Gunslingers
GAMING EXPERIENCE - META HORIZON MR
A proper Gunslingers Duel in MR!
Who Will Draw Fast Enough to Win the Wild West Showdown?
TEASER
Draw fast. Aim with precision. Dodge bullets like Neo.
Up to four players can face off in epic duels–just like in the wild wild west! In this MR experience you can test your reflexes and precision against your friends—or practice on a training dummy!
Brief
Gunslingers was born from the success of the Wild West Saloon Duel mini-game. Our challenge was to expand that feature into a fully immersive, standalone MR experience that would keep players coming back for more.
APproach
We built on the excitement of the original Duel mini-game by creating a unique multiplayer experience for up to four players.
Those who enter the dueling arena shrink to fit the environment, while spectators are left towering outside, observing the action. This creates a fun, dynamic interaction between players and spectators, enhancing the gameplay with plenty of hilarious moments.
Our goal was to bring the high-stakes drama of the wild west into the immersive world of MR with smooth, intuitive gameplay and a touch of humor.
