Jurassic World VR Expedition™
Jurassic World VR Expedition™ is an interactive cinematic virtual reality (VR) game that transports players to the visually stunning prehistoric jungles of Isla Nublar, where fans will engage in a film-inspired Jurassic World epic rescue adventure. Produced by VRC, Jurassic World VR Expedition was at more than 100 Dave & Buster’s family entertainment centers, making it the biggest location-based VR launch to date. The VR game launched ahead of Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom™, which arrived in theaters on June 22, 2018.
What Robert and his team have done for this project is groundbreaking. It represents a remarkable departure from the traditional approach to combining VFX and gameplay in VR. To achieve the level of cinematic visual integrity they would like to see in VR, they integrated a variety of filmmaking techniques to help complement established entertainment software approaches. Their VR content creation techniques have built a profound sense of presence through realism. You feel like you are actually there, in realistic jungle surroundings, in real time, in a breathtaking way, interacting with the actual characters, the actual dinosaurs from the Jurassic World films.
“‘Jurassic World VR Expedition’ is the ultimate wish fulfilled. We wanted to take people to Isla Nublar and visit Jurassic World, and here is where the power of VR presents its potential as a medium that is an extension of the film.”
“For many, this will be their wondrous introduction to VR, and ‘Jurassic World VR Expedition’ will transport fans in a more immersive way than they could imagine. Players will experience the dinosaurs—both the majestic and terrifying—first person.”
