Virtual Reality allows an amazing level of immersion in virtual worlds. But when it comes to locomotion, the ability to travel into these worlds may involve various degrees of discomfort, from fatigue to kinetosis (motion sickness). In Assassin's Creed Nexus VR, the open worlds of the game provide great opportunities for players to explore, parkour, climb, fight or go stealth, all of which presented unique challenges when designing a comfortable and accessible experience.
