Punch Out!: VR Is a Virtual Reality boxing game for the Nintendo VR developed by both GamerAvenue Co. and Steli Entertainment which is the sequel to Punch Out!: Wii. Confirming revival of the Punch-Out!! series.
Plot[]
The game takes 2 years after the events of Punch Out!: Wii. Little Mac, now 19, had retired from boxing after sealing his place as the reigning champion of the World Video Boxing Association (The WVBA) and now lives in a 6 Story Apartment in Bronx, New York. He's still using the money from the tournament, is running out of it and he has no way to earn it. That is until Mac picks up the local newspaper, which states that the WVBA is having another tournament done and the prize money would be an immense 1,000,000 Dollars in cash. Motivated by the amount of prize money and how much he needs it, Little Mac calls Doc Louis to inform him about the tournament and starts training.
Gameplay[]
The game uses the VR motion sensor to determine the movement of the player using it. The Sensors will detect the players movements which Mac will imitate. The game does limit the movement of the player's feet, However the solution for it was the fact that you can dodge punches by swaying to one side. The patterns again are unique for each bister to defeat them and are harder to execute with the motion sensors.
