TLDR
This study compares player responses while playing the same game in two conditions: room-scale VR and a conventional monitor, and shows that while VR does not necessarily provide a more intense horror experience than conventional setups, it is less impacted by pre-existing knowledge of game content, providing a longer-lasting intensity to the experience.
