Yeah, Kinect Star Wars was amazing (to laugh at). I'm sure the VR one will be quality (shite) as well.

You need to show me something worth a damn before I jump-in on a game. Doing teaser trailers isn't something to gloat at.

Meh, doesn't really interest me.

Just hope this doesn't take up too much of Ninja Theory's time.

So Xbox 1 exclusive ?

At least they should add a "I'm Ben Solo,Solo,I'm Ben Solo,Solo ... " song for it.

@BassMan: agreed. What looks so good about it? Why is part of the teaser showing a person put on a VR headset? Do people mistakenly put the goggles on their feet?

Arent they a MS studio now? Why are they still making games as 3rd party?

@Vatusus: MS has said they would allow any project begun before the acquisition to finish. Hence we happy few was multiplat and published by Gearbox even though MS already bought the studio.

I read Ninja Theory was already working on a VR game.

Geez guys, you don't think a great studio like Ninja Theory could make something compelling for VR?

Wait. I wonder if this is what MS is funding. If so, they're planning on doing VR after all?

Ninja Theory is not making this game, they're collaborating on it with ILMxLAB. Think of Crystal Dynamics involvement with Shadow of the Tomb Raider while Eidos Montreal was actually the one developing it. The studio also has about 150 employees under Microsoft now whereas during Hellblade's development it was around 15 employees. With that they have leeway to work on a multitude of projects, their work on Hellblade VR was excellent which makes it likely that ILMxLAB requested their help on this project.

oh ok

Kinect and VR are nothing alike. You can go out to a real life field and walk around a huge Star Wars scene in this experience.

Ninja Theory are heavily focusing on VR independently from Microsoft. This is their 4th VR title. Though one of them previously was for The Void location based VR.

That being said, Microsoft will still most likely have VR support on their next console.

This is not a Ninja Theory game, this is a game created by ILMxLAB. Ninja Theory is collaborating with them on this, most likely helping with the VR function as it was so well done with Hellblade.

OP's thread is not accurate.

I’m lost:

1. Isn’t Ninja Theory an MS property

2. Xbox doesn’t even have a VR

3. Doesn’t EA hold the rights to publish Star Wars games?

I think this is great this just goes against everything I’ve heard up to now.

Ninja Theory + Star Wars + Vader focus = Winning x 10^infinity.

...and teasers are generally exactly that; teases. They show nothing.

Brilliant strategic move by Phil Spencer as usual. Now PSVR owner had no choice but buy a PC with Oculus Rift to experience this, as even the Xbone X cannot play VR.

This is a Quest title rather than a Rift title. Though it may be available on Rift as well, no one knows yet.

Why would they segregate this? its from the same company and Rift and Quest is just the same thing minus the wires. Business is weird sometimes

It helps them push the Oculus Quest platform which is the more mainstream appealing of the two.

Im not sure about the exclusivity deal they have but I cant see why it wouldn't at least work on PSVR if they are advertising it for their upcoming standalone headset; consider it GearVR with 6dof tracking and motion controllers as the games dont run from the beef of a PC they run from a built in mobile device. The headset and controllers are set to retail at $399 so it cant be anything special.

Because the xb1x+2 hasn't come released yet, so they have to work on something.
