During the first PlayStation State of Play, Sony has announced that it is teaming with Marvel Games and Camouflaj to allow players to take on the role of the Armored Avenger in the PlayStation VR exclusive Marvel’s Iron Man VR.
“We’ve set our sights on not only giving the player thrilling moment-to-moment action,” states Camouflaj director Ryan Payton. “But also a deeply personal, and appropriately funny, narrative that puts players in Tony Stark’s armored shoes.”
“Since he first took flight in 1963, Iron Man has perfectly symbolized the evolving marriage between cutting-edge technology and humanity,” adds Marvel Games VP and Creative Director Bill Rosemann. “Now players, like the Armored Avenger himself, can jet through the skies and see the world through his helmet’s hi-tech HUD, while blasting away at threats that harness Tony Stark’s past to threaten Iron Man’s future.”

In “Marvel’s Iron Man VR,” the player, who plays as the genius inventor Tony Stark, confronts ghosts from his past—powerful forces who seek to ruin him and everything he stands for. By fully embracing the magic of PlayStation VR, players will come face-to-face with iconic allies and Super Villains as they jet around the globe on a heroic mission to save not only Stark Industries, but the world itself.
Marvel’s Iron Man VR is slated for release later this year.
