Acitivision has just announced a Call Of Duty XP event for fans in September, but more interestingly, a PlayStation VR experience for Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare will be playable at the event.

The blurb reads: "[Activities include an] immersive PlayStation VR Experience, where fans can feel what it's like to pilot a Jackal, the personal fighter jet in Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare." The event will also include the first look at Infinite Warfare's multiplayer, as well as hands-on time with Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered for attendees.

Would you be interested in experiencing Call Of Duty in VR? Let us know in the comments below.

Update (17:45PM BST): Activision's told Eurogamer.net that the PlayStation VR experience is just a one-off for the Call of Duty XP event, and is not part of the game. Hmm.

Can't believe I didn't see something like this coming. Makes so much sense.

I have a feeling it will be a last minute gimmick which would be a shame because firstly, it sounds kinda cool and is what I'd like to try in VR and secondly, gimmicky add-ons are sure fire death for console add ons.

@Rudy_Manchego This sounds something like a tech demo they made and now are patching into Infinite Warfare.

Sounds like the future is almost here where we can lug around a portable console and a portable VR set, and yet retain graphical prowess and huge screen potential. Awesomeness!

Short answer, yes.

I think at this point Activision will try anything to get IW in the hands of CoD fans after all the negative feedback they have been getting for it. Tacking on a gimmicky add on is not the best idea though.
