Star Wars: The Force Awakens in Virtual Reality

2

To celebrate the latest part of Star Wars, Disney announced a virtual reality star wars film! It gives Star Wars fans the opportunity to participate in the film!

The release of the virtual reality experience of Star Wars VII is scheduled for  December 2 and is made in collaboration with Google and Verizon. It is the first time that Disney combines Google Cardboard and Virtual Reality with one of their films. It won’t be the last VR video we will see from Disney, since they invested millions in Jaunt earlier this year.

The Google Cardboard Virtual Reality app is published on the official Star Wars app and is available on both Android and iOS devices. Exclusive Star Wars Google Cardboard headsets will be available in Verizon stores in the US on December 2nd.

 

Robbert VR has been my passion since the days of the Virtual Boy. As an early adopter, I still treasure my Oculus Rift DK and Palmer Luckey's backers’ letter. Thank you for sharing this journey with me – the site and channel will remain online as a tribute to our shared love for VR and I'll try to post regularly.

  1. No it isn’t. THE HUNGER GAMES released its VR experience on YouTube VR for Google Cardboard earlier this month. And ‘THE DIVERGENT SERIES: INSURGENT’ released its app for Google Cardboard back in March.
