Sony Online Entertainment announced today that new facial recognition and voice-modulation software is being implemented into their games, starting with EverQuest 2. Called SoEmote, the software suite will give players the ability to use a webcam and microphone to put their voice through various filters, and have the camera match their character's expressions to those of their actual face. For more information and first details, check out the trailer for SoEmote below.
The hope is that this will help players have a more immersive role playing experience. Are you interested in this? Which other SoE games would you like to see make use of this new software? For now there's no release date, with SoE only stating that it's "coming soon."
