Meta Unveils New ‘Deadpool VR’ Game Featuring Neil Patrick Harris as Voice Actor

Oh boy, where to start? So, Twisted Pixel just spilled the beans on this wild new ride they’re calling Marvel’s Deadpool VR. And when I say wild, I mean like trying to eat soup with a fork — it’s messy, but somehow it works. Apparently, they’ll drop this madness “later this year.” And boom, Neil Patrick Harris is Deadpool. Didn’t see that coming. Seriously, I thought he’d be too busy dazzling folks on Broadway or something.

Anyway, Twisted Pixel’s been kind of chilling in the background since Meta snapped them up in 2022. But now, they’re back, baby! And if you’re on Quest 3 or 3S, lucky you. Everyone else? Eh, better luck next time. The trailer’s out there somewhere on the internet. Give it a whirl if you have a sec.

Okay, so picture this: our buddy Deadpool, being all Deadpool-y, gets sucked into this portal — Mojoworld or something, sounds kinda trippy. Next thing you know, there’s some sketchy contract action. You know the drill, right? Don’t read the fine print, get rich — or die trying? Cue a whirlwind tour through the Marvel universe, punching dudes in capes or whatever. Classic.

Twisted Pixel’s been, like, obsessed with getting Deadpool’s rash parkour/combat fusion right. It’s like they’ve bottled lightning here, if lightning was wearing a snazzy red suit. Ever played Path of the Warrior? No? Well, think Bruce Lee with jokes. Anyway, they’ve taken that vibe and amped it up to eleven.

Here’s the kicker: in this VR playground, if it pops into your mind, you can probably pull it off. Want to throw a freshly exploded limb at someone? Check. Care to shove an enemy face-first into a spinning propeller? Morbid, but yeah, check. You’ve got soldiers, demon dogs, lizard guys, and what sounds like some nightmare-inducing worms — they’re all fair game for your creative chaos.

Oh, and we got a sneak peek of this game’s early version. Was it polished? Not really. Did it leave a lasting impression? Absolutely. If you’re curious, there’s a full preview floating around. Check it out if you want to dive deeper into this digital chaos zone.
