Rez Infinite Features 'Experimental' Area X, Best To "See, And Hear, For Yourself"
The PlayStation VR supporting Rez Infinite has a very special experiment going on inside it called Area X, which is an all-new creation that hopes to be a bit bonkers.
"Hopefully, if we’ve done our job right, Area X is something that’s hard to put into words…" teased the PlayStation.Blog announcing what Area X is, sort of.
"Area X is Rez, but it’s also not Rez… it’s something new."
"Like classic Rez, Area X is a designed to be a focused, replayable experience, that uses simple shooting mechanics as a means to induce “synesthesia,” an effect where perceiving something with one sense triggers another sense – like you can “see sounds,” or “hear colours”, they explained, pointing to Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky.
"Our goal was to create something that evoked the same excitement as Rez, but at the same time, something that felt unique. Something new. Something special all its own."
Rez Infinite releases on PlayStation 4 October 13th, 2016.
