Defcon VR allows you to spectate Defcon games in the comfort of your own virtual War Room,' the company told members of its mailing list today.

Now, there's a new way to experience the horror: in virtual reality. ![]() The player which takes the fewest casualties wins, but the message is clear: There are no real winners in a nuclear war, as the death toll rises and the sounds of screaming can be heard in amongst the explosions. Players are put in control of a war room in which they must plot nuclear missile locations and defences, then upon reaching defence condition one (Defcon 1) the missiles fly. Units are represented by simple outlines which denote combat by exchanging small colored rocket icons and enjoy virtually no individual animation whatsoever. Released back in 2006 and well received by critics and gamers alike, Defcon is a strategic game based on the classic 1980s film Wargames. DEFCON is played exclusively on a map of the planet Earth, stylized into bright glowing lines which separate jet black landmasses from electric blue oceans. Introversion Software, best known for the Uplink Hollywood hacking simulator and recent strategy title Prison Architect, is dipping its toes into the virtual reality water with a prototype port of its nuke-'em-up Defcon.
