Modder Jochen Leopold has crafted a VR mod for the 2002 classic Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. The mod itself is playable on the Oculus Rift and uses a gamepad for control instead of the Rift’s Oculus Touch controllers. Less than a month ago, the first Jedi Outcast VR version was released, but he’s not going to stop there. He’s still working on it and you can expect there to be more updates, more versions, and other details coming out.
From Jochen on the project:
“I was able to reuse a lot of code I wrote for the VR of Jedi Academy.
Currently there is NO Touch Controller . I’m not sure how much work it would be and if it is even possible.”
