Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge is a new VR adventure from Oculus and ILMxLAB

ILMxLAB has announced Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge, a new virtual reality experience being created in collaboration with Oculus Studios. It is coming out this year. The announcement didn’t reveal what platforms the title is coming to, although Oculus devices are a safe bet.

Star Wars has been a big part of VR, although it often brands its releases more as experiences instead of games, like with Trials on Tatooine and Vader Immortal. This story takes place between the events of The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker. It’s set on Batuu, the same planet that guests visit at Disneyland and Walt Disney World in their new Star Wars-themed lands, which are called Galaxy’s Edge. So, you know, now we’ll hear some tales from that place, I guess. That’s a nice bit of brand synergy for Disney.
