An Assassin’s Creed haptic gaming suit from OWO lets you experience the Ubisoft game like never before
An Assassin’s Creed haptic gaming suit lets you truly feel like you’re living in the world of the Ubisoft game, as we got to try one out at E3 2023. Created by gaming accessory maker OWO, the haptic gaming suit uses a combination of sensors, actuators, and some seriously advanced software to provide a wide range of sensations to the player.
The suit uses an array of tactile and impact feedback to make you feel like you’re actually inside the game world – whether it’s the thrill of climbing, the sensation of running, or the impact of a sword fight. With the haptic gaming suit, you can truly feel like you’re inside the world of Assassin’s Creed: Mirage like never before – and that’s just the start.
OWO already has dozens of other titles that it can support with its technology, incorporating haptic feedback into games like Fortnite, Apex Legends, and even PUBG. But Assassin’s Creed: Mirage compatibility is a major boon for the technology, giving players the chance to really feel like they’re living the life of an assassin.
We had the chance to try out the Assassin’s Creed: Mirage haptic gaming suit, and we can honestly say that it’s unlike anything we’ve ever played with before. The suit provides tactile feedback of varying intensities and sensations, meaning that you can actually feel yourself getting hit, stabbed, or falling.
It’s a startlingly real sensation, and one that truly brings the world of the game to life. Whether you’re running through the bustling medina of Masyaf or engaging in a sword fight, the haptic feedback amplifies everything – from the impact of jumping off a balcony to the feeling of being stabbed. It’s truly a new level of physicality and engagement, and it’s a bit like stepping into the shoes of the assassin, living the game like it’s a reality.
If you’re interested in trying the Assassin’s Creed: Mirage haptic gaming suit, sadly it doesn’t look like you’ll be able to just pop into your nearest GAME store and give it a go. But if you’re interested in the technology behind it, and what it could mean for the future of gaming, you should definitely check out our breakdown of haptic feedback, and how it’s shaping the future of gaming.
