What appeared to be a prank or rumour at first, has now come true.
Ubisoft, the maker of the upcoming South Park game The Fractured But Whole, has created a very different type of virtual reality headset. The firm calls it the Nosulus Rift, and it enables you to smell the often emitted gas from characters in the cartoon game.
In entertainment or enjoyment terms, we’re not sure how many people would actively seek out such an experience, but at Gamescom and gaming conventions in the future, that’s exactly what players will be able to do. It’s not going on general sale, so your nose is safe for now, but it really does exist.
As you can see, an (un)lucky few have already been trying it out.
This latest South Park adventure was revealed at E3 and comes on the heels of the huge success of South Park: The Stick Of Truth, which was released in 2014.
