Jurassic World VR shoves your face in T. Rex's screaming maw – CNET
People sometimes talk about how virtual reality tricks your “lizard brain,” but this is something else entirely. As soon as you put on a headset to watch “Jurassic World: Blue,” you know a T. Rex is coming for you — just because it’s predictable doesn’t make the gigantic screaming jaws inches from your face any less unsettling.
Thursday, Facebook’s virtual-reality division Oculus released the T. Rex-starring second episode of “Jurassic World: Blue,” which combined with the first installment creates a roughly nine-minute VR experience where you see Isla Nublar side-by-side with velociraptor Blue. The release, which is available on Oculus Rift, Oculus Go, and Gear VR, is timed ahead of the wide release of “Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom” later this month.
Both episodes include animation and visual effects from Industrial Light & Magic, as well as sound by Headspace Studio.
