By Ivan Potocki Feb 21, 2018 TechnologyNetEnt's Gonzo's Quest VR is the first virtual reality slot fully available for play without any third-party applications and it should become available by summer 2018.NetEnt, one of the absolute leaders in the world of casino games development, always strives to keep up the pace with the latest technological and other relevant advancements . The company has once again shown its dedication to remaining on top of the industry by using the opportunity at this year's ICE Totally Gaming to showcase their first full-fledged virtual reality slot.
Old Gonzo in New Apparel
Instead of developing a whole new game, NetEnt took one of their already popular games to represent their VR efforts. The game in question is Gonzo's Quest, a hugely popular slot following adventures of Spanish conquistador Gonzalo Pizzaro in his quest for the City of Gold, Eldorado.
Gonzo’s Quest VR sticks to the original slot premise but introduces the element of virtual reality. According to NetEnt, this is the first VR slot fully available for play through a web browser interface, without requiring players to download any third-party software. Visitors at ICE 2018 had an opportunity to witness first-hand everything the new and improved Gonzo’s Quest slot has to offer.
State of the Art Technology at Work
To make it possible for the game to be available via a web browser interface, NetEnt used the latest VR technology available at the moment. Of course, players still need to have a VR headset to be able to enjoy the game but the access has been made as simple as possible.
Gonzo’s Quest VR allows players to actually enter the world of Gonzalo Pizzaro and experience the adventure together with him instead of being passive observers like before. The game was first presented at ICE 2017, but the version showcased a couple of weeks ago is almost ready for the deployment. NetEnt expects the Gonzo’s Quest VR slot will be available for play by summer 2018, potentially starting a new era of online gambling.
