The Assassin's Creed Mirage Edition of the OWO Haptic Gaming System comes equipped with the patented OWO Skin, 20 gel pads, an 'OWO device,' a game code, a charging cable and a storage pouch. This innovative system is fully compatible with PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of the game, ensuring a seamless experience for players across different platforms.
The vest itself boasts a unique Mirage aesthetic and is constructed from lightweight lycra. Integrated with high conductivity electrodes and haptic pads, the vest allows wearers to experience a diverse range of sensations across their torso and arms, enhancing the overall gaming immersion.
Notably, the system is entirely wireless, providing players with unrestricted movement during gameplay. With a battery life expected to be around eight hours, the Assassin's Creed Mirage Edition ensures extended gaming sessions without interruption, aligning with the performance of OWO's previously released Founders Edition.
The haptic sensations can be conveniently managed through the My OWO smartphone app. Users have the flexibility to customize their settings and adjust the feedback intensity as required.
Assasin's Creed Mirage will launch on Oct. 12. Meanwhile, the haptic vest is still not available for pre-order and its price has not yet been revealed. OWO's original version of the system was 499€ (around $560).
