I never expected Arnie to make it on to this site, but after all the localization He-man references and even Game of Thrones anything is possible

The DIVE will be held at the [https://www.tokyu-plaza.com/harakado/ harakado store] in Shibuya, Tokyo from June 17th through September 6th. The VR ride utilizes the meta quest 3 headset to provide a 360° viewing experience and guests will be guided by a heroic [[healslime]] named Homita; a non-VR version of the ride will be available for children under the age of 10 and those who cannot use VR headsets. Additionally there will be tactile immersion events that include full-scale replicas of [[Erdrick's Sword]], the [[Zenithian Sword]], and the [[Supreme Sword of Light]] as well as the bodies of [[slime]]s, the fur of a [[teeny sanguini]], and even the mouth of a [[lips]]. | The DIVE will be held at the [https://www.tokyu-plaza.com/harakado/ harakado store] in Shibuya, Tokyo from June 17th through September 6th.

==Trivia== | |||
*Series creator [[Yuji Horii]] first speculated about applying virtual reality to ''Dragon Quest'' in a roundtable interview with ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' creator Hironobu Sakaguchi, conducted in the first issue of [[V Jump]] magazine in July of 1993. Spurred on by Sakaguchi remarking that he would love to see hardware advance to the point of displaying enemies via holographic projection so that players could fight in three dimensions, Horii explained that an ideal VR experience would be one where the player is pulled into a world that is totally indistinguishable from reality and cited the events of the 1990 film ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_Recall_(1990_film) Total Recall]'' as an example. He praised the masterful legerdemain of a Shinjuku virtual theater for being able to create an immersive experience with nothing but clever visuals and moving chairs, which would be echoed 34 years later through the DIVE's use of rotating chairs and headsets<ref>Q: RPGの将来について、どうお考えかお聞かせ願いたいんですが。 | |||
堀井: いろんな方向性があると思いますがハードの進歩に期待できますよね。 | |||
坂口: 例えば、RPGを作るにしても、3Dで立体的に戦えるとかね。敵キャラがこう、ホログラフで浮き出て登場するとか。そんな機械が出たら最高ですけどね。 | |||
「CD-ROMでは、解くのに1年位かかる、RPGを作りたいですね。」 | |||
堀井: 映画の『トータル・リコール』じゃないけど、バーチャル・リアリティー、仮想現実の中でゲームをプレーできるってことになったら最高だよね。そんなハードが普及したらみんな現実とゲームの区別がつかなくなっちゃうでしょうね。あっちの世界にいっちゃって戻れなくなるとかね。いま、新宿でやっているバーチャルシアターでも、実際はちょっと椅子が動いているだけのからくりなんだけど、巧みな音響や映像であんなに臨場感が出るんだもんね。 | |||
坂口: RPGを作るならハードの限界に挑戦したいですよね。ひょっとしたら僕たちって、生まれてくるのがちょっと早かったのかもしれませんね。もうちょっと後に生まれたらこんなにすごいハードで遊べたのにって。(笑) | |||
堀井: 中途半端な時代に生まれたのかもしれませんね。 "The Super Talk Battle!", V Jump magazine issue 1</ref>. | |||
