The developers of the sports VR game Racket: NX have entered into a partnership with the International Racquetball Federation. The goal is to become an Olympic discipline.

 

Racket: NX is a physically challenging cyber racquetball in which players hit a virtual ball against colored surfaces on a wall in order to clear all the surfaces. New maneuvers and special areas expand and improve the game mechanics. Thanks to the multiplayer mode, you can compete with other players.

 

Racket: Nx is not like a video game, it feels like the sports facility of the future is integrated into your four walls. The physics of the bat and ball are modeled so accurately and plausibly that you quickly forget that you are actually standing only in the middle of the room with virtual reality glasses on your head and a controller in your hand.

 

The game is well received by virtual reality users: according to Asaf Ronen, 150,000 players have played it at the moment. Ronen is the head of the Israeli studio One Hamsa, which developed Racket: NX.

 

 

Virtual Olympiad without VR

 

One Hamsa and the International Racquetball Federation (IRF) have entered into a partnership aimed at bringing the VR game Olympic recognition. The IRF, based in Colorado Spring — is a sports association recognized by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) that represents more than 80 countries.

 

From May to June, the IOC tested the Digital Sports Games Olympiad for the first time, the so-calledFive games were selected from the disciplines: baseball, cycling, rowing, sailing and motorsport, of which only two can be attributed to physical and none to virtual reality, although the latter would be particularly suitable.

 

 

Big goals

 

One Hamsa and the IRF are currently working on promoting Racket: NX to the next Olympic Virtual Series. The long-term goal is the recognition of the Olympic discipline.

 

“When we realized what this combination could mean not only for our association, but for the entire rocket sport, we immediately jumped at it. This will change the rules of the game for us and for world sports, ” says IRF President Osvaldo Maggi.
