If you have played The Mage’s Tale, then The Wizards will look very similar to you when you first strap on your PSVR headset. Both employ a first-person point of view in which you see a pair of disembodied hands floating in front of you, and in both you play as a wizard who casts ranged spells as your primary attack. And also in both, you traverse through a linear series of levels killing enemies rather than a quest-based open-world like you might see in Skyrim VR.

Video games have always been a tool to allow us to become something beyond the realm of possibility. We can become a gallant knight, part of a seedy shadow organization, or a superhero. Virtual reality took that one step further by allowing us to step into those shoes, to truly become stranded on an alien planet or caught in the middle of a huge shootout. Who, then, wouldn’t want to become a battle mage, shooting an array of spells from their hands as they defend the lands from an invasion of evil forces? It’s that very fantasy that The Wizards seeks to fulfill.

The greatest draw of virtual reality is the possibility of immersing us daydreaming nerds into the most varied scenarios that our frail minds can imagine. Being able to become a powerful spellcaster in a medieval VR realm full of orcs and dragons isn’t exactly a new idea though.

Not a lot, to be fair…
