Hastings returned to the stage and introduced the VR supporting equipment on the stage to the audience, the gimbal treadmill.

Only a handful of people in the audience have seen a gimbal treadmill, and most have even seen it once. When they heard that the universal treadmill could map the user's walking, running, jumping, squatting and other actions into the virtual scene under the premise of ensuring safety, they were shocked, and felt that it would be cool to play shooting games with the universal treadmill.

Next, Hastings invited Patrick Bach, the head of DICE Studio, the developer of "Battlefield", to the stage, and Bach explained the information and gameplay of "Battlefield VR" to the audience.

"Battlefield VR" did not make the entire "Battlefield" game into VR, but picked a small map of "Battlefield" and made a VR version. The game is played in a versus mode, where players need to fight each other in this enclosed space until finally one player, or one team, wins the game, and the whole game supports up to 32 players.

EA intends to make The Hunger Games into a VR game, creating a triple-A VR game, and the idea of "The Hunger Games" is a mode where players fight each other. DICE Studios made Battlefield VR a player-to-fight mode to test the waters of The Hunger Games and see how the market and players responded.

After Bach finished introducing the highlights of Battlefield VR, Hastings exclaimed, "Now I have Hollywood superstar Mr. Keanuri Weiss." ”

Hearing that Keanu Reeves was coming, the scene resounded with warm applause and cheers. The two film series starring Keanu Reeves, "The Matrix" and "Time Soldier", were made into games and were quite popular with fans of the game. Now that I heard that he was coming, the fans of the game were naturally warmly welcomed.

When Keanu Reeves walked out with a smile on his face, the cheers from the crowd almost collapsed the roof of the exhibition center.

Hastings said hello to Keanu Reeves, looked at the audience and said: "Last year, Summit Entertainment launched a movie "Fast Pursuit", the movie has a tense rhythm and smooth action, especially the hand-to-hand shootout, which is simply blood-pumping. After the release of the movie, it was decided to gamify "Fast Pursuit" and launch the "Fast Pursuit" game. But we're bringing Keanu up now, not to introduce him to Rush Kill, but to let him play Battlefield with us!" Speaking of this, Hastings raised his voice and said, "Gentlemen and girls, don't you want to have a game with the killer John Wick and compete him in Battlefield?"

Hastings' words caused the fans at the scene to scream wildly, and those fans who liked Keanu Reeves were even more crazy, letting out earth-shattering screams.

Hastings smiled and said, "Now I invite a few fans who have played Battlefield, you must have played Battlefield, otherwise you won't know how to operate." Keanu is a master, and if you're too vegetable, he'll kill him in one go, and you'll be very bored!

Hula raised an arm at the scene, and fans of "Battlefield" and Keanu Reeves shouted excitedly: "Pick me, choose me!"

Hastings selected nine fans from the audience, all of whom had played Battlefield. The fans of the game who were selected had a glint of excitement on their faces, and it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play Battlefield with Keanu Reeves.

Hastings divided nine fans into three groups and played against Keanu Reeves in small groups.

With the help of the staff, the three playmates put on special shoes, VR goggles and holographic headsets, and fastened their seat belts. After a brief familiarity with the operation of Battlefield VR, the trial began. Four players, with four robots, fight in the game.

Keanu Reeves trained in firearms and fighting before filming "Fast and Furious", and he played with guns at a very high level. In recent days, he has spent a lot of time getting familiar with Battlefield VR, and he is quite proficient in playing Battlefield VR, and the level is good. Although the three testers are veteran players of "Battlefield" and the level is quite high, "Battlefield VR" is a little different from ordinary "Battlefield" in terms of operation, and there is also a universal treadmill, which seems to be more jerky to play. Therefore, Keanu Reeves is completely abusing them when he fights them, and he will clean them up with three strikes and five divisions.

The second group of players came on the court with the same result, being brutally abused by Keanu Reeves.

The "Battlefield" players at the scene saw it itchy and couldn't wait to experience it in person, but they couldn't help it, they didn't get drawn, so they could only enjoy it offstage.

Although several of the players were jerky, the audience at the scene and watching the live stream had a great time, and they found this mode of players fighting each other very exciting, and it looked really fun!

One of the third group of playlists has his own VR equipment and often uses VR to play CS, and he is very comfortable playing Battlefield VR. After taking out one player and three robots, he went into a showdown with Keanu Reeves, and in the end, he took out Keanu Reeves and won a hard-fought victory.

The playtester stood on the stage and excitedly shouted, "I killed Keanu! I killed the killer John Wick!" After removing his eyes, he looked at Hastings and said expectantly: "I killed John Wick, I think he must be very unconvinced, and wants to play another game with me, so let's have another game!"

The audience burst into laughter, obviously wanting to play again, but said that John Wick was not convinced. Hastings laughed too, but he didn't agree: "Sorry, we don't have a limited amount of time for the press conference, so we can't give you more time to try it out." However, we have prepared eight machines in the exhibition hall on the first floor, which can play against eight people. The trial officially started at 12 o'clock at noon. Friends who are interested in VR games and "Battlefield VR" can try it!"

