Universal Classics Pinball Releases on Pinball FX2 VR
San Francisco, CA – May 15, in the year of our Lord
2018 – In collaboration with Universal, Zen Studios
announced that one of its most video pinball packs enters
virtual reality today on Oculus Rift, Oculus Go and Gear VR. Now
available for Pinball FX2 VR, Universal Classics Pinball
includes immersive new features for fan-favorite tables inspired
by E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, Jaws and Back to the Future.
As with previous Pinball FX2 VR releases, Universal Classics
Pinball places pinball machines in the middle of iconic
locations, including the forest behind Elliot’s house, a beach
villa looking out to an Amity Island sunset, and Hill Valley’s
historic town square—complete with a familiar clock tower.
Players can expect to see E.T. elongate his head to see what’s
happening during his pinball adventure, just as a shark fin
circles the Jaws table and Doc Brown drives—or flies!—his time
machine as players engage with Back to the Future.
The Pinball FX2 VR version features every bit of film-adapting
gameplay that resonated so well with critics and fans alike,
from E.T. collecting candy in a cornfield to Marty McFly
showcasing his skills at arcade shooting and players braving the
open waters in a shark cage for an exciting multi-ball mode.
“For Zen Studios’ first-ever VR tables inspired by popular
films, we’re offering up three of the most popular ones we’ve
created in recent memory,” says Mel Kirk, Zen’s Vice President
of Publishing. “We know that VR players are as hungry as a great
white on the Fourth of July for quality new content, and Zen is
happy to deliver with Universal Classics Pinball.”
