Spider-Man: Homecoming VR Experience Drops June 30, Trailer Released

In two weeks, we’ll get to feel what it’s like to become Spider-Man, when Spider-Man: Homecoming VR drops on all major VR platforms. Sony Pictures’ VR division has produced an intense VR experience leading up to the release of Spider-Man: Homecoming in theaters on July 7. Check out the announcement trailer above.

According to the press release, in this VR experience we’ll learn the ins and outs of the fancy new Spider-Man suit provided by Tony Stark and Stark Industries. We’ll have to master various types of web shots in order to complete fast-paced targeting trials. From the look of the trailer, and from the sound of the press release, this VR experience will be more focused on web-slinging than web-swinging. Taking prolonged drops, hurdling toward the city streets and swinging from building to building in VR sounds like it could definitely cost us our lunch, so this might be a little more appropriate.

The announcement also states that we’ll be aiming to take down Vulture, so expect a flashy “boss fight” as well. I think you may actually get a quick glimpse of that final showdown toward the very end of the trailer.

“Spider-Man is the most beloved superhero in the world, so we knew Spider-Man: Homecoming VR had to be something special. Fans can wear the suit, fire the new web shooters – THWIP! – and swing through the air in a faceoff with The Vulture,” said Jake Zim, Senior Vice President, Virtual Reality at Sony Pictures in a statement. “It’s every fan’s fantasy turned into virtual reality.”

Spider-Man: Homecoming VR will be releasing on June 30 for pretty much every major VR platform, including PlayStation VR, HTC Vive, and Oculus Rift. If you don’t own any of those headsets, don’t worry. You’ll get your chance to try it out at select Cinemark Theaters across the country.

Just don’t forget to mind your surroundings. In your web-slinging frenzy you don’t want to accidentally web-slug someone in the face.
