Gaming Gone Too Far

Item #: SCP-4002

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-4002 is to be kept in locker 15673 at Site 12. Any individuals/groups wishing to test SCP-4002 must obtain clearance from the site director, and any computers and other materials/objects used in testing must be incinerated.
(Objects/lifeforms produced by SCP-4002 may be retained for observation with permission from the containment supervisor.)

Item Description: SCP-4002 is a virtual reality (VR) headset similar in construction to a HTC Vive
with a 6 In. USB cable extending from the underside. A label with the words "Wondertainment Inc. GamerVerse 3000" is permanently adhered to the side, and a button labelled "Enter the GamerVerse" is attached to the left eye assembly. When SCP-4002 is plugged into a computer running a game through the Steam service, it will provide a VR rendition of the game, regardless of whether VR is actually supported. If the "Enter the GamerVerse" button is pressed during use, the user will be replaced with a character from the game, with the user taking the character's place. These "swaps" generally coincide with the user's favorite character in the selected game. If SCP-4002 is placed on an inanimate object and the button pressed, it will be "swapped" with a similar object from the game.

Item History: SCP-4002 was discovered when Harrison ██████ attempted to play "Resident Evil" in his college dorm using SCP-4002. Harrison was "swapped" with a zombie from the game, wich proceeded to attack several students on campus. The Foundation intercepted a student's 911 call, the zombie was neutralized, and ammnestetics were dispersed throughout the campus.
Agents discovered SCP-4002 connected to Harrison's laptop during a search of his room.
Unfortunately the laptop's battery had died and Harrison was not present in-game upon restart.

+ Addendum 1-1: Testing Logs

Test #	Game	Input	Output	Notes
1	Five Nights At Freddy's	Subject D-2478: caucasian male, 29	"Foxy" NPC	Level completed, subject not present on next level. Tests indicated "Foxy" "behaved exactly as it does in game."

4	Hello Neighbor!	Subject D-6570: Asian female, 25	Player Avatar	Subject was quickly caught by "The Neighbor" and, unlike other subjects, remained in-game upon respawn. researchers theorize this was due to the lack of an actual "death" option in the game.
