Abstract
Information may be provided to smartphones to allow users to display video game characters of other individuals in a social or other setting, outside of and/or independent of game play of the video game. The smartphones may read information, for example of a badge or a face, and use the information to obtain information of a visual representation of a virtual game character of another person. The information of the game character may also be used for displays in a virtual reality game, results of which may be used to update game character status in a video game.
