Revealed at IGN Live, Into the Dead: Crimson Heights claims to be the first hyper reality horror game, taking the popular zombie franchise beyond traditional virtual reality standards.
The horror genre has anchored virtual reality platforms for years, delivering everything from atmospheric survival titles to frantic arcade shooters. Now, the team behind the long-running franchise is pushing past traditional boundaries. Revealed during IGN Live, Into the Dead: Crimson Heights is positioning itself as the first true hyper reality horror game, marking the fourth main entry in the popular zombie survival series.
