Wreck The Operating Room In 'Surgeon Simulator: ER' on PS VR

Operation is a classic board game where you use little tweezers to remove parts of the anatomy from a character as carefully as you can. It’s a simple game that can create incredibly tense moments that will be shattered by the loud buzz of a failed attempt. Virtual reality is paving the way for equally tense experiences where the stakes are raised a bit within the more realistic virtual spaces, and that’s what Surgeon Simulator: Experience Reality is doing. Bossa Studios isn’t making you wait very long to sterilize and start operating, either.

The PlayStation Experience saw the release of a handful of games during the first keynote and PS VR was not left out. Surgeon Simulator: ER is available right now for VR players to put on their gloves and start working on their patients. While Surgeon Simulator is more realistic than Operation, the game throws you into ridiculous, unsanitary dark humor. The game itself is essentially a physics sandbox and destruction simulator where you’re the surgeon destroying your workspace and the body before you, even in outer space and on an alien’s body.

You’re given a wealth of tools to pull teeth, cut out eyeballs, smash ribs, and more along with different modes to change the experience like trying to work in the dark or with no gravity. While this is a more humorous take, it wouldn’t be surprising to see a more serious use of a similar digital space to train students. YOU VR is a VR tool worth taking a look at to get an idea of an academic application of virtual reality as well.

Surgeon Simulator: ER is available right now on the PlayStation Network for $19.99 and will be coming to HTC Vive on December 5th.
