Video games have been the primary focus of Oculus VR these past couple of years, but now the company is taking some serious steps to expand into other forms of entertainment. The Facebook-owned company is apparently partnering up with Felix & Paul Studios to start creating virtual reality movie experiences, with the partnership being called the “largest live-action VR deal to date.”
Virtual reality has often been touted as a sort of logical conclusion for computer gamers, but VR tech in general has a lot more to offer than that. That’s why Oculus is now talking a bit about its plans to get into the movie business and the company is partnering with Felix & Paul Studios. Even though the Oculus Rift still has a while to go before it’s finally released to consumers, the company behind it is explaining that it sees a bright future for VR in the wider entertainment field. To that end Oculus is partnering with Felix & Paul studios, which has created a number of 3D experiences, including Jurassic World. The collaboration is being described as the “largest live-action VR deal to date” and cements the Facebook-owned Oculus, as a player in the wider entertainment industry. With exciting partnerships left and right, the Oculus Rift, once it launches, seems poised to disrupt things in a bunch of fields. And we’re very excited about that.
