OtherSide has announced that it is researching Augmented Reality for use in Underworld Ascendant.
AR is different from Virtual Reality, in that it supplements your view of the real world rather than immersing you in a virtual world.
In a blog post, OtherSide discussed the possibility of including AR for something like lockpicking. "Currently the player uses the mouse to turn a lock tumbler displayed on the laptop screen. In the AR version the tumbler would be floating a foot in front of the player, and they would use their hand to rotate the tumbler until they heard the satisfying click of the lock springing open. It’s a parallel game mechanic, but here made much more tactile."
