James Cameron's 'Titanic' is often cited as the premiere piece of art about the tragic ship, but 'Titanic: Honor & Glory' is an upcoming video game title that lets players walk through an accurate recreation of the doomed ship. Developed by Vintage Digital Revival, 'Titanic: Honor & Glory' aims to be one of the most faithful recreations of the passenger liner and is built to include every lavish detail in a digital space. To recreate the ship, the team at Vintage Digital Revival worked closely with historians and descendants to ensure total accuracy. The studio even hopes that the game may one day been used in schools as an educational tool.
Aside from exploring the vessel, 'Titanic: Honor & Glory' will take part in a mystery aboard the ship. The characters players interact with will include key historical figures, including captain E.J. Smith and Violet Jessop.