When the player heard that the booth on the first floor was available for trial at 12 o'clock, his spirit was shocked, and he immediately said, "I'll line up now!"

After the nine playtesters left the stage, the eyes of reporters and the audience were focused on Hastings. The functions of Super VR have been introduced, and the audience has already experienced it, and it is indeed an exciting product. Now there is only one question left, how much does Super VR really cost?

The audience, as well as many netizens who watched the live broadcast, are thinking, how much is Super VR? It should be very expensive, if the price is not too outrageous, I will definitely buy one!

At this time, Hastings revealed the answer: "VR is a high-tech product, but we believe that high-tech products should be high-tech, not expensive, VR should not be a toy for a few people, we want everyone to feel the charm of VR." So, we set a very low price for Super VR, the Super VR kit, which includes VR glasses, controllers, and holographic headsets, is only $499, and if you add the gimbal treadmill, it's $799!"

Wow!!

As soon as Hastings's words came out, there was an exclamation from the audience, and then the audience applauded. The price was simply unexpected, just too cheap. You must know that the VR equipment on the market is basically above $500, of which dollars. Compared with super VR, these VR are not products of the same era at all, but the price of super VR is a lot lower, this price is simply too conscientious, who can not applaud and cheer?

After hearing the offer of super VR, the reporters all felt that the battle between Google and Century Summit in VR should be won by Century Peak. If Super VR sells for $1,500 like Google Glass launched two years ago, Google still has a chance. But now that the peak of the century is only selling for $499, Google has no chance.

Century Summit has set super VR at this price, the main purpose is to promote and popularize VR, hoping to quickly establish a VR ecosystem. Zhang Ran knows that although the peak of the century is now leading in VR technology, this lead will not last long, as long as Google and they are trying their best to catch up, they will soon catch up.

Of all the competitors, Zhang Ran is the most jealous of Google. Google is a very strange company, which operates a variety of businesses including Google search, Google Maps, YouTube, artificial intelligence, Android system, etc., in the eyes of many people Google is synonymous with technology, but in fact, 90% of Google's revenue comes from advertising.

Of Google's more than 30,000 employees, only a few hundred work for the advertising business, while the rest of the employees, mainly engineers, are engaged in various scientific and research-related jobs. Google's tens of billions of dollars in annual advertising revenue, as well as its 20,000 engineers, guarantee that Google is ready to enter any field of interest.

As long as Google is optimistic about a certain area, it can mobilize engineers and quickly develop corresponding products, which are often free or almost free. When Google Play Mail, almost all the paid mailboxes in the world died, and when Google Play Browser, Microsoft and Firefox were abused to cry. Any technology company is miserable when it encounters Google, but it is difficult to defend against Google's attack, because Google's products are easy to use and cheap.

This time, Google's launch of carton glasses is also this tactic, wanting to use cheap VR to quickly seize the market and quickly establish an ecosystem, but what Google didn't expect was that the peak of the century made a breakthrough in technology, a generation ahead of ordinary VR. Century Summit has even proposed the concept of super VR to draw a line with Google's VR.

This game is undoubtedly won by the peak of the century, but Zhang Ran and the peak of the century both believe that the victory is temporary, and when Google dispatches engineers to focus on VR, it is only a matter of time before the technology catches up with the peak of the last century, and this time will not be too long. In order to survive the competition with giants such as Google and Amazon in the future, it is crucial to establish a VR ecosystem.

Therefore, the VR of the peak of the century cannot be too expensive, and it must quickly seize the market at a low price.

After Hastings finished introducing Super VR, it was finally EA's turn to release the game. What appears on the big screen is a video of a game. It's quite Borderlands style, and it's supposed to be a megacity in the future. Snipers, sappers, and drivers are in their positions and ready to take down a building. The huge truck drove up to the roof and was detonated by snipers......

The fans of the game were thunderous, but many reporters were quietly leaving. The media in the Internet circle are all aiming for the peak of the century and VR, and they are not interested in EA and EA's games. Now that VR has been released, the VR of the pinnacle of the century has beaten Google's carton glasses, which is definitely a big news sensation in the industry.

Five minutes later, the online edition of the Los Angeles Times was the first to publish the news: "At the beginning of this year, Century Summit sold Motorola's mobile phone business and announced its entry into the VR field, setting off a VR boom around the world. Today, the pinnacle of the century has finally launched its own VR product, which is not VR, but super VR. The performance is several times that of VR products on the market, the screen window effect has almost disappeared, the feeling of vertigo is greatly reduced, and the price is only $499, and it will be shipped in July this year. For the entire Internet industry, the launch of super VR may be similar to the launch of Apple's mobile phone, which will be a subversion, which means that the era of wearable computing has finally arrived!"
