Possible Reality, an LA-based game development and publishing studio that was founded back in 2018, uses its own Intract technology to make gaming a more personal experience.
Taking a 2D photo of a player, the studio is able to superimpose their face on a 3D avatar within a game. Although the head shape and other physical features outside of the face remain the same, the technology is designed to be efficient and accessible, allowing more gamers to utilize it. If brought to fruition, Possible Reality's technology would function as a type of skin for pre-existing characters in different games—allowing for widespread use.
Currently, the company is speaking with investors to seek funding and partnerships for its creation.
