A new Star Wars Battlefront VR Experience is coming to the highly anticipated PlayStation VR, an exclusive game being developed by DICE, EA, and Lucasfilm.
For those who’ve played Star Wars Battlefront’s Flight Squadron mode and wished they could really feel what it would be like get into the cockpit of an X-Wing, the chance might be coming in the near future. At GDC during the PlayStation VR keynote, a new Star Wars: Battlefront VR Experience was announced, coming exclusively to PSVR.
The announcement capped off the conference led by Andrew House, President and Group CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment:
This is not the same game as Star Wars: Trials of Tatooine, a separate “Cinematic Experience” as it is being called, which is in development with Lucasfilm and Industrial Light and Magic for the HTC Vive VR hardware.
“We at PlayStation are thrilled to be partnering with our friends EA and LucasFilm to create something all new for PlayStation VR. This will be a Star Wars Battlefront gaming experience like nothing else; coming only to PlayStation VR from the talented team at DICE, where players can transport themselves to a galaxy far far way.”
No more details were given, but PlayStation tweeted out the news soon afterward as well:
