<\/p>\n

Even more surprisingly, Deadpool has a brand new voice, in Neil Patrick Harris, best known for starring in How I Met Your Mother, Netflix<\/a>’s A Series Of Unfortunate Events, and Doogie Howser, M.D.<\/p>\n

Marvel’s Deadpool VR features a new original story, where the superhero is pulled into a portal to Mojoworld<\/a>. After he signs a dodgy contract without reading the fine print, he’s sent off to visit a bunch of locations from across the Marvel universe, facing villains both iconic and, as noted by the developers, ‘not-so-iconic’.<\/p>\n

The gameplay blends parkour and combat, with a style described as ‘if you can imagine it, you can probably do it’. Based on the trailer, you can shoot, throw your gun, wield enemies in a grappling beam, shove people against propellers, and skewer heads with your swords.<\/p>\n
