Breaking Bad Is Coming Back as a Virtual Reality Experience

Prepare to follow in Walter White's footsteps.

No one watched Breaking Bad and felt the urge follow in Walter White's footsteps, but we just might get the chance anyway. The acclaimed TV show is returning with a leap into virtual reality. Prepare to put on a headset, enter a crime-filled world and get your New Mexico-set drama fix.

Thank Sony PlayStation's push to expand their VR realm beyond gaming, and thank Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan for continuing to keep adding to the series — first Better Call Saul, and now this. Alas, don't go expecting to step into Albuquerque, Los Pollos Hermanos or an underground lab just yet, with the project still in its early stages. A release date hasn't been announced, but it won't be coming to a console near you this year.

So, just what a Breaking Bad VR experience actually entail? Will you be throwing pizza onto a roof? Riding around in a campervan? Trying to pick non-poisoned packets of Stevia? Details are yet to be revealed — including whether it will recreate something from the show, or add to it — but it's safe to say you'll probably exclaim "yeah science!" at some point.
