Star Wars is entering the realm of virtual reality in the form of Star Wars: Trials on Tatooine, a new “VR experiment” set to be released for the HTC Vive that basically looks like a dream come true.
A new trailer leaked online shows the upcoming game in action, with it featuring the Millennium Falcon landing on the sand-covered planet before the player begins deflecting Stormtroopers’ incoming laser fire with their lightsaber. Developed by Industrial Light & Magic, little is known about the game at the time of this writing, other than it looks to be basically everything our childhood selves dreamed of upon watching A New Hope.
Check out the trailer below:
Industrial Light & Magic also uploaded a lengthier video in which it staff members discuss working with the Star Wars license, along with their plans for virtual reality. The video also features some Star Wars-related VR footage, though it is uncertain whether it is from the same project, with it seemingly featuring The Force Awakens’ planet Jakku alongside Tatooine.
