XR
Recently, a certain new technology called XR (miXed Reality) has become very popular in Hexagon. Part of XR is virtual and part is digital, with the real world sometimes being influenced by the virtual world. An example of this technology is miXR, which looks similar to a gyrosphere where the user steps in and once the entrance closes, the session starts. User can no longer tell that they are inside a miXR and can smell, touch, feel and taste things just like in the real world. Some XR sessions have a dark turn however and it has been reported that certain people have been killed inside miXR or that they disappear or the items they brought inside appear in some other place. Noone is certain who made the XR and miXRs, but the technology is highly advanced and it has appeared in Hexagon very suddenly.
