This isn’t the first in a series of PS VR interpretations of Black Sabbath songs. What it is, is something even better: an opportunity to pretend that you’re super-rich and incredibly clever! Oh, and also there’s a flying suit of armour involved. Given all those elements, it would have been easy for Camouflaj to have thrown together a halfbaked piece of fan bait, but happily that’s not what happened here.
This is so much more than a virtual-reality shooting range. Iron Man VR offers a full-fat Tony Stark experience, letting you walk (well, teleport) in Tony’s Guccis in between flying around in a militarised onesie. Although telling an original story, the script and character designs take their cues more from the MCU than the cartoons and comics, and they work very well. The actors, too, all do a wonderful job, to the point where picking out just one or two feels unfair. We must applaud Josh Keaton’s Tony Stark for successfully stepping out from Robert Downey Jr’s shadow, though.
