Lucasfilm-owned ILMxLAB announced in May that last year's Oculus VR exclusive, the Star Wars TV series Vader Immortal, would be coming to Sony PlayStation VR this summer. During yesterday's State of Play broadcast, the developers announced that they would release the action movie on August 25th.
It is worth noting that Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series consists of three chapters, and all of them, as well as the training mode βLightsaber Dojoβ, will be released immediately on PS VR. The events of the game take place between the films "Star Wars. Episode III: Revenge of the Sith" and "Rogue One. Star Wars: Stories.
The action takes place on the lava-covered planet Mustafar, where the fortress of Darth Vader is located. During your stay in this unfavorable world, the main character, a smuggler, will have to explore the fortress, unravel the ancient mysteries of the planet and learn how to wield the Force. A companion droid named ZOE3 will help you on your adventures.
The PlayStation VR version of the game is being developed by ILMxLAB in collaboration with Black Shamrock. Even under normal conditions, the process of creating can be very difficult and exhausting, and the pandemic and the need to constantly stay at home have made it even more difficult. But the teams did it, and now they are ready to please PS VR owners with the results of their work.
The project was announced back in 2016 at Celebration Europe, and in September 2018 the first teaser was published. For the plot of Vader Immortal meets American screenwriter David Goyer (David Goyer), known, for example, for his work on Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy. In terms of gameplay, ILMxLAB's creation is not just a virtual reality movie, but an award-winning fully interactive entertainment experience.
