Could you build this?

No A VR version of a 2005 PC game requires reverse-engineering the game's binary and injecting stereo rendering and head tracking, which is specialized low-level work.

What it would actually take: The project needs to analyze the game's executable and rendering pipeline, hook the DirectX or OpenGL calls, render dual-eye stereo views, and map VR head tracking to the in-game camera. This takes graphics-engine reverse engineering, VR SDK expertise, and extensive testing against the original binary.
